I was about to say: because people generally get comfortable with
what they think they know, and don't like the discomfort of being told
that they have to change something they're comfortable with.
But then I thought about it a little bit more, and I have a different answer.
"Society" might initially reject a new scientific theory, because 'society'
is totally unequipped to render judgement of any kind regarding any
development in Science.
First of all, 'Society' is a thing that's made of a bunch of people, so it's
inherently unequipped to deal with scientific news. Anything that 'Society'
decides has a lot of the mob psychology in it, and a public opinion poll or
a popularity contest are terrible ways to evaluate a scientific discovery.
Second, let's face it. The main ingredient that comprises 'Society' ... people ...
are generally uneducated, unknowledgeable, unqualified, and clueless in the
substance, the history, and the methods of scientific inquiry and reporting.
There may be very good reasons that some particular a new scientific theory
should be rejected, or at least seriously questioned. But believe me, 'Society'
doesn't have them.
That's pretty much why.
Answer:
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Height above the ground, H= 5.0m
Range of the ball, R= 20 m
Initial horizontal velocity = 
Initial vertical velocity= 
(Since ball was thrown horizontally only)
Acceleration acting horizontally, 
= 0 m/s² [ Since no acceleration acts horizontally) ]
Vertical Acceleration, 
= 9.8 m/s² (Since only gravity acts on it)
Let 't' be the time taken to reach ground
Therefore, using equations of motion, we have
Then using Equations of motion for horizontal motion,
Consumed by Fire and Brimstone would be 1 symptom of Gomorrah lol
Answer:
A) 0 miles
Explanation:
The displacement is the distance between the starting point and the end point of the route.
In this case, even if Matino takes a whole tour around the city, since<u> it ends in the same place where it started</u>, the difference between the starting and finishing point is zero, so its total displacement is zero.
Care must be taken to distinguish the terms of displacement and distance traveled, beacause they are not the same, since in this case the distance traveled would be 3.15miles, but the displacement is zero, because it ends at the point where it started.
