Which of the following does not accurately depict a scientific theory?

1 answer:

4 0

Scientific theories are not absolute and unquestionable truths: they are the best explanation of the data, but they can be challenged if new data is discovered or if a new theory is found that fits to and explains the data even better!
The best answer is d: this is not an accurate description of a scientific theory!

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.

How does increased pressure result in the formation of a mineral?

drek231 [11]

The best answer is
A) The atoms in the mineral get rearranged

Over time, and under great pressure, the atoms of a substance can become rearranged, forming a new substance. For example, the intense pressure that carbon underground experiences, perhaps in the form of coal, can rearrange the atoms of the substance to create a diamond.

un avión aterriza en la superficie de un portaaviones a 50 m/s y se detiene por completo en 120 metros, ¿cuál es la aceleración

sergejj [24]

Answer:

La aceleración necesaria para detener el avión es - 10.42 m/s².

Explanation:

Un movimiento uniformemente acelerado (M.U.A) es aquél cuya aceleración es constante y la velocidad de un objeto cambia a medida que el movimiento evoluciona.

Siendo la aceleración "a" el cambio de velocidad al tiempo transcurrido en un punto A a B, la velocidad inicial la velocidad que tiene un cuerpo al iniciar su movimiento en un período de tiempo y la velocidad final la velocidad que tiene un cuerpo al finalizar su movimiento en un período de tiempo, entonces en M.U.A se cumple:

Vf² - Vo² = 2*a*d

donde:

Vf: Velocidad final
Vo: Velocidad inicial
a: Aceleración
d: Distancia recorrida

En este caso:

Vf: 0 m/s, porque el avión se detiene
Vo: 50 m/s
a: ?
d: 120 m

Reemplazando:

(0 m/s)² - (50 m/s)² = 2*a*120 m

Resolviendo:

$a=\frac{(0 m/s)^{2} -(50 m/s)^{2} }{2*120 m}$

a= - 10.42 m/s²

La aceleración necesaria para detener el avión es - 10.42 m/s².

Two objects of the same size are both perfect blackbodies. One has a temperature of 3000 K, so its frequency of maximum emission

bija089 [108]

Answer:

a) The colder body (3000k), b) hearter body c) 12000K body

Explanation:

This exercise should know the power emitted by the objects and the distribution of this emission in the energy spectrum, for this we will use Stefan's laws and that of Wien's displacement

Stefan's Law P = σ A e T⁴

Wien displacement law λ T = 2,898 10⁻³ m K

Let's calculate the power emitted for each object.

As they are perfect black bodies e = 1, they also indicate that they have the same area

T = 3000K

P₁ = σ A T₁⁴

T = 12000K

P₂ = σ A T₂⁴

P₂ / P₁ = T₂⁴ / T₁⁴

P₂ / P₁ = (12000/3000)⁴

P₂ / P₁ = 256

This indicates that the hottest body emission is 256 times the coldest body emission.

Let's calculate the maximum emission wavelength

Body 1

T = 3000K

λ T = 2,898 10-3

λ₁ = 2.89810-3 / T

λ₁ = 2,898 10-3 / 3000

λ₁ = 0.966 10-6 m

λ₁ = 966 nm

T = 12000K

λ₂ = 2,898 10-3 / 12000

λ₂ = 0.2415 10-6 m

λ₂ = 214 nm

a) The colder body (3000k) emits more light in the infrared, since the emission of the hot body is at a minimum (emission tail)

b) The two bodies have emission in this region, the body of 3000K in the part of rise of the emission and the body to 12000K in the descent of the emission even when this body emits 256 times more than the other, so this body should have the highest broadcast in this area

c) The emission of the hottest 12000K body is mainly in UV

d) The hottest body emits more energy in UV and visible

e) No body has greater emission in all zones
