Answer:

a) The uncertainty in calculated V, ΔV = 25.3

b) The uncertainty in calculated v, Δv = 0.41 m/s

c) The uncertainty in calculated V, ΔV = 22.2 V

Explanation:

We'll use Upper-Lower Bounds method of uncertainty to estimate the uncertainties.

a) I = 5.1 A, ΔI = 0.3 A

I = (5.1 ± 0.3) A

R = 77.5 ohms, ΔR = 0.4 ohms

R = (77.5 ± 0.4) ohms

V = IR = 5.1 × 77.5 = 395.25 V

The lower bound for the voltage will be calculated using the lower bounds for the current and resistance

Iₗ = 5.1 - 0.3 = 4.8 A

Rₗ = 77.5 - 0.4 = 77.1 ohms

Vₗ = 4.8 × 77.1 = 370.08 V

The upper bound for the voltage will be calculated using the upper bounds for the current and resistance

Iᵤ = 5.1 + 0.3 = 5.4 A

Rᵤ = 77.5 + 0.4 = 77.9 ohms

Vᵤ = 5.4 × 77.9 = 420.66 V

The average of the differences from the mean voltage/true value is 25.3 V

V = 395.25 V, Δ = 25.3V

V = (395.25 ± 25.3) V

b) x = 2.9 m, Δx = 0.3 m

x = (2.9 ± 0.3) m

t = 4.4 s, Δt = 1.8 s

t = (4.4 ± 1.8) ohms

v = x/t = 2.9/4.4 = 0.659 m/s

The lower bound for average speed will be calculated using the lower bounds for distance and upper bounds for time.

xₗ = 2.9 - 0.3 = 2.6 m

tᵤ = 4.4 + 1.8 = 6.2 s

vₗ = 2.6/6.2 = 0.419 m/s

The upper bound for the average speed will be calculated using the upper bound for the distance and lower bound for time

xᵤ = 2.9 + 0.3 = 3.2 m

tₗ = 4.4 - 1.8 = 2.6 s

vᵤ = 3.2/2.6 = 1.231 m/s

The average of the differences from the mean average speed/true value is 0.41 m/s

v = 0.659 m/s, Δv = 0.41 m/s

v = (0.659 ± 0.41) m/s

c) ) I = 9.8 A, ΔI = 0.5 A

I = (9.8 ± 0.5) A

R = 40.5 ohms, ΔR = 0.2 ohms

R = (40.5 ± 0.2) ohms

V = IR = 9.8 × 40.5 = 396.9 V

The lower bound for the voltage will be calculated using the lower bounds for the current and resistance

Iₗ = 9.8 - 0.5 = 9.3 A

Rₗ = 40.5 - 0.2 = 40.3 ohms

Vₗ = 9.3 × 40.3 = 374.79 V

The upper bound for the voltage will be calculated using the upper bounds for the current and resistance

Iᵤ = 9.8 + 0.5 = 10.3 A

Rᵤ = 40.5 + 0.2 = 40.7 ohms

Vᵤ = 10.3 × 40.7 = 419.21 V

The average of the differences from the mean voltage/true value is 22.2 V

V = 396.9 V, Δ = 22.2 V

V = (396.9 ± 22.2) V

What's the difference between mechanical waves and vibrations
OlgaM077 [116]

A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is limited. Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position.

A group of Advanced Open Water Divers plans to make two dives. The first dive is on a reef in 90 feet of water for 20 minutes. T
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The ending pressure is R.

Explanation:

This is Recreational scuba diving (R). According to standards, this diving has prescribed depth limit of 130 ft. This means that the limit must include a depth that is not greater than 130 ft while using only compressed air and not even requiring a decompression stop.

Now, from the question, we can see that that there was a prescribed limit of 60ft of water with a planned bottom time of 30 minutes.

Thus, the ending pressure is R.

2 kg and 3 kg objects slide together, and then they break apart. If the final velocity of 2 kg is 10 m/s,
lara [203]

Answer:

P = (2 + 3) * V       where V is their initial speed  (total momentum)

P = 2 * 10 + 3 * Vx     where Vx here would be V3

If the initial momentum is not known how can one determine the final velocity of the 3 kg obj.

Also work depends on the sum of the velocities

W (initial) = 1/2 (2 + 3) V^2     the initial kinetic energy

W (final) = 1/2 * 2 * V2^2 + 1/2 * 3 * V3^2

It appears that more information is required for this problem

Polonium, the Period 6 member of Group 6A(16), is a rare radioactive metal that is the only element with a crystal structure bas
Burka [1]

Answer:

Approximate atomic radius for polonium-209 is 167.5 pm .

Explanation:

Number of atom in simple cubic unit cell = Z = 1

Density of platinum = 9.232 g/cm^3

Edge length of cubic unit cell= a = ?

Atomic mass of Po (M) = 209 g/mol

Formula used :  

\rho=\frac{Z\times M}{N_{A}\times a^{3}}

where,

ρ = density

Z = number of atom in unit cell

M = atomic mass

(N_{A}) = Avogadro's number  

a = edge length of unit cell

On substituting all the given values , we will get the value of 'a'.

9.232 g/cm3=\frac{1 \times 209 g/mol}{6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}\times (a)^{3}}

a = 3.35\times 10^{-8} cm

Atomic radius of the polonium in unit cell = r

r = 0.5a

r=0.5\times 3.35\times 10^{-8} cm=1.675\times 10^{-8} cm

1 cm = 10^{10} pm

1.675\times 10^{-8} cm=1.675\times 10^{-8}\times 10^{10}=167.5 pm

Approximate atomic radius for polonium-209 is 167.5 pm.

if you throw a rock straight up at a speed of 19m/s. How long goes it take the ball to reach its maximum height?
Scrat [10]

Answer:

It requires <u>1.9 seconds</u> to reach maximum height.

Explanation:

As per given question,  

Initial velocity (U) =19 m/s

Final velocity (V) = 0 m/s

\text { Taking acceleration due to gravity }(a)=10 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

Maximum height = S

Time taken is "t"

<u>Calculating time taken to reach maximum height:</u>

We know that time taken to reach the maximum height is calculated by using the formula V = U + at

Substitute the given values in the above equation.

Final velocity is “0” as there is no velocity at the maximum height.

0=19+10 \times t

-19=10 \times t

\frac{-19}{10}=t

t = 1.9 seconds.

The time taken to reach maximum height is <u>1.9</u> seconds.

<u>Calculating maximum height</u>:

\text { Consider the equation } V^{2}-U^{2}=2 a S

Solving the equation we will get the value of S

0-19^{2}=2 \times(-10) \times \mathrm{S} .(-\text { is due to opposite of gravity) }

-361 = -20S

Negative sign cancel both the sides.

\mathrm{S}=\frac{361}{20}

S = 18.05 m

Maximum height is 18.05 m  .
