The "D) People perceive objects as a whole" statement best describes an abductive reasoning. The abductive reasoning often has incomplete information as the base of its reasoning and the conclusion for this type of reasoning is not absolute. There will always be additional pieces of evidence and factors that could change the conclusion of this reasoning. Therefore<span> D statement is the most suitable answer.</span>

What is the relationship between the masses of the objects and the gravitational force between them
irga5000 [103]

The relationship between the masses of the object and the gravitational force between them is a direct relationship

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by  the equation:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between them

We observe that:

- The gravitational force is proportional to the masses of the two objects, m1 and m2, so if the masses increase, the force will increase as well (so, this is a direct relationship)

- The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation between the objects, so if the distance is increased, the force will decrease (so, this is an inverse relationship)

A blow-dryer and a vacuum cleaner each operate with a voltage of 120 V. The current rating of the blow-dryer is 12 A, while that
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

a) 1450watts

b) 564watts

c) 1.11

Explanation:

Power consumed = IV

I is the current rating

V is the operating voltage

If a blow-dryer and a vacuum cleaner each operate with a voltage of 120 V and the current rating of the blow-dryer is 12 A, while that of the vacuum cleaner is 4.7 A then their individual power rating is calculated thus;

a) For blow-dryer

Operating voltage = 120V

Its current rating = 12A

Power consumed = IV

= 120×12

= 1440watts

b) For vacuum cleaner:

Operating voltage is the same as that of blow dryer = 120V

Its current rating = 4.7A

Power consumed = IV

= 120×4.7

= 564watts

c) Energy used = Power consumed × time taken

Energy used = Power × time

Energy used by blow dryer = 1440×20×60

= 1,728,000Joules

Energy used up by vacuum cleaner = 564×46×60

= 564×2760

= 1,556,640Joules

Ratio of the energy used by the blow-dryer in 20 minutes to the energy used by the vacuum cleaner in 46 minutes will be 1,728,000/1,556,640 = 1.11

A starship blasts past the earth at 2.0*10^8 m/s .Just after passing the earth, the starship fires a laser beam out its back of
Vilka [71]

Answer:

at the speed of light (c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s)

Explanation:

The second postulate of the theory of the special relativity from Einstein states that:

"The speed of light in free space has the same value c in all inertial frames of reference, where c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s"

This means that it doesn't matter if the observer is moving or not relative to the source of ligth: he will always observe light moving at the same speed, c.

In this problem, we have a starship emitting a laser beam (which is an electromagnetic wave, so it travels at the speed of light). The startship is moving relative to the Earth with a speed of 2.0*10^8 m/s: however, this is irrelevant for the exercise, because according to the postulate we mentioned above, an observer on Earth will observe the laser beam approaching Earth with a speed of c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s.
