The famous scientist Galileo Galilei did several experiments with sloping planes, which he rolled metal balls down so that he co

uld study motion. By changing the slope, he could study how the speed at which the ball rolled was affected.
What was one thing Galileo would have needed to control himself to make sure his experiment gave him useful information?

A. the speed of the ball
B. the slope of the plane
C. the pull of Earth's gravity
D. the material the ball was made of

Hi there!

The answer would be B. the slope of the plane.

Changing the slope of the plane would show how fast the ball went when Galileo changed the steepness of the slope. If he didn’t change the slopes steepness he would have the same results each time.

Hope this helps !

If the intensity level by 15 identical engines in a garage is 100 dB, what is the intensity level generated by each one of these
insens350 [35]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Sound Intensity.

By definition the intensity is given by the equation

\beta = 10Log(\frac{I}{I_0})

Where,

I = Intensity of Sound

I_0= Intensity of Reference

At this case we have that 15 engines produces 15 times the reference intensity, that is

I= 15I_0

And the total mutual intensity is 100 dB, so we should

\beta = 100-10*log(\frac{15I_0}{I_0})

\beta = 100-10*log(15)

\beta = 100-11.76

\beta = 88.23dB

Therefore each one of these engines produce D. 88dB.

aniked [119]
The name of the scientist who incorrectly theorized that it was the positive charge that moved through a circuit is Benjamin Franklin. Franklin made his famous experiments with a kite in a charged cloud.
He was the scientist that made the electrical notation where the current is given by the direction of the positive charges flow.

amping equipment weighing 6.0 kN is pulled across a frozen lake by means of ahorizontal rope. The coecient of kinetic friction i
Harman [31]

Answer:

Work done = 422.45 kJ

Explanation:

given,                                  

weight of equipment = 6 kN      

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.05          

distance up to which it is pulled = 1000 m

constant acceleration = 0.2 m/s²                    

Work done by the camper = ?                

actual acceleration acting a'      

m a = m a' - μ mg            

a' = a + μ g                      

a' = 0.2 + 0.05 x 9.8                

a' = 0.69 m/s²                              

Work done = Force x distance

F = m a'                                                            

F = \dfrac{6000}{9.8} \times 0.69

F = 422.44897 N                            

Work done = F x d                          

Work done = 422.44897 x 1000

Work done = 422449 J                  

Work done = 422.45 kJ

A point charge q1 is held stationary at the origin. A second charge q2 is placed at point a, and the electric potential energy o
Brrunno [24]

The electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b is 7.3 x 10⁻⁸ J.

<h3>Electric potential energy</h3>

When work is done on a positive test charge to move it from one location to another, potential energy increases and electric potential increases.

The electric potential energy between the charges when the second charge is at point b is calculated as follows;

ΔU = -w

Ui - Uf = w

Uf = Ui - w

where;

Uf is the final potential energy

Ui is the initial potential energy

w is the work done by the force

Uf = 5.4 x 10⁻⁸ J - (-1.9 x 10⁻⁸J)

Uf = 5.4 x 10⁻⁸ J + 1.9 x 10⁻⁸ J

Uf = 7.3 x 10⁻⁸ J

Thus, the electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b is 7.3 x 10⁻⁸ J.
