Question 1 of 10 Which situation is most likely to lead to improving a scientific theory?
O A. Development of new technologies
B. Relaxing government restrictions
C. Repeating an experiment to verify results
D. Increased funding for research

The correct option is;

C. Repeating an experiment to verify results

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a statement explaining an observed natural phenomenon which can be simulated for verification ensuring that all protocols of the scientific method of investigation are observed.

By repeating the experiment under particular conditions such as through verification of data from direct observation such as in astronomy, a scientific theory can be improved by pointing out the natural behavior of the phenomenon to better clarify the assumptions made in the theory.

the closer the planet is to the sun, the larger the gravity

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
