Answer:

Facts and theories are two different things. In the scientific method, there is a clear distinction between facts, which can be observed and/or measured, and theories, which are scientists' explanations and interpretations of the facts.

Which of the following statements correctly describes the index of refraction of a material? Select all that apply.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Option C and D only

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect  because refractive index of a material is the ratio of speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in a any given medium

Option B is correct as the speed of light in vacuum is always greater than the speed of light in any given medium.

Option C is correct

Option D is incorrect

Option E is incorrect because the denser the medium the more is the refractive index. Water is denser than air, hence it should have more refractive index as compared to that of air.

You carry a 5 kg sack of potatoes across the store for 5 minutes, and you wait in line holding it for 30 seconds before you get
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The only work done is when the person lifts the sack over a distance, W = 78.48 [N]

Explanation:

We have to remember the definition of work, which tells us that work is the result of a force by a distance, we must apply this concept in each of the movements of the person in the problem described.

W = F * d

where:

F = force [N]

d = distance [m]

The force is given by the producto of the mass by the gravity.

F = 5 * 9.81 = 49.05 [N]

W = 49.05 * 1.6 = 78.48 [N]

before swinging it down onto a pad.                                 Gravitational

A positively charged particle is slowly moved away

The string of a bow and arrow is pulled tight.                      Elastic

Energy is defined as the ability to do work. There are two main forms of energy which are:

  • Potential energy
  • Kinetic energy

Chemical energy energy is a form of potential energy produced through chemical reactions. A car battery is an electrochemical that converts chemical energy into electrical energy for use in the iPod. The battery is made up of electrodes through which electron flows in one direction and current is generated by the potential difference set up

Gravitational energy is a form of potential energy that tends to pull all bodies to the center of the earth. It is an attractive force.

Electrical energy is a form of energy produced through the flow of electric current in a body. As the positive charge moves away from the strong negative plate, an electric current is produced.

Elastic energy is a potential energy stored in elastic bodies that can be stretched and are not plastic.

Two 0.20-kg balls, moving at 4 m/s east, strike a wall. Ball A bounces backwards at the same speed. Ball B stops. Which statemen
muminat

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=0.20kg

Velocity v=4m/s

Generally the equation for momentum for Ball A is mathematically given by

Initial Momentum

 M_{a1}=mV

 M_{a1}=0.2*4

 M_{a1}=0.8

Final Momentum

 M_{a2}=-0.8kgm/s

Therefore

 \triangle M_a=-1.6kgm/s

Generally the equation for momentum for Ball B is mathematically given by

Initial Momentum

 M_{b1}=mV

 M_{b1}=0.2*4

 M_{b1}=0.8

Final Momentum

 M_{b2}=-0 kgm/s

Therefore

 |\triangle M_a|>|\triangle Mb|

Option A
