That is a difference between a law and a hypothesis?

Physics
1 answer:
telo118 [61]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<em>A hypothesis</em> is a limited explanation of a phenomenon; a scientific theory is an in-depth explanation of the observed phenomenon.

<em> A law</em> is a statement about an observed phenomenon or a unifying concept, according to Kennesaw State University. ... However, Newton's law doesn't explain what gravity is, or how it works.

A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The  kinetic energy is KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  radius of the orbit is  r =  2.3 *10^{4} \ km  = 2.3  *10^{7} \ m

       The gravitational force is  F_g  = 6600 \ N

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

       KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * mv^2

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

     v  = \sqrt{\frac{G  M}{r^2} }

=>  v^2  =  \frac{GM }{r}

substituting this into the equation

      KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

      F_g  = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where M is the mass of the planet and  m is the mass of the satellite

 Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

     KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r

=>    KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r

substituting values

       KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}

         KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

An object of mass 4kg is moving along a horizontal plane. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.2 find the friction force
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The friction force acting on the object is 7.84 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of object, m = 4 kg

coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.2

The friction force acting on the object is calculated as;

F = μkN

F = μkmg

where;

F is the frictional force

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

F = 0.2 x 4 x 9.8

F = 7.84 N

Therefore, the friction force acting on the object is 7.84 N

Please help I’m stuck
Gnoma [55]

The weight of the box is <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em>, where <em>m</em> is the mass. So

<em>m</em> = <em>w</em>/<em>g</em> = (3893.40 N) / (9.80 m/s²) ≈ 397 kg

Then the box has density

(397 kg)/(4.60 m³) ≈ 86.4 kg/m³

which is less than the density of the given liquid, so the box will float.

Bas_tet [7]

Answer: The temperature of the water falls by 3.3°C

Explanation:

The heat change is related to the change in temperature by the equation

dH = m Cp dT

In this example, -2665 J = 193 g x 4.184 J/g°C x dT

so dT = -3.3 °C
