The time measured is 25 seconds. The error in the measurement is 0.2 seconds. The % error is therefore 
(0.2/25)x100 = 0.8%. 

The period of one oscillation is 25/20=1.25 seconds. The error in the period is 0.8/100 x 1.25 = 0.01 second. 
<span> 
ie period = 1.25 +/- 0.01 s.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

A box (m = 20 kg) is sliding on a horizontal surface. it is connected to a massless hook by a light string passing over a massle
Varvara68 [4.7K]

mass of the box = 20 kg

force of friction on the box due to surface

F_s = \mu_s N

F_s = 0.80 * 20 * 9.8

F_s = 156.8 N

similarly kinetic friction on it

F_k = \mu_k N

F_k = 0.30* 20 * 9.8

F_k = 58.8 N

now the weight of the suspended block will be

W = mg = 15*9.8 = 147 N

so here the weight of the suspended block is less than the limiting friction on it

So here we will say that friction will counter balance the weight of the suspended block and it will not move at all

So acceleration of the box will be zero

Two beams of coherent light travel different paths, arriving at point P. If the maximum destructive interference is to occur at
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The path difference between the two waves should be one-half of a wavelength

Explanation:

When two beams of coherent light travel different paths, arriving at point P. If the maximum destructive interference is to occur at point P , then the condition for it is that the path difference of two beams must be odd multiple of half wavelength. Symbolically

path difference = ( 2n+1 ) λ / 2

So path difference may be λ/2 , 3λ/ 2,  5λ/ 2 etc .

Hence right option is

The path difference between the two waves should be one-half of a wavelength.
