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

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

Light incident upon a pane of glass slows down in passing through the glass, Does it emerge at a slower speed or at its initial
Simora [160]

Answer:

It will emerge at its initial speed not a slower speed.

Explanation:

It will emerge at the initial speed because the medium at the point of emergence is the same as the medium before incidence.

Light moves at a constant speed in any particular medium. Hence, the speed of light in air is constant in air and the speed of light in glass is constant in glass.

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The heat is 115478.4 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of water = 0.400 kg

Power = 200 W

Suppose, we determine how much heat must be added to the water to raise its temperature from 20.0°C to 89.0°C?

We need to calculate the heat

Using formula of heat

Q=mc\Delta T

Where, m = mass of water

c = specific heat

Put the value into the formula

Q=400\times4.184\times(89-20)

Q=115478.4\ J

Hence, The heat is 115478.4 J.
