Both of those terms are widely used in higher education, particularly in the sciences.  Their technical definitions, as well as their common underlying meanings, are precisely identical.  So you can use either one without any fear of being corrected or misunderstood.

Answer:

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world.

What happens to acceleration if forces are balanced
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

No acceleration.

Explanation:

If the forces are Balanced it means they are in equilibrium and there will be  no net force, therefore the object will not accelerate and the velocity will remain constant.

When the displacement in SHM is equal to 1/3 of the amplitude xm, what fraction of the total energy is (a) kinetic energy and (b
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Displacement is \frac{1}{3} of Amplitude

i.e. x=\frac{A}{3} , where A is maximum amplitude

Potential Energy is given by

U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

U=\frac{1}{2}k(\frac{A}{3})^2

U=\frac{1}{18}kA^2

Total Energy of SHM is given by

T.E.=\frac{1}{2}kA^2

Total Energy=kinetic Energy+Potential Energy

K.E.=\frac{1}{2}kA^2 -\frac{1}{18}kA^2

K.E.=\frac{8}{18}kA^2

Potential Energy is \frac{1}{8} th of Total Energy

Kinetic Energy is \frac{8}{9} of Total Energy

(c)Kinetic Energy is 0.5\times \frac{1}{2}kA^2

P.E.=\frac{1}{4}kA^2

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{4}kA^2

x=\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}

Johnny Hotfoot slams on the brakes of his car mov- ing at 60 mph (26.7 m/s) and skids to a stop in 4 s. (a) What is the decelera
Hoochie [10]

At 60 mph (26.7 m/s), Johnny Hotfoot slams on the brakes of his car and skids to a stop in 4 s. (A) How fast is the car slowing down? (b) The extent of the skid.

If the car had been traveling at 40.0 m/s, it would have slid 27.2 m.

The frictional force opposes the linear force pulling on the automobile. Consequently, m is the vehicle's mass, an is its acceleration, and c is its coefficient of friction.

The normal force is R.

given the aforementioned variables

Find the length of the skid if the vehicle had been traveling at 40.0 m/s.

The car would have skidded 27.2 meters if it had been driving at 40.0 meters per second.

A rocket is launched straight up with constant acceleration. Four seconds after liftoff, a bolt falls off the side of the rocket
Olenka [21]

Answer:

1.3m/s²

Explanation:

Given values in the first part: acceleration a, time t₁:

1) velocity v₀ = at_1

2) height h₀ =\frac{1}{2}at_1^2

Given values in the second part: acceleration -g,  time t₂:

3) height h = -\frac{1}{2}gt_2^2+v_0t_2+h_0

Combining equations 1,2,3 and setting h to zero:

0=-\frac{1}{2}gt_2^2+(at_1)t_2+\frac{1}{2}at_1^2\\ 0=a(t_1t_2+\frac{1}{2}t_1^2)-\frac{1}{2}gt_2^2

Solve for a with t₁ = 4s and t₂=2.1s:

a=\frac{1}{2}gt_2^2(\frac{1}{t_1t_2+\frac{1}{2}t_1^2})
