Answer:
To minimize the practical errors and improve the accuracy.
Explanation:
- Scientists take several measurements and use the average of all the measured values to minimize the practical errors due to unavoidable circumstances and be close to the true value.
- True value is the actual value of a measured parameter without any error, it is the value which is proposed in the design of a certain object.
- Variations may occur in the measurement due to wear and tear, dust and air pressure. It is almost impossible to create ideal surrounding for the measurement procedure.
Answer:
B- Opposes the motion
Explanation:
When two object touches each other. friction acts in a opposite direction to the motion of the object
Explanation:
A wave is a disturbance in a medium. For example, when some pebbles are thrown in water, the water particles gets disturbed. A wave is characterized by the following parameters i.e.
Frequency
Wavelength etc
The number of oscillations or vibrations in a medium is called the frequency of a wave.
Also, the distance between two consecutive crests and troughs is called the wavelength of a wave. The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by :
Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength
Answer: potassium
Explanation: An atom of potassium would have a very easy time losing one electron to form an ionic bond with an atom of an element that would easily accept it.
