Answer:

D. It will become a law when enough evidence is supported.

Explanation:

Based on observations of natural phenomenon, a possible scientific explanation is written and tested. If the results are positive, it becomes a theory. If enough evidence is gathered and can be used generally, it becomes a law. For example Newton's laws of motion are used to describe all kinds of motion on Earth.

Einstein's theory of relativity cannot be tested directly but it's indirect evidence can be gathered because it deals with speeds near to the speed of light and space-time curve.

Thus, when the scientists would gather more evidence in future supporting Einstein's theory of relativity, it would be converted to law.

Option D. is correct.

Decreases, stays the same, increases. The volume decreases because as air is cooled, the individual molecules collectively possess less kinetic energy and the distances between them decrease, thus leading to a decrease in the volume they occupy at a certain pressure (please note that my answer only holds under constant pressure; air, as a gas, doesn't actually have a definite volume). The mass stays the same because physical processes do not create or destroy matter. The law of conservation of mass is obeyed. You're only cooling the air, not adding more air molecules. The density decreases because as the volume decreases and mass stays the same, you have the same mass occupying a smaller volume. Density is mass divided by volume, so as mass is held constant and volume decreases, density increases.

Explain different types of thermometer and their thermometry substance​
Rudiy27

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

1) Liquid in glass thermometer: This type of thermometer is used primarily to measure the temperatures from inspection of changes in volume of liquid.

Thermometry substance is mercury or alcohol

2) Gas thermometer: This type is used to measure temperature as a result of changes in gas pressure or volume.

Thermometry substance is Gas.

3) Resistance thermometer: This type is used to measure temperature due to changes in electric resistance.

Thermometry substance is Resistance wire.

4) Thermocouple thermometer: This type is used to measure the temperature due to changes in electrical potential difference occurring between two metal junctions.

Thermometry substance is two wires that are dissimilar.

5) Bimetallic thermometer: This is a type of thermometer that measures temperature by converting temperature into mechanical displacement by making use of Bimetallic strip.

Thermometry substance is two metals that are dissimilar.

A charge feels a 7.89 x 10-7 N force when it moves 2090 m/s at a 29.4° angle to a 4.23 x 10-3 T magnetic field. What is the amou
tamaranim1 [39]

We have that the amount of the charge q is

q=1.8*10^{-7}

From the Question we are told that

Force F=7.89 x*10^{-7}

Velocity V=2090m/s

Angle \theta=29.4

Magnetic field B=4.23 * 10^{-3} T

Generally, the equation for Force F is mathematically given by

F=qVBsin\theta\\\\q=\frac{F}{VBsin\theta}

q=\frac{7.89 x*10^{-7}}{4.23 * 10^{-3} T*sin29.4*2090m/s}

q=1.8*10^{-7}

In conclusion

The amount of the charge q is

q=1.8*10^{-7}

A player is positioned 35 m[40 degrees W of S] of the net. He shoot the puck 25 m [E] to a teammate. What second displacement do
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

x=22.57 m

Explanation:

Given that

35 m in W of S

angle = 40 degrees

25 m in east

From the diagram

The angle

\theta=90-40=50^o

From the triangle OAB

cos40^o=\frac{35^2+25^2-x^2}{2\times 35\times 25}

1340.57=35^2+25^2-x^2

x=22.57 m

Therefore the answer of the above problem will be 22.57 m
