Answer: B. Scientists perform experiments and investigations to gather data and evidence prior to making conclusions.

Explanation:

A scientific objectivity can be define as methods, claims and results obtain by the scientists after implementing the appropriate methodology. The objectivity of the outcome can also be influenced by personal interests, community bias and manipulations. But it should be completely based upon the outcomes of scientific procedures.

On the basis of the above explanation, B. Scientists perform experiments and investigations to gather data and evidence prior to making conclusions. is the correct option. As the procedures and results are liable to be questioned by the scientific community.

A bicycle is heading West. It goes 5000m in 500s what's its velocity

dybincka [34]

There are several information's of immense importance already given in the question. Based on the given information's the answer to the question can easily be determined.
Distance covered by the bicycle = 5000 meter
Time taken by the bicycle to reach the distance = 500 second.
Velocity of the bicycle = Distance / Time taken
= 5000/500 meter/second
= 50 meter/second
So the velocity of the bicycle is 50 meter per second. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. In future you can always use this procedure for solving similar problems.

Answer:

D. Burning paper

Explanation:

physical change is just changing the way it looks

chemical change is changing the properties of the object or thing

melting ice is just changing the way it looks it still has the same atoms and elements.

when you burn something it will change the properties of the atoms in the object

Three point charges are placed on the x−y plane: a + 50.0-nC charge at the origin, a −50.0-nC charge on the x axis at 10.0 cm, a

butalik [34]

Answer:

(a) F = 0.00322i - 0.00793j with magnitude |F| = 0.00856N

(b) E = -42846.7 N/C

Explanation:

The diagram attached below explains some parameters.

Parameters given:

Charge Q1 = +50 nC at point (0, 0)

Charge Q2 = -50 nC at point (0.1, 0)

Charge Q3 = +150 nC at point (0.1, 0.08)

* The distances are in meters.

(a) The total electric force on the charge Q3 due to Q1 and Q2 is the vector sum of the forces due to Q1 and Q2. Mathematically,

F = F1 + F2

FORCE DUE TO Q1 i.e. F(Q1, Q3)

We have to find the x and y components.

From the diagram, we can find θ using SOHCAHTOA:

θ = tan⁻¹ (0.08/0.1)

θ = 38.66⁰

The distance between Q1 and Q3 can be found using Pythagoras theorem:

x² = 0.08² + 0.1²

x = 0.128 m

F1 = Fx(Q1, Q3)i + Fy(Q1, Q3)j

F1 = iF(Q1, Q3)cosθ + jF(Q1, Q3)sinθ

F(Q1, Q3) = (k * Q1 * Q3) / r²

k = Coulombs constant

F(Q1, Q3) = (9 * 10⁹ * 50 * 10⁻⁹ * 150 * 10⁻⁹) /(0.128)²

F(Q1, Q3) = 0.00412N

F1 = i0.00412 * cos38.66 + j0. 00412 * sin38.66

F1 = 0.00322i + 0.00257j N

FORCE DUE TO Q2 i.e. F(Q2, Q3)

We have to find the x and y components.

F2 = Fx(Q2, Q3)i + Fy(Q2, Q3)j

F2 = iF(Q2, Q3)cos90 + jF(Q2, Q3)cos0

F(Q2, Q3) = (k * Q2 * Q3) / r²

F(Q2, Q3) = (9 * 10⁹ * -50 * 10⁻⁹ * 150 * 10⁻⁹) /(0.08)²

F(Q2, Q3) = -0.0105N

F2 = -i0.0105 * cos90 - j0.0105 * cos0

F2 = - 0.0105j N

Hence, the total force will be

F = F1 + F2

F = 0.00322i + 0.00257j - 0.0105j

F = 0.00322i - 0.00793j N

The magnitude of this force is:

|F| = √(0.00322² + (-0.00793²)

|F| = 0.00856N

(b) The electric field at charge Q3 is the sum of the electric fields due to Q1 and Q2:

E = E1 + E2

E1, electric field due to Q1 = kQ1/r²

E1 = (9 * 10⁹ * 50 * 10⁻⁹) / (0.128²)

E1 = 27465.8 N/C

E2, electric field due to Q2 = (9 * 10⁹ * -50 * 10⁻⁹) / (0.08²)

E1 = -70312.5N/C

The total electric field:

E = E1 + E2

E = 27465.8 - 70312.5

E = -42846.7 N/C

An organ pipe open at both ends is 1.5 m long. A second organ pipe that is closed at one end and open at the other is 0.75 m lon

telo118 [61]

Answer:

A. 110Hz,220Hz, 330 Hz

Explanation:

for organ open at open both ends;

the length of the organ for the fundamental frequency, L = A---->N + N----->A

A---->N = λ /4 and N----->A = λ /4

L = λ /4 + λ /4 = λ /2

$L = \frac{\lambda}{2} \\\\\lambda = 2L$

λ = 2 x 1.5m = 3.0 m

Wave equation is given by;

V = Fλ

Where;

V is the speed of sound

F is the frequency of the wave

F = V/ λ

F₀ = V / 2L

Where;

F₀ is the fundamental frequency

F₀ = 330 / 2(1.5)

F₀ = 330 / 3

F₀ = 110 Hz

the length of the organ for the first overtone, L = A---->N + N----->A + A----->N + N----->A

L = 4λ /4

L = λ

λ = 1.5 m

F₁ = 330 / 1.5

F₁ = 220 Hz

Thus, F₁ = 2F₀

For open organ at one end

the length of the organ for the fundamental frequency, L = N------A

L = λ /4

λ = 4L

F₀ = V/4L

F₀ = 330 / (4 x 0.75)

F₀ = 110 Hz

the length of the organ for the first overtone, L = N-----N + N-----A

L = λ/2 + λ / 4

L = 3λ /4

F₁ = 3F₀

F₁ = 3 x 110

F₁ = 330 Hz

Thus the fundamental frequency for both organs is 110 Hz,

The first overtone for the organ open at both ends is 220 Hz

The first overtone for the organ open at one end is 330 Hz

The correct option is "A. 110Hz,220Hz, 330 Hz"
