Answer:

Accuracy is ‘the state of being correct’ and on the other hand precision is ‘the state of being exact.

Explanation:

Accuracy shows the nearness of the measurement with the actual measurement while precision shows the nearness of an individual measurement with other measurements.

Accuracy focuses on the errors caused by the problem in the instrument. while precision is concerned with errors, which occurs periodically with no recognizable pattern.

If the measurement is precise but inaccurate, the result will not be the expected one. And if the result is accurate but imprecise, then there are huge variations in the measurements. And finally, if the actual measurement is neither accurate nor precise, then the result would not have correctness and exactness at the same time.

Accuracy is a general concept while precision is more of a mathematical concept.

Answer:

59.18 kg

Explanation:

use f=ma

f= 580 N

a = 9.8 m/s 2

weigh(m) doesn't change only force(F) changes

Describe the shape of a convex lens and explain what it does to light.

alexira [117]

Convex lenses are thicker at the centers than the edges, they are known as the converging lenses. Rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). When rays of light that are parallel pass through a convex lens they are refracted, the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.

If eight water waves pass an ocean buoy each minute, and successive wave crests are 20 m apart, find the wave speed:____________

Llana [10]

Answer:

The wave speed is calculated below:

Explanation:

Given,

number of waves passed per minute = 8

time period = 1 minute = 60 s

distance between successive wave crests = 20 m

waves passing interval per second = $\frac{8}{60}$ $s^{-1}$

Now,

wave speed = 20 m × $\frac{8}{60}$ $s^{-1}$

= $\frac{8}3}$ m/s

= 2.67 m/s

Hence the wave speed is 2.67 m/s.

What are the genotypes of gametes of a aabb self-pollination??

Rus_ich [418]

All of the possibilities would be aabb. There are no dominant traits to come through from the self pollinating plant so therefore, the offspring would would have the same genotypes.

I apologize for the messy graph in advance. If you have any further questions please let me know
