Why is Einstein's description of gravity called a theory, while Newton's is a law?
Ludmilka [50]
Albert Einstein came up with the theory of general relativity to explain the law of gravity, whilst Newton's three laws of gravity is universal. To understand this further, it's best to understand it in scientific terms.

The weird thing about science is that words that are used in a colloquial sense may have a completely opposite definition in scientific terms.

A law in science is a constant and invariable statement that is universal. Wherever you may be in the universe, Newton's three laws of gravity will always be applied.

The word "theory" doesn't imply conjecture or an idea someone made up after a night of drinking. In science, a theory is the highest level of certainty behind mathematical proof -- which isn't even a part of science, obviously. A theory has to be substantiated by all available evidence and contradicted by none. All theories also have to have to be falsifiable. For this reason, theories can never be proven. Einstein's theory of general relativity has great predictive power, but in some cases, the predictions aren't always constant. Theories are often revised to fit new available evidence.

A quantity of a gas has an absolute pressure of 400 kPa and an absolute temperature of 110 degrees kelvin. When the temperature
shepuryov [24]

You can make sure there's no change in volume by keeping
your gas in a sealed jar with no leaks.  Then you can play with
the temperature and the pressure all you want, and you'll know
that the volume is constant.

For 'ideal' gases,

       (pressure) times (volume) is proportional to (temperature).

And if volume is constant, then

                 (pressure) is proportional to (temperature) .

So if you increase the temperature from 110K to 235K,
the pressure increases to  (235/110)  of where it started.

     (400 kPa) x (235/110)  =  854.55 kPa. (rounded)

Obviously, choice-b is the right one, but
I don't know where the .46 came from.

Two cars are moving in the same direction at the same speed of (72.0 kmh). What is
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

0 km/h

Explanation:

Relative speed is the speed of a moving body with respect to another.

When two bodies move in the same direction then the relative speed is calculated as difference of their speeds.

In this case;

The two cars have the same speed. The relative speed will be;

72 km/h -72 km/h = 0 km/h

The energy of the wave will decrease.

The energy of a wave is given as

E = h f

where E = energy of waver

h = plank's constant

f = frequency of the wave.

From the formula , we see that the energy of the wave is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave. hence as the frequency of the wave decrease, the energy of the wave will decrease.
