Two cars A and B are 100m apart moving towards each other with

Physics
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
3 0

Let car A's starting position be the origin, so that its position at time <em>t</em> is

A: <em>x</em> = (40 m/s) <em>t</em>

and car B has position at time <em>t</em> of

B: <em>x</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

<em />

They meet when their positions are equal:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m

<em>t</em> = (100 m) / (100 m/s) = 1 s

so the cars meet 1 second after they start moving.

They are 100 m apart when the difference in their positions is equal to 100 m:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> - (100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>) = 100 m

(subtract car B's position from car A's position because we take car A's direction to be positive)

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 200 m

<em>t</em> = (200 m) / (100 m/s) = 2 s

so the cars are 100 m apart after 2 seconds.

Acetone is a flammable solvent used in the making of plastics. The density is 790kg/m3. to convert 790kg/m3 to g/cm3​
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: 0.790 g/cm3

Explanation:

The density of acetone is 790 Kg/m3.

To convert from Kg to g we multiply by 1000 (1 Kg = 1000 g)

To convert from m3 to cm3 we multiply by 10∧6

So, The density of acetone in (g/cm3) = (790 x 1000) / (10∧6) = 0.79 g/cm3

Difference between reproducibility and replicability
victus00 [196]
Suppose you are doing an experiment where you determine the value of one parameter, say density of a liquid. You have two methods in doing this. By finding the mass and volume, and by using a densitometer. Reproducibility is when you get the same value of density for both methods. Replicability is when you have similar results in one method. So, replicability is a measure of precision, while reproducibility is a measure of accuracy.
