bija089 [108]
Here's what he must do:

-- Run the experiment again, several times if possible.  Combine or analyze
the results of the several experimental runs in some statistically valid way.

-- Run the simulation again, several times.  Combine or analyze the results
of the several simulations in some statistically valid way.

-- Then, compare the analysis of several experimental runs with the analysis
of several simulations, in some statistically valid way, to decide whether they
<em>really</em> don't track.

-- If they do, then look for ways to tighten up the simulation so that maybe
they can track better.

-- If they don't, then he's back to <em>before</em> Square-1.  He not only has to
deal with the question of whether or not his experiment is valid, but he
also has to consider the possibility that his simulation is trash and
doesn't actually model nature like he expected it to.

Would prescribing calcium salt helps to treat the primary bone problem in scurvy?​
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scurvy is a disease that causes weakness, gum disease, changes to hair, and bleeding from the skin, and weak bones. This is caused strictly from a Vitamin C deficiency and can thud be treated/cured by implementing more vitamin C into your diet. Calcium Salt is a supplement that can help with the primary bone problem in Scurvy but is only a small inclusion in vitamin C and will not treat Scurvy. As mentioned previously incorporating more Vitamin C into your diet will treat/cure all symptoms of Scurvy including bone problem.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

What would happen if the moon was twice as fast as it it now
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Ans ; It would have to be closer for it to be in a circular orbit twice as fast. One moon cycle would be 2 weeks instead of 4 so our months would have been based on 2 week cycles making for 24 months. Tides would be less synchronous between days and much more intense because of how close it would be. This would have left a very different land map. Tidal forces would force the moon to rip apart sooner than with it's present orbit creating an important ring system around earth earlier.
