A student states, "The wave model is better than the particle model for electromagnetic radiation because it is easier to unders

tand." Is the student's statement a scientific claim?(1 point)
Yes, it is because simpler scientific models are better.

No, it isn't because the particle model is better than the wave model.

No, it isn't because the statement is an opinion.

Yes, it is because there is ample proof that wave models are easier.

The student's claim did not follow the scientific method of discovery, hence, it is an opinion not a scientific claim.

<h3>What is the scientific method?</h3>

The scientific method is a procedure employed by scientific towards understanding the world around them as well giving explanation for phenomena in the natural world.

The scientific method involves:

  • observations
  • asking questions
  • putting forward a hypothesis
  • testing the hypothesis through experiments
  • analyzing results of the experiments and drawing conclusions
  • establishing a theory.

Since the student in question just put forward an opinion without testing it out using the scientific method, the statement is not a scientific claim.

Which type of relationship is formed when a megabat eats a fig and drops the
Alina [70]

The type of relationship formed when a megabat eats a fig and drops the seeds in a new location is COMENSALISM. It is an ecological interaction.

<h3>What is commensalism?</h3>

Commensalism is a type of ecological interaction in which one organism benefits (in this case, the tree)  and the other organism neither benefits nor harm (the megabat).

Mutualism is a type of ecological association in which both organisms benefit from such interaction.

Conversely, parasitism is a type of ecological interaction in which one organism benefits and the other organism is harmed.

How does an increase in thermal energy affect the state of matter?
shusha [124]

Answer:

When thermal energy is added to a substance, its temperature increases, which can change its state from solid to liquid (melting), liquid to gas (vaporization), or solid to gas (sublimation). ... When the pressure exerted on a substance increases, it can cause the substance to condense.

An object rotates about a fixed axis, and the angular position of a reference line on the object is given by θ = 0.220e3t, where
OLga [1]

Answer:a_{t}=3.96

a_{c}=0.8712

Explanation:

Given

\theta =0.220e^{3t}

r=2cm

Now angular velocity is given by \omega =\frac{\mathrm{d}\theta}{\mathrm{d}t}

\omega =0.66e^{3t}

Now linear velocity(v) is given =\omega r

v=1.32e^{3t}

Now tangential component of acceleration is given by

a_{t}=\frac{\mathrm{d}\vec{v}}{\mathrm{d}t}=3.96e^{3t}

at t=0

a_{t}=3.96cm/s^2

radial component of acceleration is given by

a_{c}=\omega ^{2}r

a_{c}=0.4356e^{6t}\times 2

a_{c}=0.8712e^{6t} cm/s^{2}

at t=0

a_c=0.8712 cm/s^{2}
