Answer:

When scientists have a question, they form a hypothesis, which is an idea that may be proved or disproved by an experiment.

Answer: Hypothesis

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a presumed statement for the cause of natural event, process or phenomena. A hypothesis is developed through assumption. A hypothesis can be tested using experimental procedure in which the data obtain will state whether the stated hypothesis is true or false.

After asking a question related to the natural event, process or phenomena the scientists can frame a hypothesis. It is an idea which can be proved or disproved by the experiment.

A cyclist traveling at constant speed of 12m/s when he passes a stationary bus.The bus starts moving just as the cyclist passes

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A.) 8 seconds

B.) 16 seconds

C.) 48 m

Explanation:

Given that a cyclist traveling at constant speed of 12 m/s

and the bus accelerates uniformly at 1.5ms²

A.) The bus has the following parameters

Acceleration a = 1.5 m/s^2

Initial velocity U = 0. Since the bus is starting from rest.

Final velocity V = 12 m/s

Use equation one of linear motion.

V = U + at

Substitute V, U and a into the formula

12 = 0 + 1.5t

1.5t = 12

t = 12/1.5

t = 8 seconds

Therefore, the bus reach the same speed as the cyclist at 8 seconds.

B.) For the cyclist moving at constant speed, acceleration a = 0. Using second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2at^2

Since a = 0, the equation is reduced to:

h = Ut.

Also, for the bus,

h = Ut + 1/2at^2

Equate the two equations since the h is the same

Ut = Ut + 1/2at^2

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

12t = 0 + 1/2 × 1.5t^2

12t = 0.75t^2

0.75t = 12

t = 12/0.75

t = 16 seconds

Therefore, the bus takes 16 seconds to catch the cyclist

C.) Use third equation of linear motion.

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

Where s = distance

Substitute V, U and a into the formula

12^2 = 0 + 2 × 1.5 S

144 = 3S

S = 144/3

S = 48 m

A projectile is launched

Flauer [41]

The vertical component of the velocity after the given time is -9.8 m/s while the horizontal component of the velocity is 16 m/s.

The given parameters;

initial horizontal velocity, vₓ = 16 m/s
initial vertical velocity, $v_y =0$
time interval 1 seconds

The components of the velocity can be horizontal or vertical velocity.

The vertical component of the velocity is affected by acceleration due to gravity while the horizontal component of the velocity is not affected by gravity.

The vertical component of the velocity is calculated as;

$v_y = v_0_y -gt\\\\v_y = 0 - (1\times 9.8)\\\\v_y = -9.8 \ m/s$

The horizontal component of the velocity is constant since it is not affected by gravity.

The horizontal component of the velocity = 16 m/s

Thus, the vertical component of the velocity after the given time is -9.8 m/s while the horizontal component of the velocity is 16 m/s.
