Answer to Problem 1QP

Option (d)

Explanation of Solution

Empirical science is based on information obtained from observation through experimental work. It is coined from the Greek word empeiria. Empirical science depends on the information accurately obtained from the research that corresponds to the reality.

The data obtained from the analysis is the primary source of Empirical evidence. Empirical evidence is similar to the outcome of an experimental result.

Conclusion:

Since, empirical science is based on information obtained from observation through experimental work. Therefore, option (b) observed data is correct.

Empirical science depends on the information accurately obtained from the research that corresponds to the reality. Thus, option (a), (b), and (c) is incorrect.

64. Two springs have the same unstretched length but different spring constants, k₁ and k₂. (a) If they're connected side by side and stretched a distance x, as shown in Fig. 4.24a, show that the force exerted by the combination is (k₁ + k₂)x. (b) If they're con- nected end to end (Fig. 4.24b) and the combination is stretched a distance x, show that they exert a force k₁k2x/(k₁ + k₂). www (a) FIGURE 4.24 Problem 65 www (b)
65. Although we usually write Newton's second law for one-dimensional motion in the form F =ma, which holds when mass is constant, d(mv) a more fundamental version is F = . Consider an object dt whose mass is changing, and use the product rule for derivatives to show that Newton's law then takes the form F dm = ma + v dt
If a proton is located on the x-axis in some coordinate system at x0 = -3.2 x 10-5 meters, what is the x-component of the Electric Field due to this proton at a position x = +3.2 x 10-5 meters and on the x axis as the y-axis is 0 giving a number of Newtons/Coulomb?
