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.

A basketball is shot from 2 meters up at an angle of 60° above the x axis at an initial velocity of 9 m/s. What is the maximum h
Nikitich [7]

Hope this helps a little

initial distance up = 2

initial velocity component up = 9 sin 60 = 7.79

v = 9 sin 60 - 9.8 t

when v = 0, we are there

9.8 t = 7.79

t = .795 seconds to top

h = 2 + 7.79(.795) - 4.9(.795^2)

A ball is thrown into the air with a vertical velocity of 50 m/s and a horizontal
daser333 [38]

\mathfrak{\huge{\pink{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Projectile Motion.

Since, here given that, vertical velocity= 50m/s

we know that u*sin(theta) = vertical velocity

so the time taken to reach the maximum height or the time of Ascent is equal to

T = Usin(theta) ÷ g, here g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we get as,

T = 50/9.8

T = 5.10 seconds

thus the time taken to reach max height is 5.10 seconds.

The magnetic field strength at the north pole of a 2.0-cmcm-diameter, 8-cmcm-long Alnico magnet is 0.10 TT. To produce the same
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

2653 turns

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter,d=2 cm

Length of magnet,l=8 cm=8\times 10^{-2} m

1m=100 cm

Magnetic field,B=0.1 T

Current,I=2.4 A

We are given that

Magnetic field of solenoid and magnetic are same and size of both solenoid and magnetic are also same.

Length of solenoid=8\times 10^{-2} m

Magnetic field of solenoid

B=\frac{\mu_0NI}{l}

Using the formula

0.1=\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 2.4\times N}{8\times 10^{-2}}

Where \mu_0=4\pi\times 10^{-7}

N=\frac{0.1\times 8\times 10^{-2}}{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 2.4}=2653 turns

As an emergency vehicle approaches Bob and moves away from Jill, how does the actual frequency of the siren change? A) As an eme
Tamiku [17]
The correct answer is: 
<span>C) The actual frequency of the siren does not change despite appearances.

In fact, Bob will observe an increase in the apparent frequency as the emergency vehicle approaches him, while Jill will observe a decrease in the apparent frequency as the emergency vehicle moves away from him, because of the Doppler effect (the relative velocity between the observer and the source of the sound is changing), but this effect involves the apparent frequency, while the real frequency of the siren will remain the same.</span>
