What is the difference between accurate data and reproducible data?

Physics

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.

An electric heater is rated at 1400 W, a toaster is rated at 1150 W, and an electric grill is rated at 1560 W. The three applian
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The current in the heater is 12.5 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power of electric heater, P₁ = 1400 W

Power of toaster, P₂ = 1150 W

Power of electric grill, P₃ = 1560 W

All three appliances are connected in parallel across a 112 V emf source. We need to find the current in the heater. We know that in parallel combination of resistors the current flowing in every branch of resistor divides while the voltage is same.

Electric power, P_1=V\times I_1

I_1=\dfrac{P_1}{V}

I_1=\dfrac{1400\ W}{112\ V}

I_1=12.5\ A

So, the current in the heater is 12.5 A. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the frequency of a pressure wave of wavelength 2.5 m that is traveling at 1400 m/s?
-BARSIC- [3]
The relationship between the speed, the frequency and the wavelength of a wave is given by:
f= \frac{v}{\lambda}
where
f is the frequency
v is the speed of the wave
\lambda is its wavelength

for the pressure wave in this problem, \lambda=2.5 m and v=1400 m/s, therefore its frequency is
f= \frac{v}{\lambda}= \frac{1400 m/s}{2.5 m}=560 Hz

Match each type of wave to the way it moves.
oee [108]

Answer:

Transverse wave- Back and forth at right angles to the direction of the wave arrow.

longitudinal wave- bask and forth in the direction of the motion of the motion of the wave.

electromagnetic wave- two alternating waves moving at right angles to each other.

Explanation:

In a longitudinal wave, the particles vibrate at right angles in reference to the wave motion.

In a transverse wave, the particles vibrate parallel to the wave motion

Electromagnetic waves occur as a result of the interaction between two  waves and are normally transverse in nature.
