Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is an elaborate and deep explanation of a natural phenomenon in nature.

The scientific theory is formed after the results and evidence from various experiments of a different hypothesis are combined due to which theory explains the depth of any phenomenon.  The scientific theory is different from a scientific hypothesis as a hypothesis is a limited explanation based on results but a theory is based on the predictions of the experimental outcome.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

Calculate the broadcast wavelength of the radio station 99.90 fm. seconds
taurus [48]

The radio waves are electromagnetic wave, so it travels with velocity of light i.e 3\times 10^{8} \ m/s.

We can use the relation between frequency, wavelength and speed as

\lambda =\frac{c}{f}

Here c is speed of light, \lambda is wavelength and f is frequency and its value is given 99.90 FM, it is actually in megahertz  (i.e 99.90 MHz).

Therefore,

\lambda =\frac{3 \times 10^{8}\ m/s }{99.90 \times 10^{6} \ Hz} = 3.003 \ m.

Thus, the broadcast wavelength of the given radio station is 3.003 m.

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two identical ions that are separated by a distance of 5.0A is 3.7×10^-9N.a) wh
jeyben [28]

Explanation:

Given that,

Electrostatic force, F=3.7\times 10^{-9}\ N

Distance, r=5\ A=5\times 10^{-10}\ m

(a) F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}, q is the charge on the ion              

q=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr^2}{k}}

q=\sqrt{\dfrac{3.7\times 10^{-9}\times (5\times 10^{-10})^2}{9\times 10^9}}      

q=3.2\times 10^{-19}\ C

(b) Let n is the number of electrons are missing from each ion. It can be calculated as :

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

n=\dfrac{3.2\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n = 2

Hence, this is the required solution.

Leni [432]
<span>Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object that is moving. This value is a result of all the forces that is acting on an object which is described by Newton's second law of motion. Calculations of such is straightforward, if we are given the final velocity, the initial velocity and the total time interval. However, we are not given these values. We are only left by using the kinematic equation expressed as:

d = v0t + at^2/2

We cancel the term with v0 since it is initially at rest,

d = at^2/2
44 = a(6.2)^2/2
a = 2.3 m/s^2

An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas
jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks
