Which of the following statements are true about measurements and units?

1 answer:

3 0

A. In the SI system, unit prefixes are used to indicate powers of ten --> TRUE
The prefixes are used to indicate powers of ten: examples are kilo (k), which indicates $10^3$ , or mega (M), which indicates $10^6$ .

B. The unit of length in the SI system is the meter --> TRUE
Lengths are measured in meters in the SI system.

C. Measurements must include both numbers and units --> TRUE
Every measurement must include the number and the unit. Example: for a length, we must write L=10.0 m, where 'm' refers to 'meters'.

D. The SI unit system is used only in Asia --> FALSE
The SI system is used in the whole world.

Shay reacts solid zinc and aqueous copper sulfate to form aqueous zinc sulfate and solid copper. If he reacts 10.1 grams of zinc

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Now since mass of reactant is equal to mass of the product after the reaction so we can say that mass conservation is applicable here

Explanation:

As we know that zinc reacts with copper sulfate

so the reaction is given as

$Zn + CuSO_4 --> ZnSO_4 + Cu$

so here we have

$Zn = 10.1 g$

$CuSO_4 = 18.6 g$

$ZnSO_4 = 20 g$

$Cu = 8.7 g$

Now total mass of reactant is given as

$M_1 = 10.1 + 18.6 = 28.7 g$

Mass of the product is given as

$M_2 = 20 + 8.7 = 28.7 g$

Now since mass of reactant is equal to mass of the product after the reaction so we can say that mass conservation is applicable here

A resonant circuit using a 286-nFnF capacitor is to resonate at 18.0 kHzkHz. The air-core inductor is to be a solenoid with clos

lukranit [14]

Answer:

The inductor contains $N = 523962.32$ loops

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The capacitance of the capacitor is $C = 286nF = 286 * 10^{-9} \ F$

The resonance frequency is $f = 18.0 kHz = 18*10^{3} Hz$

The diameter is $d = 1.1 mm = \frac{1.1 }{1000} = 0.00011 \ m$

The of the air-core inductor is $l = 12 \ m$

The permeability of free space is $\mu_o = 4 \pi *10^{-7} \ T \cdot m/A$

Generally the inductance of this air-core inductor is mathematically represented as

$L = \frac{\mu_o * N^2 \pi d^2}{4 l}$

This inductance can also be mathematically represented as

$L = \frac{1}{w^2}$

Where $w$ is the angular speed mathematically given as

$w = 2 \pi f$

$L = \frac{1}{4 \pi ^2 f^2}$

Now equating the both formulas for inductance

$\frac{\mu_o * N^2 \pi d^2}{4 l} = \frac{1}{4 \pi ^2 f^2}$

making N the subject of the formula

$N = \sqrt{\frac{1}{(2 \pi f)^2} * \frac{4 * l }{\mu_o * \pi d^2 C} }$

$N = \frac{1}{2 \pi f} * \frac{2}{d} * \sqrt{\frac{l}{\pi * \mu_o * C} }$

Substituting value

$N = \frac{1}{ 3.142 * 18*10^{3} * 0.00011 } \sqrt{\frac{12}{ 3.142 * 4 \pi *10^{-7}* 286 *10^{-9}} }$

$N = 523962.32$ loops

The true brightness of an object is called its

g100num [7]

The true brightness of an object is called its luminosity. It is the total amount of energy emitted by bright or meteorological objects over a period of time. It has the SI unit of joules per second or watts. So the answer is letter A. Intensity is the measure of how strong the substance or object is when it projects something. Magnitude is a measure of how great is the size the object produces. Viscosity is the measure of flow of a substance.
