Answer:

Accuracy measures how close results are to the true or known value. Precision, on the other hand, measures how close results are to one another.

Juliette [100K]
Mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the output force over the input force or M=Fo/Fi. Since M=1, Fi=Fo, or the input force is equal to the output force. This means that to raise the refrigerator that weighs 900 N, we need the same input force of 900 N, or Fo=Fi=900 N.

Before giving an injection, a nurse dabs some alcohol onto the patient`s arm. This makes the patient`s skin feels cold. Explain
mezya [45]

Answer:

Before giving an injection, a nurse dabs some alcohol onto the patient`s arm. This makes the patient`s skin feels cold. Explain Why ?

<em> Evaporative cooling makes this to be possible</em>

Explanation:

The concept

For a liquid to evaporate, there must be a breakdown of the bond between the molecules of the liquid. These bonds are broken when the molecules gain heat energy. So basically evaporation occurs when the molecules of the substance gain energy in form of heat.

Our Scenario

Just like the way our body excretes sweat on a sunny day, alcohol takes energy from the skin to evaporate. The bond holding the molecules of alcohol breaks faster due to its low boiling point and this account why it evaporates faster. The sudden evaporation of alcohol when dabbed on the skin results in quick utilization of heat energy making the skin feel cold for some time.

The utilization of heat energy from the skin results in evaporation cooling which makes the skin feel colder.

A ball is thrown horizontally. What is the ball's acceleration at its highest point
natka813 [3]
At the highest point of motion the ball comes to rest momentarily,but it is being pulled down due to the effect of gravity,so its net acceleration is downwards. So,just after that point,it starts falling downwards.
