Describe how the basic measurements of length, volume, and mass were determined in the

Physics

Anna11 [10]1 year ago
4 0

the basic measurements of length, volume, and mass are 1 meter, 1 meter³  and 1kilogram.

One 10-millionth of the distance from the North Pole to the equator would equal one meter.

A cube with sides of one meter has a volume of one meter³.

The mass of 1,000 cubic centimeters of water is very close to (and was originally intended to be exactly) one kilograms.

but today a more precise way to define is available in which:

1 meter is defined as the distance traveled by light in 1/3×10⁸ sec.

The weight of a specific platinum-iridium prototype held by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures is defined as 1 kg.

moreover these measurements are man made and are not absolute and therefore many new units of measurement can be defined as long as they are fundamentally same everywhere.

The solution to a disjunction is the what of the two solutions
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

The solution set of a disjunction is the union of the solution sets of the individual inequalities. A convenient way to graph a disjunction is to graph each individual inequality above the number line, then move them both onto the actual number line

A new roller coaster contains a loop-the-loop in which the car and rider are completely upside down. If the radius of the loop i
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.

Explanation:

The radius of the loop is 17.6 m. We need to find the minimum speed must the car traverse the loop so that the rider does not fall out while upside down at the top.

We know that, mg be the weight of car and rider, which is equal to the centripetal force.

mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\v = \sqrt{rg}\\v = \sqrt{17.6\times 9.8}\\v = 13.13\ m/s\\

So, the minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.

What is a horizontal segment meaning on a position vs. time graph?
sergeinik [125]

The velocity of the object is zero (the object is at rest)

Explanation:

A position vs time graph represents the motion of an object; in particular:

  • The position of the object x(t) is represented on the y-axis
  • The time t is represented on the x-axis

For a position-time graph, the slope of the graph is given by

m=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta x is the change in position

\Delta t is the change in time

However, we see that this is equivalent to the definition of velocity:

v=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

Therefore, the slope of  a position-time graph is equivalent to the velocity of the object.

And so, a horizontal segment on a position vs time graph means that the object has zero velocity (because the slope is zero).
