The density of an object can be calculated using the formula Density = Mass/Volume.

Experimental Density:

Density = 153.8g / 20.00 cm^3
Density = 7.69g/cm^3

Percent error equation:

% Error = | Theoretical Value - Experimental Value|/Theoretical Value * 100
% Error = | 7.87g/cm^3 - 7.69g/cm^3|/7.87g/cm^3 * 100
% Error = 2.29%

Therefore a is the correct answer.

a car with a mass of 1200 kilograms is moving around a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 20 meters per second. the centrip
qaws [65]
Well, first of all, a car moving around a circular curve is not moving
with uniform velocity.  The direction of motion is part of velocity, and
the direction is constantly changing on a curve.

The centripetal force that keeps an object moving in a circle is

         Force  =  (mass of the object) · (speed)² / (radius of the circle)

         F  =  m s² / r

We want to know the radius, to rearrange the formula to give us
the radius as a function of everything else.

                                          F     =  m s² / r

Multiply each side by 'r':       F· r  =  m · s²

Divide each side by 'F':            r  =  m · s² / F    

We know all the numbers on the right side,
so we can pluggum in:

                      r  =       m       ·        s²      /     F

                      r  =  (1200 kg) · (20 m/s)² / (6000 N) .

I'm pretty sure you can finish it up from here.

What is the momentum of a 950 kg car moving at 10.0 m/s?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 9500 kgm/s</h3>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>momentum = mass × velocity</h3>

From the question

mass = 950 kg

velocity = 10.0 m/s

We have

momentum = 950 × 10

We have the final answer as

<h3>9500 kgm/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

What relationship exists between the amplitude of a wave and amount of disturbance in the water?
guapka [62]
A wave is a result of the disturbance in the equilibrium state.  There are two types of wave, transverse and longitudinal. Transverse wave affects amplitude while longitudinal wave affects the frequency of the wave. As for the transverse wave, the magnitude of the perpendicular disturbance of the wave is directly proportional to the amplitude of the wave. The higher the transverse disturbance the higher the amplitude.
