Answer:

Generally errors are classified into three types: systematic errors, random errors and blunders. Gross errors are caused by mistake in using instruments or meters, calculating measurement and recording data results.Measurement Error (also called Observational Error) is the difference between a measured quantity and its true value. It includes random error (naturally occurring errors that are to be expected with any experiment) and systematic error (caused by a mis-calibrated instrument that affects all measurements).

Charge Q is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an insulating sphere of radius R = 4.00 cm. At a distance of r = 8.00

Elena L [17]

Answer:

$2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3$

$1979.99974\ N/C$

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = $8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

Q = Charge

r = Distance = 8 cm

R = Radius = 4 cm

Electric field is given by

$E=\dfrac{kQ}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{990\times 0.08^2}{8.99\times 10^{9}}\\\Rightarrow Q=7.04783\times 10^{-10}\ C$

Volume charge density is given by

$\sigma=\dfrac{Q}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=\dfrac{7.04783\times 10^{-10}}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (0.04)^3}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3$

The volume charge density for the sphere is $2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3$

$E=\dfrac{kQr}{R^3}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{8.99\times 10^9\times 7.04783\times 10^{-10}\times 0.02}{0.04^3}\\\Rightarrow E=1979.99974\ N/C$

The magnitude of the electric field is $1979.99974\ N/C$

3 bulbs are in series and the same 3 bulbs are in parallel with the same battery. Which bulbs will be dimmer?

Marina86 [1]

3 bulbs are in series and if the same 3 bulbs are in parallel with the same battery then the bulbs that are connected in parallel will be dimmer

<h3>What is power?</h3>

The rate of doing work is known as power. The Si unit of power is the watt.

Power =work/time

The mathematical expression for the electric power is as follows

P = VI

The same current flows through both bulbs when they are connected in series. A greater voltage drop across the bulb with the higher resistance will result in higher power dissipation and brightness. In the case of the parallel combination, the bulb will be dimmer

Thus, If the same three bulbs are connected in series and parallel with the same battery, the parallelly connected bulbs will be dimmer, therefore the correct option is A

ra1l [238]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given,

initial angular speed, ω = 3,700 rev/min

= $3700\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}=387.27\ rad/s$
