<u>NO.</u><u>  Since </u><u>"c"</u><u> has no dimensions, the value of its exponent </u><u>"n" </u><u>is irrelevant to dimensional analysis, and thus </u><u>dimension analysis </u><u>cannot be used to determine the value of </u><u>"n".</u>

Dimensional analysis is not applicable to proportionality constants, trigonometrical or exponential equations, equation consisting of sum or difference of some quantities and equation consisting of more than three fundamental quantities.

What is Dimensional analysis?

  • Dimensional Analysis is a problem-solving technique that makes use of the fact that any number or expression can be multiplied by one without changing its value.
  • It is also known as the Factor-Label Method or the Unit Factor Method. It is a practical method.

What is a dimensional analysis used for?

Dimensional analysis is a method used in engineering and the physical sciences to reduce physical properties like acceleration, viscosity, and energy to their three basic dimensions of length, mass, and time (T).

When the plutonium bomb was tested in New Mexico in 1945, approximately 1 gram of matter was converted into energy. Suppose anot
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The value is E =  1.35 *10^{14} \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of matter converted to energy on first test is  m  =  1 \  g  = 0.001 \  kg

    The mass of matter converted to energy on second test m_1 =  1.5 \  g = 1.5 *10^{-3} \ kg

    Generally the amount of energy that was released by  the explosion is  mathematically  represented as  

         E =  m * c^2

=>       E =  1.5 *10^{-3}  * [ 3.0 *10^{8}]^2

=>       E =  1.35 *10^{14} \ J

A certain tuning fork vibrates at a frequency of 215 Hz while each tip of its two prongs has an amplitude of 0.832 mm. (a) What
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of vibration, f = 215 Hz

Amplitude, A = 0.832 mm

(a) Let T is the period of this motion. It is given by the following relation as :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{1}{215}

T=4.65\times 10^{-3}\ s

(b) Speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

It can be given by :

v=f\times \lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{215\ Hz}

\lambda=1.59\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. An Alaskan rescue plane drops a package of emergency rations to str
Vlad [161]

Answer:

(a) The package lands 682 meters horizontally ahead from the point the package was dropped from the plane

(b) The horizontal component = 39.0 m/s

The vertical component = 171.55 m/s

(c) The angle of impact is 77.19°

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Velocity of the plane, vₓ = 39.0 m/s

Height of the plane above the ground, h = 1.50 × 10² m = 1,500 m

(a) The time, t, before the package hits the ground when dropped from the plane is given by the relation;

h = u·t + 1/2×g×t²

Where:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

u = Initial vertical velocity = 0 m/s

Hence;

1500 = 0×t + 1/2 × 9.81 × t² = 4.905·t²

∴ t = √(1500/4.905) = 17.49 s

The horizontal distance the package travels before landing = 17.49 × 39 ≈ 682 m

The package lands 682 meters horizontally ahead from the point the package was dropped from the plane

(b) The vertical velocity, v_y, of the package just before landing is given by the relation;

v_y² = u² + 2·g·h

u = 0 m/s

∴ v_y² = 0 + 2×9.81×1500 = 29430 m²/s²

v_y = √29430  = 171.55 m/s

Hence the horizontal component = 39.0 m/s

The vertical component = 171.55 m/s

(c) The angle of impact, θ, is given as follows;

tan \theta = \dfrac{v_y}{v_x}  = \dfrac{171.55}{39.0 } = 4.4

∴ θ = tan⁻¹(4.4) = 77.19°.

Weight is used most often for measuring____________________ whereas volume is used most often for measuring_____________________
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Weight is used most often for measuring solid whereas volume is used most often for measuring liquid.

Explanation:

Weight is used most often for measuring solid, because solids have definite shape.  Weight is usually expressed in Newton (N) because it is a function of mass and gravity. ( weight = mass x gravity).

Whereas  volume is used most often for measuring liquid, usually expressed in cubic meter (m³) because liquids have no definite shape, rather they occupy the volume of their container.
