Answer:

b. It was supported by observations and evidence

Explanation:

An idea becomes a theory when it is supported by observations and evidence. The idea is tested multiple times and if it gives similar results, then it is accepted and becomes a theory.

Einstein's general theory of relativity became theory when it was supported by various observations and evidence.

B. A hypothesis is just an idea. And can become a Theory if there is some evidence. However a Theory is not a law, but an idea with supportive evidence

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Radians

Explanation:

The angular speed is a measure of the rotation speed of a body. It is defined as the angle rotated by a unit of time. Thus, It refers to the angular displacement per unit time and is designated by the Greek letter $\omega$ . Its unit in the International System is radian per second (rad / s).

Two charges, q1 and q2, are separated by a certain distance r. if the magnitudes of the charges are halved and their separation

vazorg [7]

The electrical force between these two charges remains the same. In coulomb’s law, it states that the magnitude of two charges (product of two charges) is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Since both the magnitude and the distance are halved, therefore, the change in both quantities will have no effect in the value of electrical force.
