List the 4 steps of the Scientific Method in order

Scientific Method 1) Observation – something perceived that causes curiosity 2) Hypothesis – an educated guess 3) Experiment – Physical procedure used to test an idea 4) Theory/Law – witnessed over and over always same results

Complete the Scientific Method Below – Observation: You flip the light switch and nothing happens – Hypothesis: – Experiment: Independent Variable Dependent Variable Control Variables – Data Collected: Qualitative/Quantitative or Both - Explain

You walk 2 meters east, 3 meters south and then 4 meters east. Draw your path as a system of vectors and then show the resultant vector with magnitude and direction.

You walk 2 meters east, 3 meters south and then 4 meters east. Draw your path as a system of vectors and then show the resultant vector with magnitude and direction. Step 1: Pick a scale – 1 inch = 1 meters Step 2: Start with a vector and use the tip to tale method Step 3: Draw the resultant vector starting where your first vector started and ending where you 3 rd vector ended Step 4: Find magnitude of your displacement using your scale or Pythagorean theorem The resultant vector can be broken down into its horizontal and vertical components. The horizontal component is 6 meters and the vertical component is 3 meters. The magnitude is found using the Pythagorean theorem as seen below: c = Square root ( ) = square root (45) = 6.71 meters South of East

From the previous problem explain why the order the vectors is added does not matter.
