Suppose that the net resistance comes from two resistors in series: R=R1+R2. Assume that you measure each resistor independently

rewona [7]

Answer:

± (.021 ) ohm

Explanation:

In the addition of two physical quantities , the uncertainties are simply added .

So , net uncertainty in the value of R will be

± (.007 +.014)

=± (.021 ) ohm

How long does it take for light to travel from the sun to earth?

Eddi Din [679]

It's about 6 minutes, as I seem to recall. Sort of the time for the earth to go into shadow darkness when there's an eclipse ???

Cole is riding a sled with initial speed of 5 m/s from west to east. the frictional force of 50 n exists due west. the mass of t

stepan [7]

We can calculate the acceleration of Cole due to friction using Newton's second law of motion:
$F=ma$
where $F=-50 N$ is the frictional force (with a negative sign, since the force acts against the direction of motion) and m=100 kg is the mass of Cole and the sled. By rearranging the equation, we find
$a= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{-50 N}{100 kg}=-0.5 m/s^2$

Now we can use the following formula to calculate the distance covered by Cole and the sled before stopping:
$a= \frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}$
where
$v_f=0$ is the final speed of the sled
$v_i=5 m/s$ is the initial speed
$d$ is the distance covered

By rearranging the equation, we find d:
$d= \frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2a}= \frac{-(5 m/s)^2}{2 \cdot (-0.5 m/s^2)}=25 m$

What causes dispersion of light?

AysviL [449]

Dispersion occurs due to the different degrees of refraction experienced by different colours of light. Light of different colours may travel with the same speed in a vacuum, but they travel at different speeds in some refracting medium. The speed of violet light is relatively lower than that of red light.

After observing the electric field in your trials above, where was the electric field the strongest? what was the direction of t

earnstyle [38]

<span>Answer: Answer is The direction of the electric field is always directed in the direction that a positive test charge would be pushed or pulled if placed in the space surrounding the source charge.</span>
