Kinetic Theory of Gas
The Kinetic Theory of gases is a classical model of gases, according to which gases are composed of molecules/particles that are in random motion. While undergoing this random motion, kinetic energy in molecules can assume random velocity across all dire…
P-V Diagram
A P-V diagram is a very important tool of the branch of physics known as thermodynamics, which is used to analyze the working and hence the efficiency of thermodynamic engines. As the name suggests, it is used to measure the changes in pressure (P) and v…

To determine

The manner in which the hypothesis can be tested.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 46R

Some hypotheses cab tested by making observation.

Explanation of Solution

Some hypotheses can be tested by making observation. Other can be tested by building a model and relating it to real life. Measuring the mass per volume ratio of the sphere at different temperature we can check the density of the sphere.

Conclusion:

Hence, some hypotheses cab tested by making observation.
