How do scientists use inference?

1 answer:

5 0

Their inferences are based on evidence that they collect during their investigations. Readers learn that scientists gather and interpret evidence and draw conclusions based on this evidence. ... Once scientists have gathered evidence, they use it to make inferences about the things they are investigating.

Suppose a 49-N sled is resting on packed snow. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.11. If a person weighing 585 N sits on t

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

69.74 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Weight of sled=49 N

Coefficient of kinetic friction $,\mu_k=0.11$

Weight of person=585 N

Total weight==mg=49+585=634 N

We know that

Force needed to pull the sled across the snow at constant speed,F=Kinetic friction

$F=\mu_k N$

Where N= Normal=mg

$F=0.11\times 634=69.74 N$

Hence, the force is needed to pull the sled across the snow at constant speed=69.74 N

A lamp hangs from the ceiling at a height of 2.6 m. The lamp has a mass of 3.8 kg. The screws holding the lamp break, and it fal

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given height of lamp from the ceiling = 2.6m

mass of the lamp = 3.8kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

As the body falls to the ground, it falls under the influence of gravity.

Gravitational potential energy = mass*acc due to gravity * height

Gravitational potential energy = 3.8*2.6*9.81

Gravitational potential energy = 96.923 Joules

b) Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv²

m = mass of the body (in kg)

v = velocity of the body (in m/s²)

To get the velocity v, we will use the equation of motion $v^{2} = u^{2}+2gh$

$v^{2} = 0^{2}+2(9.81)(2.6) \\v^{2} = 51.012\\v =\sqrt{51.012}\\ v = 7.14m/s$

Since mass = 3.8kg

$K.E = 1/2 * 3.8 *7.14^{2}\\ K.E = 96.86Joules$

c) To know how fast the lamp is moving when it hits the ground, we will use the formula. When the body hits the ground, the height covered will be 0m. this means that the body is not moving once it hits the ground. It stays in one position. The energy possessed by the body at this point is potential energy. The correct answer is therefore 0 m/s
