Answer:

56.8cm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Measured volume = 54.5cm³

Percentage error  = 4.25%

Unknown:

Actual volume of the cylinder = ?

Solution:

The percentage error shows the amount of error introduced into a measurement.

We need to find out this amount of error from the data given.

   Error = Percentage error x measured volume

                       Error = \frac{4.25}{100} x 54.5  = ±2.32cm³

Since the error introduced = 2.32cm³

  Actual volume of cylinder = measured volume ± Error

  Since the percentage error quoted as higher 4.25%;

 Actual volume  = 54.5cm³ + 2.32cm³ = 56.8cm³

Answer:

162.7miles/hr

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance covered by the train  = 813.5miles

Time taken  = 5hours

Unknown:

Speed of the train  = ?

Solution:

Speed is a physical quantity.

It is mathematically expressed as;

      Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

So, input parameters and solve;

   Speed  = \frac{813.5}{5}  = 162.7miles/hr
