A butcher has a beam balance and masses 0.5kg and 2kg.How would he measure 1.5kg of meat on the balance at once

Physics

LekaFEV [45]2 years ago
6 0

Answer and Explanation:

  • The butcher will balance the meat and the 0.5 kg mass on one side of the beam balance and 2 kg mass on the other side of the beam balance.
  • By so doing, when the beam balances then the amount of meat measured will be exactly 1.5 kg as required. Since the 1.5 kg meat and 0.5 kg mass is equivalent to the 2 kg on the other side of the beam balance.

Inside most ball-point pens is a small spring that compresses as the pen is pressed against the paper. If a force of 0.1 N compr
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

20 N/m

Explanation:

From the question,

The ball-point pen obays hook's law.

From hook's law,

F = ke............................ Equation 1

Where F = Force, k = spring constant, e = compression.

Make k the subject of the equation

k = F/e........................ Equation 2

Given: F = 0.1 N, e = 0.005 m.

Substitute these values into equation 2

k = 0.1/0.005

k = 20 N/m.

Hence the spring constant of the tiny spring is 20 N/m

A block of mass m=9.0 kg and speed V and is behind a block of mass M= 27 kg and speed of .50 m/s. The surface is frictionless, a
sammy [17]

Answer:

2.06 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of linear momentum, the sum of momentum before and after collision are equal. Considering this case where we have frictionless surface, no momentum is lost in the process.

Momentum before collision

Momentum is given by p=mv where m and v represent mass. The initial sum of momentum will be 9v+(27*0.5)=9v+13.5

Momentum after collision

The momentum after collision will be given by (9+27)*0.9=32.4

Relating the two then 9v+13.5=32.4

9v=18.5

V=2.055555555555555555555555555555555555555 m/s

Rounded off, v is approximately 2.06 m/s

Since repeated measurements are taken and the average and 95% confidence interval are calculated, the possibility of the lack of agreement being a random error has been minimized or even eliminated.

<h3>What is a random error?</h3>

Random error is defined as the deviation of the total error from its mean value due to chance.

Random errors can result from the instrument not being precise or from mistakes by the researcher.

Random errors can be minimized by taking multiple readings and averaging the results.

Since repeated measurements are taken and the average and 95% confidence interval are calculated, the possibility of the lack of agreement being a ransom error has been minimized.
