What is science?

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h2>I don't know the answer but I have explanation </h2>

Explanation:

<h3>Science is further treated in a number of articles. For the history of Western and Eastern science, see science, history of. For the conceptualization of science and its interrelationships with culture, see science, philosophy of. For the basic aspects of the scientific approach, see physical science, principles of; and scientific method.Science can be divided into different branches based on the subject of study. The physical sciences study the inorganic world and comprise the fields of astronomy, physics, chemistry, and the Earth sciences. The biological sciences such as biology and medicine study the organic world of life and its processes. Social sciences like anthropology and economics study the social and cultural aspects of human behaviour.Science, any system of knowledge that is concerned with the physical world and its phenomena and that entails unbiased observations and systematic experimentation. In general, a science involves a pursuit of knowledge covering general truths or the operations of fundamental laws.</h3>

A sample of nitrogen gas has a volume of 5.0 ml at a pressure of 1.50 atm. what is the pressure exerted by the gas if the volume

olchik [2.2K]

A sample of nitrogen gas has a volume of 5.0 ml at a pressure of 1.50 atm. what is the pressure exerted by the gas if the volume increases to 30.0 ml, at constant temperature is 0.25atm.

On constant temperature, the pressure and volume relation become constant before and after the change in quantitities have occurred.

According to Boyle's Law,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

where, P₁ is pressure exerted by the gas initially

V₁ is the volume of gas initially

P₂ is pressure exerted by the gas finally

V₂ is the volume of gas finally

Given,

P₁ = 1.5 atm

V₁ = 5 ml

V₂ = 30 ml

P₂ =?

On substituting the given values in the above equation:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

1.5 atm × 5 ml = P₂ × 30 ml

P₂ = 0.25 atm

Hence, pressure exerted by the gas is 0.25atm.

A cat leaps into the air to catch a bird with an initial speed of 2.74 m/s at an angle of 60.0° above the ground. What is the hi

Volgvan

Answer: D. 0.29 m

Explanation:

We will use the following equations to describe the leap of the cat:

$y=V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ (1)

$V_{y}=V_{oy}-gt$ (2)

Where:

$y$ is the height of the cat

$V_{oy}=V_{o}sin\theta$ is the cat's initial velocity

$\theta=60\°$

$g=9.8m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

$t$ is the time

$V_{y}$ is the y-component of the velocity

Now the cat will have its maximum height $y_{max}$ when $V_{y}=0$ . So equation (2) is rewritten as:

$0=V_{oy}-gt$ (3)

Finding $t$ :

$t=\frac{V_{oy}}{g}=\frac{V_{o}sin\theta}{g}$ (4)

$t=\frac{2.74 m/s sin(60\°)}{9.8m/s^{2}}$ (5)

$t=0.24 s$ (6)

Substituting (6) in (1):

$y_{max}=(2.74 m/s)sin(60\°) (0.24 s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(0.24 s)^{2}}{2}$ (7)

Finally:

$y_{max}=0.287 m \approx 0.29 m$ (8)

A plane electromagnetic wave, with wavelength 4.1 m, travels in vacuum in the positive direction of an x axis. The electric fiel

marusya05 [52]

(a) $7.32\cdot 10^7 Hz$

The frequency of an electromagnetic waves is given by:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

where

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

$\lambda=4.1 m$ is the wavelength of the wave in the problem

Substituting into the equation, we find

$f=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.1 m}=7.32\cdot 10^7 Hz$

(b) $4.60\cdot 10^8 rad/s$

The angular frequency of a wave is given by

$\omega = 2\pi f$

where

f is the frequency

For this wave,

$f=7.32\cdot 10^7 Hz$

So the angular frequency is

$\omega=2\pi(7.32\cdot 10^7 Hz)=4.60\cdot 10^8 rad/s$

(c) $1.53 m^{-1}$

The angular wave number of a wave is given by

$k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}$

where

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the wave

For this wave, we have

$\lambda=4.1 m$

so the angular wave number is

$k=\frac{2\pi}{4.1 m}=1.53 m^{-1}$

(d) $1.03\cdot 10^{-6}T$

For an electromagnetic wave,

$E=cB$

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field component

c is the speed of light

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field component

For this wave,

E = 310 V/m

So we can re-arrange the equation to find B:

$B=\frac{E}{c}=\frac{310 V/m}{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}=1.03\cdot 10^{-6}T$

(e) z-axis

In an electromagnetic wave, the electric field and the magnetic field oscillate perpendicular to each other, and they both oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Therefore, we have:

- direction of propagation of the wave --> positive x axis

- direction of oscillation of electric field --> y axis

- direction of oscillation of magnetic field --> perpendicular to both, so it must be z-axis

(f) 127.5 W/m^2

The time-averaged rate of energy flow of an electromagnetic wave is given by:

$I=\frac{E^2}{2\mu_0 c}$
