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.

A car traveling in a straight line has a velocity of 3.29 m/s at some instant. After 4.99 s, its velocity is 8.29 m/s.
seraphim [82]

Use the definition of average acceleration:

<em>a</em> = ∆<em>v</em> / ∆<em>t</em>

We have

<em>a</em> = (8.29 m/s - 3.29 m/s) / (4.99 s)

<em>a</em> = 1.002 m/s²

How long does it take a car travelling at 80 m/s to decelerate to 18 m/s with an acceleration rate of -16m/s?
sertanlavr [38]
  • initial velocity=u=80m/s
  • Final velocity=v=18m/s
  • Acceleration=a=-16m/s^2
  • Time=t

We know

\boxed{\sf a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}

\\ \sf\longmapsto t=\dfrac{18-80}{-16}

\\ \sf\longmapsto t=\dfrac{-62}{16}

\\ \sf\longmapsto t=3.8s

Allushta [10]

Answer:

You're four sentences should include about how the roller coaster has the most potential energy at the top of the track, and the opposing energy, "kinetic" has the most kinetic energy when going down the hill.

Explanation:

Kinetic - In-Motion.

Potential - Gathering Energy to go into Motion.

( I'll try to answer questions to clear up confusion. )

An automobile traveling 95 km/h overtakes a 1.30-km-long train traveling in the same direction on a track parallel to the road.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: 6.175 km

Explanation:

from the question, we have the following

velocity of the automobile = 95 km/g

velocity of the train = 75 km/h

length of the train = 1.30 km

since the automobile and the train are moving in the same direction, we need to find the velocity of the car relative to the train which will be their difference in speed = 95 - 75 = 20 km/h

we need to find the time it takes the automobile to overtake the train using the formula time = distance / speed , with the distance being the length of the train.

time (t) = 1.3 / 20

= 0.065 hour

now we can find the distance traveled by the automobile using the the time taken for it to overtake the train and the speed of the automobile.

therefore, distance = speed x time

     distance = 95 x 0.065 =6.175 km
