Which of the following scientific terms has the most evidence and observations?

1 answer:

7 0

The correct answer should be B. a scientific law. A hypothesis is a belief by the scientist that may or may not be proven so it exists before evidence and observation, while a theory comes later. However, a law is observation itself and is always evidence of itself. There is no belief or lack of knowledge as to what will happen when it comes to laws. The law of action and reaction has plenty evidence and can easily be observed.

Through which Earth layer are S waves not transmitted?

Rus_ich [418]

S-waves passing from the mantle to the core are absorbed because shear wavescannot be transmitted through liquids.

Hope this helps!

Where would a boat produce the highest concentration of carbon monoxide?

mr_godi [17]

A boat would produce the highest concentration of carbon monoxide in the exhaust system.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that is slightly less dense than air. It is toxic to hemoglobic animals (both invertebrate and vertebrate, including humans) when encountered in concentrations above about 35 ppm.

1. A mass suspended from a spring oscillates vertically with amplitude of 15 cm. At what distance from the equilibrium position

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

The value of the distance is $\bf{14.52~cm}$ .

Explanation:

The velocity of a particle(v) executing SHM is

$v = \omega \sqrt{A^{2} - x^{2}}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`~(1)$

where, $\omega$ is the angular frequency, $A$ is the amplitude of the oscillation and $x$ is the displacement of the particle at any instant of time.

The velocity of the particle will be maximum when the particle will cross its equilibrium position, i.e., $x = 0$ .

The maximum velocity( $\bf{v_{m}}$ ) is

$v_{m} = \omega A~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(2)$

Divide equation (1) by equation(2).

$\dfrac{v}{v_{m}} = \dfrac{\sqrt{A^{2} - x^{2}}}{A}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(3)$

Given, $v = 0.25 v_{m}$ and $A = 15~cm$ . Substitute these values in equation (3).

$&& \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{\sqrt{15^{2} - x^{2}}}{15}\\&or,& A = 14.52~cm$

a stomp rocket takes 1.5 seconds to reach its maximum height what was the initial velocity and what was the maximum height ?

Zinaida [17]

1) Vf = Vo - gt; Vf = 0 => Vo = gt = 9.8m/s^2 * 1.5s = 14.7 m/s

2) d = Vo*t - gt^2 /2 = 14.7m/s*1.5 - 9.8m/s^2 * (1.5s)^2 / 2 = 11.02 m

You are caulking a window. The caulk is rather thick and, to lay the bead correctly, the exit nozzle is small. A caulking gun us

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The answer is

A. Pressure is distributed uniformly throughout the fluid and the area of the plunger is much larger than the area of the opening.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, here is a complete question with full options

You are caulking a window. The caulk is rather thick and, to lay the bead correctly, the exit nozzle is small. A caulking gun uses a plunger which is operated by pulling back on a handle. You must squeeze the handle very hard to get the caulk to come out of the narrow opening because:_________.

A. pressure is distributed uniformly throughout the fluid and the area of the plunger is much larger than the area of the opening.

B. viscous drag between the walls of the tip and the caulk causes the caulk to swirl around chaotically.

C. Newton’s third law requires most of the energy in the caulk to be used to push back on the plunger rather than moving it through the tip.

D. the high density of the caulk impedes its flow through the small opening.

Since the caulk is thick and the exit nozzle is small, the pressure needed to deliver the caulk will be very high as pressure is uniformly distributed at the plunger side at every part of the caulk, hence very high pressure is needed to deliver the caulk which is why the handle needed the very hard squeeze
