Percent error is the difference between the experimental value and theoretical value and measures the accuracy of the result found. The larger the error, lesser is the accuracy and vice versa.

Solution:

It is a mathematical way of showing accuracy

The higher the percent error, the less accurate the data set,

Answer: Relative motion

Explanation: If two objects are moving either towards or away from each other with both having their velocities in a reference frame and someone is outside this reference frame seeing the motion of the two objects.

The observer ( in his own frame of reference) will measure a different velocity as opposed to the velocities of the two object in their own reference frame. p

Both the velocity measured by the observer in his own reference frame and the velocity of both object in their reference is correct.

Velocities of this nature that have varying values based on motion referenced to another body is known as relative velocity.

Motion of this nature is known as relative motion.

<em>Note that the word reference frame is simply any where the motion is occurring and the specified laws of motion is valid</em>

<em />

For this example of ours, the reference frame of the companion is the train and the telephone poles has their reference frame as the earth.

The companion will measure the velocity of the telephone poles relative to him and the velocity of the telephone pole relative to an observer outside the train will be of a different value.

You leave on a 450 miles trip in order to attend a meeting that will start 10.8 hours after you begin your trip. Along the way y

Lorico [155]

Answer:2.6 h

Explanation:

Given

Total Trip distance=450 miles

Meeting starts after 10.8 hours

safe Fastest speed is 55 mi/h

so if he drives all the to the meeting with max speed then it takes $=\frac{450}{55}=8.181 h$
