repeated mesurement can reduce the error

it is true

if you take any mesurement repeatedly and the average is taken, the error will be less

When you bent the plastic ruler, what did you observe in its size?

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The size will increase.

Explanation:

When you bend a plastic ruler, it's size will increase because it is elastic and will exhibit elastic deformation. When it is been bent, it will continue to stretch until it get to a point where it will not be able to regain it formal shape, it size wound of increase. Therefore when the ruler get to elastic limit and you have bend it to the point it cannot regain it's formal shape back, it will remain bent and if further force is apply on it,it will break.

Two remote control cars with masses of 1.16 kilograms and 1.98 kilograms travel toward each other at speeds of 8.64 meters per s

Black_prince [1.1K]

The initial momentum of the system can be expressed as,

$p_i=m_1u_1+m_{2_{}}u_2$

The final momentum of the system can be given as,

$p_f=m_1v_1+m_{2_{}}v_2$

According to conservation of momentum,

$p_i=p_f$

Plug in the known expressions,

$\begin{gathered} m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2 \\ m_2v_2=m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1 \\ v_2=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1}{m_2} \end{gathered}$

Initially, the second mass move towards the first mass therefore the initial speed of second mass will be taken as negative and the recoil velocity of first mass is also taken as negative.

Plug in the known values,

$\begin{gathered} v_2=\frac{(1.16\text{ kg)(8.64 m/s)+(1.98 kg)(-3.34 m/s)-(1.16 kg)(-2.16 m/s)}}{1.98\text{ kg}} \\ =\frac{10.02\text{ kgm/s-}6.61\text{ kgm/s+}2.51\text{ kgm/s}}{1.98\text{ kg}} \\ =\frac{5.92\text{ kgm/s}}{1.98\text{ kg}} \\ \approx2.99\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the final velocity of second mass is 2.99 m/s.

A truck is carrying a steel beam of length 13.0 m on a freeway. An accident causes the beam to be dumped off the truck and slide

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

$emf= 9.88 \times 10^{-3} T$

Explanation:

Given:

Length of the beam, $l=13\,m$

speed of the beam, $v=20\,m.s^{-1}$

magnitude of the vertical magnetic field, $B=38\times 10^{-6} T$

According to the Faraday's law the emf induced in a rod passing transversely through a magnetic field is given as:

$emf= l.v.B$

$emf=13\times 20\times 38\times 10^{-6}$

$emf= 9.88 \times 10^{-3} T$

Give an example of how the apparent motion of an object depends on the observers motion

QveST [7]

In a moving car the outside looks to be moving. however if viewed from the outside, the car appears to be moving. so motion is relative to the person observing.
