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.

What is the average power output pf a weight lifter who can lift 250 kg 2.0 m in 2.0 s
liq [111]

Answer:

Power = 2.45Kw or 2450 Watts.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass, m = 250kg

Height, h = 2m

Time, t = 2secs

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8m/s²

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Power = \frac {Energy}{time}

But Energy = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have

Power = \frac {mgh}{time}

Power = \frac {250*9.8*2}{2}

Power = \frac {4900}{2}

Power = 2450 Watts

To convert to kilowatt (Kw), we would divide by 1000

Power = 2450/1000

Power = 2.45Kw.

Therefore, the average power output of the weightlifter is 2.45 Kilowatts.

A 14.0 gauge copper wire of diameter 1.628 mmmm carries a current of 12.0 mAmA . Part A What is the potential difference across
NARA [144]

Answer:

a) 2.063*10^-4

b) 1.75*10^-4

Explanation:

Given that: d= 1.628 mm = 1.628 x 10-3 I= 12 mA = 12.0 x 10-8 A The Cross-sectional area of the wire is:  

A=\frac{\pi }{4}d^{2}  \\=\frac{\pi }{4}*(1.628*10^-3 m)^2\\=2.082*10^-6 m^2\\

a) <em>The Potential difference across a 2.00 in length of a 14-gauge copper  </em>

<em>    wire: </em>

  L= 2.00 m

From Table  Copper Resistivity p= 1.72 x 10-8 S1 • m The Resistance of the Copper wire is:

R=\frac{pL}{A}

   =0.0165Ω

The Potential difference across the copper wire is:  

V=IR

 =2.063*10^-4

b) The Potential difference if the wire were made of Silver: From Table: Silver Resistivity p= 1.47 x 10-8 S1 • m

The Resistance of the Silver wire is:  

R=\frac{pL}{A}

   =0.014Ω

The Potential difference across the Silver wire is:  

V=IR

 =1.75*10^-4

Need help finding the average speed.
Snowcat [4.5K]

Explanation:

To find the average of these numbers, we just have to add the three numbers together and divide by 3.

  • 2.07 + 0. 74 + 1.33 = 4.14. 4.14 / 3 = 1.38
  • 1.09 + 1.40 + 0.31 = 2.8. 2.8 / 3 ≈ 9.3333333/ 9 1/3
  • 0.95 + 1.61 + 0.56 = 3.12 / 3 = 1.04
  • 0.81 + 1.89 + 1.08 = 3.78 / 3 = 1.26
