Answer:

The change in temperature of 576.9°C will produce an elongation of 9 inches per feet in steel.

Explanation:

The formula for linear expansion of a material is:

ΔL = αLΔT

where, ΔL = change in length

             L = Original length

           ΔT = Change in temperature

             α = coefficient of linear expansion

For steel, α = 13 x 10^-6 /°C

                L = 100 ft

                ΔL = (9 in)(1 ft/12 in) = 0.75 ft

Therefore,

0.75 ft = (13 x 10^-6 /°C)(100 ft)ΔT

<u>ΔT = 576.9°C</u>

dangina [55]
Send wave from your location to the object and wait until echo is back.
Measure the time taken.

If you know the speed of wave (say sound wave), than just multiply by half time taken wave to return

In lecture, it was discussed measurements of mass, temperature, time, volume and length. which of these is not an si base unit (
photoshop1234 [79]

From the options provided in the question, the measurement which is not an SI base unit is volume.

<h3>What is SI base unit?</h3>

This is referred to as the standard and fundamental unit of measurement of various quantities or variables which is defined arbitrarily and not by combinations of other units.

Volume is a quantity which is derived from the combination of lengths in a  three-dimensional manner which is why the formula is length× breadth×height and the unit is cm³. This is gotten from the combination of the unit of length which is cm.

This is therefore the reason why volume was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

Death Star has a diameter of 160,000m and a mass of 5.1e17kg. Millennium Falcon has a mass of 1.36e6kg (data from Wookieepedia)
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

7229 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Death Star and the Millenium Falcon is given by:

F=G\frac{mM}{R^2}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

M=5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg is the mass of the Death Star

m=1.36\cdot 10^6 kg is the mass of the Millennium Falcon

R=\frac{160,000 m}{2}=80,000 m is the radius of the Death Star

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the force

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(1.36\cdot 10^6 kg)(5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg)}{(80,000 m)^2}=7229 N

Which property of a measurement is best estimated from the percent error? accuracy median precision range
Katena32 [7]

"Accuracy" would be the best option from the list regarding the property of a measurement that is best estimated from the percent error, since the higher the error is the lower the accuracy.


Explanation:

When taking scientific measurements, it's vital to be each correct and precise. Accuracy represents however shut a mensuration involves its true price. This can be vital as a result of unhealthy instrumentality, poor processing or human error will result in inaccurate results that aren't terribly getting ready to the reality.
