The correct answer to the question is Unit i.e a measurement must include both a number and a unit.

EXPLANATION:

During the measurement of any physical quantity, unit plays a crucial role.

The magnitude of a measurement contains two parts known as numerical part and a unit.

This can be understood by an example.

If we say that a body is travelling 5, it gives no idea. Similarly, if we say that the box was pulled to distance metre, it has also no sense.

But, if we say that the body was pulled to 5 metre, it gives an idea about the distance travelled by the body in a specific time interval.

Hence, the magnitude of a measurement is written as -

m = nu.

Here, n is the numerical part and u is the unit.

Hi there, the correct answer is C. Reactivity. I know this is the correct answer because I took this quiz recently. Color, boiling point, and density are all examples of physical properties.

Answer:

bounce up and down

Explanation:

Buoys are used for two main reasons, one is to let the people on land know of a big incoming wave, while the second reason is to generate electricity. When a big wave is approaching the buoy starts to bounce up and down with the strength of the smalled previous waves and then bounce very strongly up as the bigger wave passes by. This movement is combined with pistons within the buoy in order to conduct electricity.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

$a = \dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}$

Explanation:

The acceleration of a circular motion is given by

$a = \omega^2 R$

where $\omega$ is the angular velocity and $R$ is the radius.

Angular velocity is related to the period, T, by

$\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}$

Substitute into the previous formula.

$a = (\dfrac{2\pi}{T})^2 R$

$a = \dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}$

This acceleration does not depend on the linear or angular displacement. Hence, the amount of rotation does not change it.
