Why the fact that earth and the moon have different densities favors the collision theory of lunar formation?

It seems odd to postulate that the planets/moons in our galaxy were the result of collisions. If that were true, why have we not been witnessing recurring collisions-- with the creation of other new planets/moons?


How would you use theory in a sentence?

I would use the word "theory" in a sentence like this: "The scientist presented a new theory to explain the findings of the experiment."


What theory did Alfred wegner introduce?

Alfred Wegener introduced the theory of continental drift, which proposed that Earth's continents were once joined together as a single supercontinent called Pangea and have since moved to their current positions. This theory laid the foundation for the development of the modern theory of plate tectonics.


What did the theory of plate tectonics replace?

The theory of plate tectonics replaced the older theory of continental drift. It provided a more comprehensive explanation for the movement of Earth's lithospheric plates and the processes that shape our planet's surface.


Did Alfred Wegner provide evidence from land forms and climate in support of his theory of the shrinking Earth?

Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift, not a shrinking Earth theory. He used evidence such as the fit of the continents, matching rock formations, and fossil distribution to support his idea that the continents had once been part of a single landmass called Pangaea. Wegener's theory eventually led to the development of the theory of plate tectonics.

Did postulate 4 of Daltons atomic theory holds true now?

No, postulate 4 of Dalton's atomic theory, which stated that atoms of the same element are identical, is not entirely true. We now know that isotopes exist, which are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. This means that atoms of the same element can have slightly different masses.


What is the different between postulate and theory?

A postulate is a basic assumption or principle accepted without proof, while a theory is an explanation supported by evidence and experimentation. Postulates serve as starting points for developing theories, which are more comprehensive and detailed explanations of natural phenomena. Theories can be revised or replaced based on new evidence, whereas postulates are typically seen as foundational truths within a particular framework.


What postulate of Dalton's atomic theory is based on the law of conservation of mass?

Through his experiments, John Dalton was able to show that, even through chemical reactions, the beginning mass of the reactants and the final mass of the products were equal.


Which postulate of Dalton atomic theory came from the low of constant proportions given by Proust?

Dalton's atomic theory is it still believed today?

of course Dalton's atomic theory is still believed today. but it has some defects, like his first postulate states that an atom is indivisible. but as you know its not correct. but the 4th and 5th postulate of his were exactly correct and are still the basis today. for a better answer please check on wikipedia.
