Statements best explains why a scientific theory can be revised?

Physics
1 answer:
Vadim26 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: Because new theories can come out that better explain observations and experimental results can replace old theories.

Explanation: Theories more than ten years old are usually out of date. Scientists want to prove that the work of other scientists is wrong. New evidence that supports a change prompts scientists to modify earlier theories.

Find the equivalent resistance of this parallel circuit with two strands.
svlad2 [7]
In a parallel circuit, the total resistance calculated from the individual resistances is computed from the formula: 1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2. substituting R1 and R2, then 
1/Rt = 1/7 + 1/49 
1/Rt = 1/6.125 = 1/ 49/8
Rt = 49/8 <span>Ω

The total resistance hence is </span>49/8 Ω

What is the formula that describes the magnitude of impulse on an object?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Option C.

Impulse = mass × change in velocity

Explanation:

Impulse is defined by the following the following formula:

Impulse = force (F) × time (t)

Impulse = Ft

From Newton's second law of motion,

Force = change in momentum /time

Cross multiply

Force × time = change in momentum

Recall:

Impulse = Force × time

Thus,

Impulse = change in momentum

Recall:

Momentum = mass x velocity

Momentum = mv

Chang in momentum = mass × change in velocity

Change in momentum = mΔv

Thus,

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse = mass × change in velocity

scoray [572]

Answer:

a = v^2 / R      centripetal acceleration

R = v^2 / a     a at the surface of earth is 9.8 m/s^2

R = (90 m/s)^2 / 9.8 m/s^2 = 827 m
