If the accuracy in measuring the position of a particle increases, what happens to the accuracy in measuring its velocity? - The

accuracy in measuring its velocity becomes uncertain.
- The accuracy in measuring its velocity remains the same.
- The accuracy in measuring its velocity also increases.

Answer:

- The accuracy in measuring its velocity decreases.

Explanation:

This can be explained by Heisenberg's uncertainty principle which states that the position and velocity of a particle can be determined together exactly in reality.

This principle, unlike Newtonian mechanics deal with particles at microscopic level like that of an electron where if the accuracy in measurement of particle's position increases there will be  decreased accuracy in measurement of velocity of that particle.

There will be an uncertainty in accuracy in the measurement of particle's position and its velocity.

A plucked violin string carries a traveling wave given by the equation f(x,t)=asin[b(x−ct)+ϕi], with a = 0.00580 m , b = 33.05 m
Viktor [21]

Answer:

A) Φ = 0 , B)  T = 7.76 s

Explanation:

A) to find the value of the phase constant replace the value

          0 = a sin (b (0- 0) + Φ)

           0 = sin Φ

           Φ = sin⁻¹ 0

           Φ = 0

B) the period is defined by time or when the movement begins to repeat itself

So that the sine function is repeated when the angle passes 2pi

            b (x- ct) = 2pi

If we are at a fixed point x = 0

           b c t = 2pi

            t = 2π / bc

Let's calculate

            T = 2π / (33.05 245)

            T = 7.76 s

Mike walks 200 km in 6 hours.he then walks another 100km in 4 hours .what is his average speed?
kolbaska11 [484]

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance covered in total given time

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

here we know that total distance that man moved is

d_1 = 200 km

d_2 = 100 km

so total distance is

d = d_1 + d_2

d = 200 km + 100 km

d = 300 km

now here total time of the motion is

t_1 = 6 hours

t_2 = 4 hours

total time will be given as

t = t_1 + t_2

t = 6 + 4 = 10 hours

now by above formula

v_{avg} = \frac{300}{10}

v_{avg} = 30 km/h

so his average speed is 30 km/h

How much heat is required to convert 0.3 kg of ice at 0°C to water at the same temperature
madreJ [45]

Answer:  

100,800 Jkg


The heat that is used to change the state of a mater is called latent heat.

In this case it is converting ice to water and it is called latent heat of fusion.

It is given by:

Heat  = mc

where m is the mass of ice and l is the specific latent heat of fusion of ice.

l = 0.336 MJ

Heat = 0.3 × 0.336 MJ

        = 0.3 × 0.336 × 10⁶

        = 100,800 Jkg
