It is very important because scientists, especially the ones with empirical experiments and results, are prone to error and the empirical data is in need to be under strict observation done not only by many scientists but also by expermiented ones. This guards everybody to change the parameters suddenly which can affect the real results of an experiment

It is important to consider the experimental error in all empirical results because it is a measure of the accuracy of the results and the reliability of the method. It gives insight on how wrong the results are and how the method can be improved.

<h3>Further Explanation </h3>

Accuracy

No measurement is completely accurate. There is always some degree of error in the measurements. The closeness of a measurement to the true value is called accuracy.  

Precision

Precision is how close measurements are to each other. Higher precision instruments allow the measurements to be very close to each other and give a better approximation of a measurement and increases the accuracy of the reading as well.  

Experimental errors are considered to ensure that the data or the method is accurate and reliable. The lower the experimental error, the more confidence we have that the measurement is near the true value. It also provides insight about how to optimize the method to yield better results.

Kinds of Experimental Error

Random error

Random errors are errors that are beyond the control of the experimenter. These are variations that happen by chance and may be reduced by performing multiple trials and averaging the results.

Systematic error

Errors incurred by the way the experiment was conducted are called systematic errors. Their effect cannot be reduced by doing more trials but by changing the design or the method used to obtain the results.

A driver notices that her 1280 kg car slows down from 92 km/h to 68 km/h in about 7.5 s on the level when it is in neutral. Appr
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

P = 25299.75 watts

Since 80km/h is the average speed of 92km/h and 68km/h, the power (in watts) is needed to keep the car traveling at a constant 80 km/h is P = 25299.75 watts

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of car m = 1280kg

initial speed v1 = 92km/h = 92×1000/3600 m/s= 25.56m/s

Final speed v2 = 68km/h = 68×1000/3600 m/s= 18.89m/s

time taken t = 7.5s

Change in the kinetic energy of the car within that period;

∆K.E = 1/2 ×mv1^2 - 1/2 × mv2^2

∆K.E = 0.5m(v1^2 -v2^2)

Substituting the values, we have;

∆K.E = 0.5×1280(25.56^2 - 18.89^2)

∆K.E = 189748.16J

Power used during this Change;

Power P = ∆K.E/t

Substituting the values;

P = 189748.16/7.5

P = 25299.75 watts

Since 80km/h is the average speed of 92km/h and 68km/h, the power (in watts) is needed to keep the car traveling at a constant 80 km/h is P = 25299.75 watts

<span>I don't think there is enough information from the question. If you are asked to calculate the number of microbes in a certain area., then it should be that the total area or maybe the volume of that should be given so you can estimate the number of microbes. Hope this helps.</span>
