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.

Wind resistance _____ as speed increases.
Rudik [331]

The correct option is option B that wind resistance increases dramatically.

Explanation:

When the speed of an object increases resistance increases drastically because the object pushing through air has obtained a high speed but the air is unable to move out of the way so fast so show it tends to get compressed and oppose the moving object and the object names to put more pressure because some of the pressure goes into cutting air and moving through it.

A very light ping-pong ball moving east at a speed of 4 m/s collides with a very heavy stationary bowling ball. The Ping-Pong ba
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

They experience the same magnitude impulse

Explanation:

We have a ping-pong ball colliding with a stationary bowling ball. According to the law of conservation of momentum, we have that the total momentum before and after the collision must be conserved:

where is the initial momentum of the ping-poll ball

is the initial momentum of the bowling ball (which is zero, since the ball is stationary)

is the final momentum of the ping-poll ball

is the final momentum of the bowling ball

We can re-arrange the equation as follows or

which means (1) so the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ping-pong ball is equal to the magnitude of the change in momentum of the bowling ball.

However, we also know that the magnitude of the impulse on an object is equal to the change of momentum of the object:

(2) therefore, (1)+(2) tells us that the ping-pong ball and the bowling ball experiences the same magnitude impulse:

What's the velocity for each trial? <br> And what's the average velocity?
adelina 88 [10]
Since each time trial is the same the average will be the direct answer, and the formula for velocity is distance divided by time, therefore it will come out to, 1.92307692. Whatever your teacher what the rounding process to be will vary but the straight up answer is there.
