If your speedometer has an uncertainty of 2.5 km/h at a speed of 92 km/h, what is the percent uncertainty

Physics
1 answer:
Elis [28]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

2.7%

Explanation:

Given:

Uncertainty of the speedometer (u)= 2.5km/h

Speed measured at that uncertainty (v) = 92km/h

Percent uncertainty (p) is given as the ratio of the uncertainty to the speed measured then multiplied by 100%. i.e

p = \frac{u}{v} * 100%

p = \frac{2.5}{92} * 100%

p = 2.7%

Therefore, the percent uncertainty is 2.7%

Yuri [45]
The force of gravity is much weaker than the strong nuclear force. But the strong nuclear force only acts over short distances, such as within the nuclues. The gravitational force can act over infinite distance.

can somebody help me answer this question? A car went from 110 m/s to 80 m/s in 20 seconds. What was the acceleration of the car
gogolik [260]

Answer:

-1.5m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration can be thought of as [Change in Velocity]/[Change in time]. To find these changes, you simply subtract the initial quantity from the final quantity.

So for this question you have:

  • V_i = 110m/s
  • V_f = 80m/s
  • t_i = 0s
  • t_f = 20s

which means that the acceleration = (80-110)/(20-0)[m/s²] = (-30/20)m/s² = -1.5m/s²

A massive block is being pulled along a horizontal frictionless surface by a constant horizontal force. The block must be ______
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The body must be moving with a constant non zero acceleration.

Explanation:

Force produces acceleration on any mass it is applied on. The acceleration produced depends on the magnitude and direction of the force. For this block being dragged by a constant horizontal force, The body will undergo a constant non-zero acceleration that will steadily increase its velocity along the direction of the force.

</span> The atmosphere is heated both by the Sun and by the Earth's surface. Water radiates heat differently than land, so the air temperature over the ocean is usually different than the air temperature over land. <span>
The difference in air temperature over land compared to over water causes convection currents in the atmosphere. How would a person at the beach experience these convection currents? 
</span>They would feel that the water is cold.

NOT:
They would feel the heat of the Sun.
They would feel that the sand is hot.
<span>They would feel wind as the air moves.</span>
