Describe a situation in your everyday life where you could use the scientific method. List all the steps of the scientific metho
emmainna [20.7K]

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!

Give reasons for the following:
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

a. lower surface area, less resistence

b. more surface area, the load is split so no single tire overstrained

c. more surface area, more resistance against the sand. human steps sink down in the sand.

d. rapid change in air pressure on eardrums lead to somewhat-painful tension

e. air would always find its way in so no pressure difference can be achieved

(would indeed appreciate the brainliest if you appreciate the work)

The transfer of thermal energy is a major aspect of which branch of physics?
scZoUnD [109]
Mechanics is dealing with forces that are effecting some body, electrostatics is about electrical fields of not moving bodies, and quantum mechanics is dealing with quantum states of atoms. 

Thermodynamics as the word say, is dealing with thermal energy that is moving (transferring from one body to another or even better from one medium to another).

Answer is C <span />

Warm air is more dense than cool air. Warm air is less dense than cool air Warm air and cool air have the same density
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

You are exactly right. The molecules in hot air are moving faster than the molecules in cold air. Because of this, the molecules in hot air tend to be further apart on average, giving hot air a lower density. That means, for the same volume of air, hot air has fewer molecules and so it weighs less

At a circus, a human cannonball is shot from a cannon at 15m/s at an angle of 40° above horizontal. She
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

a

The height is   H  = 6.74 \  m

b

The horizontal distance is  D  = 23.74 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The speed is  v  =  15 \  m/s

  The angle is  \theta  =  40^o

   The height of the cannon from the ground is  h  =  2 m

  The distance of the net from the ground is k  =  1 m

 

Generally the maximum height she reaches is mathematically represented as  

     H  =  \frac{v^2 sin^2 \theta }{2 *  g }  +  h

=>    H  =  \frac{(15)^2 [sin (40)]^2 }{2 * 9.8}  +  2

=>    H  = 6.74 \  m

Generally from kinematic equation  

    s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2

Here s is the displacement which is mathematically represented as

         s  =  [-(h-k)]  

    =>  s =  -(2-1)

    =>  s  = -1 m

There reason why s =  -1 m is because upward motion canceled the downward motion remaining only the distance of the net from the ground which was covered during the first half but not covered during the second half

     a =  -g = -9.8

    u  =  v sin (\theta)

So

    -1 = (vsin 40 )t + \frac{1}{2} * (-9.8) t^2

=>  -4.9t^2 + 9.6418t + 1 = 0

using  quadratic formula to solve the equation we have

    t  =  2.07 \  s

Generally distance covered along the horizontal is  

   D  =  v cos (40) *  2.07

=>   D  =  15 cos (40) *  2.07

=>   D  = 23.74 \  m
