Answer:

0.912

Explanation:

Given that

Height of bouncing of the ball, h = 1.71 m

Number of times the ball bounced, n = 4 times

Height from which the ball was dropped, H = 2.47

First, let's start by defining what coefficient of restitution means

Coefficient of Restitution, CoR is the "ratio of the final to initial relative velocity between two objects after they collide. It normally ranges from 0 to 1 where 1 would be a perfectly elastic collision."

It is mathematically represented as

CoR = (velocity after collision) / (velocity before collision)

1.71 = 2.47 * c^4, where c = CoR

1.71/2.47 = c^4

c^4 = 0.6923

c = 4th root of 0.6923

c = 0.912

Choose all of the true statements regarding the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current. Current is measured in am
AveGali [126]

-- <u><em>Current is measured in amps.</em></u>  (You can use any symbol you want to represent current, but the most common one is " I ", not "Δ".)

-- <u><em>The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is mathematically defined by Ohm's Law. </em></u>

-- <u><em>Current is the flow of electrons through a circuit.</em></u>

-- (Ohm's Law is NOT mathematically represented by the equation V=I/R.)  <u><em>It should be V = I · R</em></u> .  

(When solving for Resistance in a circuit and both voltage and current are known values, the equation I =V*R is not true, and not the way to solve it.)  <u><em>If the resistance is what you're looking for, then the equation to use is  </em></u><u><em>R = V / I</em></u><u><em> .  </em></u>

<em>-- </em><u><em>If the voltage in a circuit is increased, the current will also increase.</em></u>

Answer: yes a quantity have different dimensions in different system of units . No,because in different system of units doesn't change the quantity but it only changes the numerical.

Good luck !
