A theory was not originally a hypothesis. true or false?

1 answer:

8 0

False.

Theories are hypotheses that have been shown to accurately and predictably explain results obtained through repeated experimentation, to the point where the hypothesis can be assumed to be true. Then, such a hypothesis would be considered a theory.

What is the de Broglie wavelength for a proton with energy 50 keV? Due to the limitations of Canvas, please give the wavelength

ad-work [718]

Answer:

1.2826 x 10^-13 m

Explanation:

$\lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2 m K}}$

Here, k be the kinetic energy and m be the mass

K = 50 KeV = 50 x 1.6 x 10^-16 J = 80 x 10^-16 J

m = 1.67 x 10^-27 kg

$\lambda = \frac{6.63 \times 10^{-34}}{\sqrt{2 \times 1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 80\times 10^{-16}}}$

λ = 1.2826 x 10^-13 m

Many physical quantities are connected by inverse square laws, that is, by power functions of the form f(x)=kx^(-2). In particul

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

4 times

Explanation:

Since the equation for the illumination of an object, i.e. the brightness of the light, is <em>inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the light source</em>, the form of the function is:

f(x) = k.x⁻²

Where x is the distance between the object and the light force, k is the constant of proportionality, and f(x) is the brightness.

Then, if you move halfway to the lamp the new distance is x/2 and the new brightness (call if F) is :

$F=k(x/2)^{-2}=\frac{k}{(x/2)^2}= \frac{k}{x^2}. 4=f(x).4$

Then, you have found that the light is 4 times as bright as it originally was.

Answer:

The Hubble space telescope.

Explanation:

Hubble is a telescope that observers the sky 24/7 non-stop, which means that for every day of the year it would have made a significant discovery, which of course includes your birthday. Furthermore, you can actually go to NASA website and find out what discovery was made on your birthday! This shows both the vastness of the universe <em>(it really has to be huge for a telescope to have a discovery for each day of the year!) </em> and the ceaseless work of the telescope!
