The mean may be calculated by summing the values of the refractive index and dividing the sum by the number of experiments. This is:
Mean = (1.45 + 1.56 + 1.54 + 1.44 + 1.54 + 1.53)/6
Mean = 1.51

The mean absolute error is the sum of the absolute values of errors divided by the number of trials:
MAE = (|1.45-1.51|+|1.56-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.44-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.53-1.51|)/6
MAE = 0.043

The fractional error is the MAE divided by the actual value:
Fractional error = 0.043 / 1.51
Fractional error = 43/1510

The percentage error is the fractional error multiplied by 100:
Percentage error = 2.85%

Ina shoots a large marble (Marble A, mass: 0.08 kg) at a smaller marble (Marble B, mass: 0.05 kg) that is sitting still. Marble
stich3 [128]

From the calculations, the final momentum of B is 8.16 m/s

<h3>What is conservation of linear momentum?</h3>

According to the principle of the conservation of linear momentum, the momentum before collision is equal to the total momentum after collision.

This implies that;

MaUa + MbUb = MaVa + MaVa

Substituting values;

(0.08 kg * 0.5 m/s) + (0.05 kg * 0 m/s) = (0.08 kg * −0.1 m/s) + (0.05 kg * v)

0.4 = -0.008 + 0.05v

v = 8.16 m/s

How much force is needed to accelerate a 1,100 kg car at a rate of 1.5 m/s2?
Anna [14]
Assuming there is no force of friction...

F = ma
F = (1300kg)(1.5m/s^2)
F = 1950N
Just multiply mass by acceleration.
1300 x 1.5 = 1950N.

You have a piece of cork with a volume of 2 cm^3 and a density of 210kg/m^3. You hold it under water and release it.
insens350 [35]

I am sorry if it didn't helped

answers;

Calculate the buoyant force of a piece of cork of 8cm3 that floats in water. Density of cork is 207kg/m3. ?

I need the mass, in order to get the volume to apply t to the Buoyancy formula of: B=(W)object=(m)object(g)

Explanation:

From Archimedes Principle, any object partially or totally submerged in a fluid is buoyed upwards with a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.

MamaMia's Pizza purchases its pizza delivery boxes from a printing supplier. MamaMia's delivers on-average 200 pizzas each month
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

a) 138 units

b) 17 units

c) 17 units

d) Total Cost = $353.35

Explanation:

Given:

Average pizzas delivered = 200

Charge of inventory holding = 30% of cost

Lead time = 7 days

Now,

a) Economic Order Quantity =  \sqrt\frac{2\times\textup{Annual Demand}\times\textup{Cost per Order}}{\textup{Carrying cost}}

also,

Annual Demand = 200 × 12 = 2400

Cost per Order = Cost of Box + Processing Costs

= 30 cents + $10

= $10.30

and, Carrying Cost = \frac{\textup{Total Inventory Cost}}{\textup{total annual demand}}

=\frac{\textup{Total Cost per order}\times\textup{Annual demand}\times\frac{25}{100}}{\textup{Annual demand}}

= \frac{\$10.30\times2400}\times\frac{25}{100}}{2400}

= $2.575

Therefore,

Economic Order Quantity =  \sqrt\frac{2\times\textup{2400}\times\textup{10.30}}{\textup{2.575}}

= 138.56 ≈ 138 units

b) Reorder Point

= (average daily unit sales × the lead time in days) + safety stock

= (\frac{200}{30}\times7

= 46.67 ≈ 47 units

c) Number of orders per year = \frac{\textup{Annual Demand}}{\textup{Economic order quantity}}

= \frac{\textup{2400}}{\textup{138}}

= 17.39 ≈ 17 units

d) Total Annual Cost (Total Inventory Cost)

= Ordering Cost + Holding Cost

Now,

The ordering Cost = Cost per Order × Total Number of orders per year

= $10.30 × 17

= $175.1

and,

Holding Cost = Average Inventory Held × Carrying Cost per unit

Average Inventory Held = \frac{\textup{0+138}}{\textup{2}} =  69

Carrying Cost per unit = $2.575

Holding Cost = 69 × $2.575 =  

$177.675

Therefore,

Total Cost = Ordering Cost + carrying cost

= $175.1  + $177.675 = $353.35
