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.

A water slide is constructed so that swimmers, starting from rest at the top of the slide, leave the end of the slide traveling
solniwko [45]

Answer:

17.86 m

Explanation:

The first step is to find the velocity of the swimmer.

Velocity, v = s/t

Velocity, v = 5 / 0.27

Velocity, v = 18.52 m/s

Then, we find the height

h = ½gt²

h = ½ * 9.8 * 0.27²

h = 4.9 * 0.0729

h = 0.36 m

Next, we apply the law of conservation of energy

mgH = mgh + ½ mv²

9.8Hm = m(9.8 * 0.36 + 0.5 * 18.52²)

9.8H = 3.528 + 171.4952

9.8H = 175.02

H = 175.02 / 9.8

H = 17.86 m

Therefore, the needed height is 17.86 m

Please help wave number 3
ELEN [110]
Hello!

In Wave 3, there are 40 waves in the wave train. To find the Wavelength of the wave, you'll need to use a ruler to find the measure of the wave in centimeters (I can't really measure the wave because I would be measuring a picture and I wouldn't know if I was accurately measuring the wave), but I would estimate it to be about 2cm long. For the amplitude, I am not certain on what the amplitude would be. I could only manage to find the amount of wave sand the estimated length.

I hope this helps!
