Answer:

IF the price of chocolate increases, THEN the amount of chocolate people buy decreases

Explanation:

In a scientific investigation, an observation is first made. Based on this observation, a scientific question is then asked. However, a HYPOTHESIS is given next to explain the question asked. A hyothesis is a testable explanation given to solve an observed problem or provide a possible answer to a question.

The hypothesis must be subject to testing via EXPERIMENTATION. A hypothesis usually goes in an IF, THEN format. In this case with the testable question: How does price affect the amount of chocolate people buy?

A hypothesis that can explain this question is: IF the price of chocolate increases, THEN the amount of chocolate people buy decreases.

A skateboarder has an acceleration of −1.9 m/s2. If her initial speed is 6 m/s, how long does it take her to stop?

SSSSS [86.1K]

You said that she's losing 1.9 m/s of her speed every second.

So it'll take

(6 m/s) / (1.9 m/s²) = 3.158 seconds (rounded)

to lose all of her initial speed, and stop.

If a rock climber accidentally drops a 52.5-g piton from a height of 325 meters, what would its speed be just before striking th

alex41 [277]

Ignoring air resistance, the Kinetic energy before hitting the ground will be equal to the potential energy of the Piton at the top of the rock.
So we have 1/2 MV^2 = MGH
V^2 = 2GH
V = âš2GH
V = âš( 2 * 9.8 * 325)
V = âš 6370
V = 79.81 m/s
