A scalar quantity is a measurement of a quantity, like temperature, or mass.
B.False
Einstein's vision of GR is NOT that somehow Gravity comes along and alters (indents?) some existing structure.
It is that Gravity (with its four possible sources) actually determines the entire global structure of Space-Time in which such sources are extant.
When two or more waves meet, they interact with each other. The interaction of waves with other waves is called wave interference. Wave interference may occur when two waves that are traveling in opposite directions meet. The two waves pass through each other, and this affects their amplitude.
Answer:
23.52 m/s
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Time taken (t) to reach the maximum height = 2.4 s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Initial velocity (u) =..?
At the maximum height, the final velocity (v) is zero. Thus, we can obtain how fast the rock (i.e initial velocity)
was thrown as follow:
v = u – gt (since the rock is going against gravity)
0 = u – (9.8 × 2.4)
0 = u – 23.52
Collect like terms
0 + 23.52 = u
u = 23.52 m/s
Therefore, the rock was thrown at a velocity of 23.52 m/s.
Yes, scientific method can be applied on many everyday activities to get a reasonable solution. Infact normally we are applying this method without having it in our knowledge that we are applying it.
For example: In morning we are going to office and we start the car, but it is not started.You turn the engine again and again but it simply donot works.
Observation (the state of defining a problem):
The car is not started
Hypothesis (A possible solution based on the information we already know):
The car is not started because it might be out of gas or there can be some other technical fault.
Experiment (testing of hypothesis by applying different methods of solving problem):
You get the fuel and put it inside the car but it still donot works and car didnot start. Experiment didnot get solution.
Analyze the results of data and test another hypothesis
You call a technician and he check with the car engine tries and finds out that the engine was out of order and needs repairing.
Draw conclusion:
The engine do not works when it is out of order and it is a cause of a car not being started.
<em>Now the theory and law making part can not be applied on this case but it is a part of scientific method.</em>
Hope it helps!
