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

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Ecliptic

Explanation:

The path the sun, moon, and planets take across the sky as seen from Earth. It defines the plane of the Earth's orbit around the sun. The name "Ecliptic" comes from the fact that eclipses take place along this line.

Write this large number in scientific notation. Determine the values of Vm) and (n) when the following mass of the Earth is writ
hichkok12 [17]

Answer : The answer is, 5.97, 24

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is the representation of expressing the numbers that are too big or too small and are represented in the decimal form with one digit before the decimal point times 10 raise to the power.

For example :

5000 is written as 5.0\times 10^3

889.9 is written as 8.899\times 10^{-2}

In this examples, 5000 and 889.9 are written in the standard notation and 5.0\times 10^3  and 8.899\times 10^{-2}  are written in the scientific notation.

If the decimal is shifting to right side, the power of 10 is negative and if the decimal is shifting to left side, the power of 10 is positive.

As we are given the 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 in standard notation.

Now converting this into scientific notation, we get:

\Rightarrow 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000=5.97\times 10^{24}

As, the decimal point is shifting to left side, thus the power of 10 is positive.

Hence, the answer is, 5.97\times 10^{24}

Now the answer is comparing to m.\times 10^n

So, m = 5.97 and n = 24

Thus, the answer is, 5.97, 24
