Answer:

2.63 %.

Explanation:

Given that,

The calculated value of the specific heat of water is 4.29 J/g.C

Original value of  specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g.C.

We need to find the student's percent error. The percentage error in any quantity is given by :

P=\dfrac{|\text{original value-calculated value}|}{\text{original value}}\times 100\\\\P=\dfrac{4.29-4.18}{4.18}\times 100\\\\P=2.63\%

So, the student's percent error is 2.63 %.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer: 71 J

Explanation: The formula for gravitational potential energy is Epg= mgh.

So you plug in 2.2 as m, 3.3 as h and 9.81 as g. Once you do that you should get an answer of 71.2206. But because there are only two significant digits in the question, your answer must also have two significant digits.

A car has a mass of 1200 kg. A man can comfortably push down with a force of 400 N. If the small piston in a hydraulic jack has
kotegsom [21]
A) F1/A1=F2/A2
F2 = 12000 Newtons, while F1 = 400 Newtons and area A1= 6 cm²
400/6 = 12000/A2
A2 = (6 × 12000)/400
     =  180 cm²
 
b) How long does this lift the car
 d2 =F1/F2×d1
      = (400/12000)× 20
       = (1/30)×20
       = 20/30
       = 0.67 cm
This lifts the car a distance of 0.67 cm
