Statements best explains why a scientific theory can be revised?

Physics
1 answer:
Vadim26 [7]2 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Explanation: Theories more than ten years old are usually out of date.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.

A cannon fires a cannonball 500.0 m downrange when set at a 45.0o angle. At what velocity does the cannonball leave the cannon?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

v = 70 m/s

Explanation:

Range on the cannon ball is given as

d = 500.0 m

here the angle of the projection of the ball is given as 45 degree

now we know that if the velocity of the ball is "v" then its two components will be given as

v_x = vcos45

v_y = vsin45

so here time of flight of the motion is given as

T = \frac{2v_y}{g}

T = \frac{2vsin45}{g}

also the range is given as

R = v_x T

R = (vcos45)(\frac{2vsin45}{g})

now plug in all data in this equation

500.0 = \frac{v^2(2sin45cos45)}{g}

v = 70 m/s

(i) • there is force applied to an objects

• the object moves

• the object moves in the same direction as the direction of the force

(ii) workdone = force x distance

= 23 x 34

= 782Joules

.physics wave. Please don't dare to answer irrelevant

Answer:

1a) 857143 m

1b) 414 m

3) the medium of air has a wavelength of 0.334 m, the medium of water has a wavelength of 1.493 m, and the medium of 5.130 m.

Explanation:

Question 1a)

Given the velocity/speed, and frequency of the wave, the length can be calculated using these two quantites.

[ λ = v / f ] wavelength = <u>v</u>elocity of the wave / <u>f</u>requency of the wave in Hz.

Since 3 × 10^8 × ms^-1 is the velocity, and 350Hz is the frequency.

Anything to the negative power is reciprocated. i.e ms^-1 = m/s.

The wavelength is 300000000m/350Hz = 857142.8571428..... m ≈ 857143 m

Question 1b) Given that the frequency of the second wave in water is 1% of the first wave, and the speed of the second wave is 1450ms^-1

Therefore the second wave has a frequency of 1% of 3.5 = 350/100 Hz = 3.5 Hz

The wavelength is found using the same

formula: wavelength = 1450m/3.5Hz = 414.2857142857.... m ≈ 414 m

Question 2a)

Question 2b)

Question 3) Remember, the speed of sound of the medium = frequency of the medium × wavelength of the medium.

Therefore the wavelength of the medium = speed of sound of the medium / frequency of the medium. This has a similar correlation to the wavelength formula. We are given that all these mediums have a frequency of 1KHz = 1000Hz, where So the wavelength of each medium =

Sawyer launches his 180 kg raft on the Mississippi River by pushing on it with a force of 75N. How long must Sawyer push on the
Daniel [21]

Answer: 4.8 s

Explanation:

We have the following data:

m=180 kg the mass of the raft

F=75 N the force applied by Sawyer

V=2 m/s the raft's final speed

V_{o}=0 m/s the raft's initial speed (assuming it starts from rest)

We have to find the time t

Well, according to Newton's second law of motion we have:

F=m.a (1)

Where a is the acceleration, which can be expressed as:

a=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}=\frac{V-V_{o}}{t-t_{o}} (2)

Substituting (2) in (1):

F=m\frac{V-V_{o}}{t-t_{o}} (3)

Where t_{o}=0

Isolating t from (3):

t=\frac{m(V-V_{o})}{F} (4)

t=\frac{180 kg(2 m/s-0 m/s)}{75 N}

Finally:

t=4.8 s
