Suppose that the net resistance comes from two resistors in series: R=R1+R2. Assume that you measure each resistor independently

, multiple times in multiple ways, obtaining these mean values and uncertainties: R1={1.234+/-0.007} Ohms and R2={3.142+/-0.014} Ohms. The mean value of the net resistance is (of course): R=4.376 Ohms. Calculate the net uncertainty in this value of R (also in Ohms).

Answer:

± (.021 ) ohm

Explanation:

In the addition of two physical quantities , the uncertainties are simply added .

So , net uncertainty in the value of R will be

± (.007 +.014)

=± (.021 ) ohm

Answer:

\Delta R=0.021\ \Omega

Explanation:

Given:

The resistances in series:

  • R_1=1.234\pm 0.007\ \Omega
  • R_2=3.142\pm0.014\ \Omega
  • Mean value of net resistance, R_m=4.376\ \Omega

<u>We know that the resultant of the resistances in series is given as:</u>

R=R_1+R_2

<em>For the maximum possible deviation in the values being added we take the limits only on one side of the mean values for all the parameters.</em>

R=(1.234+0.007)+(3.142+0.014)\\R=(4.376+0.021)\ \Omega

Therefore the net uncertainty in the value:

\Delta R=0.021\ \Omega

Which of the following is NOT a example
solmaris [256]

Answer:

B. a piece of paper being torn

Explanation:

A chemical change is one that cannot be reversed. This means the original properties of the substance or object cannot be restored.

If you cook a raw egg, it would turn into a boiled egg (or a poached egg, however it is being cooked). The reaction is irreversible, so you cannot turn the cooked egg back into a raw egg - it is basically impossible to 'uncook' an already cooked egg.

When you toast a piece of bread, it turns into toast. You can't 'untoast' it back into bread. The chemical changes have already occurred and cannot be undone.

If you tear a piece of paper, it is still paper. You are only ripping it, not changing anything about it. You could simply tape the torn bit back to the original bit, or glue it - either way, it is still paper and nothing has occurred to drastically change the physical state of it.

Therefore, B is not a chemical change.

Sarah's mother gets a flat tire on her car while driving Sarah to school. They use a jack to change the tire. It exerts a force
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1250 J

Explanation:

Work is said to be done when a force causes an object to move over a distance. The amount of work done (W) is calculated by multiplying the force by the distance traveled.

That is;

W = F × d

Where;

W = work done (J or N/m)

F = force (N)

d = distance (m)

Based on the information provided in this question, F = 5000N, d = 0.25m

Hence;

W = F × d

W = 5000 × 0.25

W = 1250J

Therefore, 1250Joules of work is done by the jack.

One drawback of dams is that they can flood land upstream from the dam and reduce water flow downstream from the dam. Question 2
vivado [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

It can cause flooding and destruction of habitat because of dammed rivers create large reservoirs upstream which can spill out to the surrounding during heavy rainfall causing flooding and destruction of natural habitat.
