Which action can be explained by physics?

Physics
1 answer:
steposvetlana [31]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Actions that underlie mathematical rules, patterns or probability distributions.

For example how fast something falls at any given point or time.

More complex actions, such as human decision making in single individuals would be way too complicated to describe in physical terms.

But note that there can be physical models of such things as traffic when we can assume statistical knowledge of behavior.

Also physical models are used to plan such things as emergency exits in big stadiums, because many thousands of people can be described as particles flowing under a given pressure.

Every time we can gain good statistical knowledge and can therefore see patterns and rules in action, we can build theoretical models to make predictions and simulations (and games btw)

Since it's fair to say that mathematics is the science of patterns, it is plausible that physical descriptions often come in mathematical formulations, so that it can be understand as an efficient language of physics.

Neighboring disciplines like chemistry relay on physical theories to build on them,and then add shortcuts to fit their needs and interests, generating an own language for their field of study. But physicists may refer to them as anadd-on to physics.

Physics can basically explain all actions wich you can express in numbers.

But note that on a fundamental level physics describes 'how' things work, not necessarily 'why' they do it this way. The source of the basic and most fundamental physical constants and rules remains a mystery till this day.But of course there are theories on that as well, wich mostly can neither be proved or falsified.

The text is my own work and based of my general knowledge and quintessence of lectures on physics and other fields I attended.

(I would really appreciate the brainliest)

Two particles, each of mass m, are initially at rest very far apart.Obtain an expression for their relative speed of approach at
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

|\Delta v |=\sqrt{\frac{4Gm}{d} }

Explanation:

Consider two particles are initially at rest.

Therefore,

the kinetic energy of the particles is zero.

That initial K.E. = 0

The relative velocity with which both the particles are approaching each other is Δv and their reduced masses are

\mu= \frac{m_1m_2}{m_1+m_2}

now, since both the masses have mass m

therefore,

\mu= \frac{m^2}{2m}

= m/2

The final K.E. of the particles is

KE_{final}=\frac{1}{2}\times \mu\times \Delta v^2

Distance between two particles is d and the gravitational potential energy between them is given by

PE_{Gravitational}= \frac{Gmm}{d}

By law of conservation of energy we have

KE_{initial}+KE_{final}= PE_{gravitaional}

Now plugging the values we get

0+\frac{1}{2}\frac{m}{2}\Delta v^2= -\frac{Gmm}{d}

|\Delta v |=\sqrt{\frac{4Gm}{d} }

=\sqrt{\frac{Gm}{d} }

This the required relation between G,m and d

Which best supports the idea that the surface of the moon has changed very little?
likoan [24]
The correct answer is<span> c) Because the moon has no atmosphere, it is not possible for geologic events to occur on the moon.

Atmosphere is related to geological change because of things such as wind and water erosion that over time change the landscape, and there's neither on the moon. It's just a floating rock.</span>

A mass of 1 slug, when attached to a spring, stretches it 2 feet and then comes to rest in the equilibrium position. Starting at
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Y=(\dfrac{3}{16}+t \dfrac{3}{8})e^{-2t}-\dfrac{3}{16}cos 4t

Explanation:

Given that m= 1 slug and given that spring stretches by 2 feet so we can find the spring constant K

mg=k x

1 x 32= k x 2

K=16

And also give that damping force is 8 times the velocity so damping constant C=8.

We know that equation for spring mass system

my''+Cy'+Ky=F

Now by putting the values

1 y"+8 y'+ 16y=6 cos 4 t ----(1)

The general solution of equation Y=CF+IP

Lets assume that at steady state the equation of y will be

y(IP)=A cos 4t+ B sin 4t

To find the constant A and B we have to compare this equation with equation 1.

Now find y' and y" (by differentiate with respect to t)

y'= -4A sin 4t+4B cos 4t

y"=-16A cos 4t-16B sin 4t

Now put the values of y" , y' and y in equation 1

1 (-16A cos 4t-16B sin 4t)+8( -4A sin 4t+4B cos 4t)+16(A cos 4t+ B sin 4t)=6sin4 t

So by comparing the coefficient both sides

-16A+32B+16A=0  So B=0

-16 B-32 A+16B=6  So A=-3/16

y=-3/16 cos 4t

Now to find the CF  of differential equation 1

y"+8 y'+ 16y=6 cos 4 t

Homogeneous version of above equation

m^2+8m+16=0

So CF =(C_1+tC_2)e^{-2t}

So the general equation

Y=(C_1+tC_2)e^{-2t}-3/16 cos 4t

Given that t=0 Y=0 So

C_1=\dfrac{3}{16}

t=0 Y'=0 So

C_2 =\dfrac{3}{8}

Y=(\dfrac{3}{16}+t \dfrac{3}{8})e^{-2t}-\dfrac{3}{16}cos 4t

The above equation is the general equation for motion.

How long would i t take to walk around the eath nonstop?
zaharov [31]

Divide (25,000) by (the number of miles you can walk in 1 hour).
The answer you get is the number of hours it would take you to walk around the Earth once, IF you were able to walk on water too.
