How do scientists use inference?

alexgriva [62]

Their inferences are based on evidence that they collect during their investigations. Readers learn that scientists gather and interpret evidence and draw conclusions based on this evidence. ... Once scientists have gathered evidence, they use it to make inferences about the things they are investigating.

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

6.04788 in

$115.82654\ in^3$

78.38779 m/s

0.88159 kg

34.55294 J

Explanation:

Circumference is given by

$c=2\pi r\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{c}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{19}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=3.02394\ in$

Diameter is given by

$d=2r\\\Rightarrow d=2\times 3.02394\\\Rightarrow d=6.04788\ in$

The diameter is 6.04788 in

$6.04788\times 2.54=15.3616152\ cm$

Volume of sphere is given by

$v=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi 3.02394^3\\\Rightarrow v=115.82654\ in^3$

The volume is $115.82654\ in^3$

$115.82654\times \dfrac{1}{1728}=0.06702\ ft^3$

Fall velocity is given by

$V=k\sqrt{d}\\\Rightarrow V=20\sqrt{15.3616152}\\\Rightarrow V=78.38779\ m/s$

The velocity of the fall will be 78.38779 m/s

Mass is given by

$m=\rho v\\\Rightarrow m=29\times 0.06702\\\Rightarrow m=1.94358\ lb$

$1.94358\ lb=1.94358\times \dfrac{1}{2.20462}=0.88159\ kg$

The mass is 0.88159 kg

Kinetic energy is given by

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}0.88159\times 78.38779\\\Rightarrow K=34.55294\ J$

The kinetic energy is 34.55294 J

At a particular instant the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by a planet on one of its moons is 7 × 1021 N. Collapse

9966 [12]

Answer:

Fg = 4.2*10²² N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between any two masses, provided that can be approximated by point masses (comparing their diameters with the distance between them), obeys the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, which states that the force (always attractive) is proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them (this as a consequence of our Universe being three-dimensional), as follows:

$Fg =\frac{G*m1*m2}{r^{2}}$

So, if one of the masses increases 6 times, the force between them will be directly 6 times larger, so the new magnitude of the force will be as follows:

Fg₂ = Fg₁*6 = 7*10²¹ N* 6 = 4.2*10²² N
