Assume you need to know to what extent it will take you to get from your 
house to some other place. You ask me, and I say, "It will take 5." 
5 what? 5 minutes? 5 hours? 5 days? 
We utilize numbers to speak to stuff on the planet. Some of the time it's simply 
checking, e.g., 
I discovered 9 mushrooms today. 
I discovered 18 yesterday. 
So now I have 9 + 18 = 27 mushrooms. 
Yet, some of the time we're utilizing numbers to speak to things that we measure, 
like separations or weights or ranges: 
I have a board 12 feet long. 
I need to cut it into pieces 3 feet long. 
I can cut it into (12 feet)/(3 feet for each piece) = 4 pieces. 
We can utilize diverse methods for measuring something, e.g., 
I have a board 144 inches in length. 
I need to cut it into pieces 3 feet long. 
In the event that I simply isolate 144 by 3, without focusing on units, I get an 
reply of 48. In any case, what does it mean? It's an indistinguishable issue from 
some time recently, since 144 inches is an indistinguishable thing from 12 feet! So I would do well to 
find a similar solution - 4 pieces, not 48. To find a similar solution, I have 
to change my units: 
I have a board 144 inches in length. 
I need to cut it into pieces 36 inches long. 
I can cut it into (144 inches)/(36 inches per piece) = 4 pieces. 
So units are the means by which we ensure that our figurings about the world

Answer:

Explanation:

When we measure a given physical quantity then after measurement we give the magnitude as well as unit along with the measurement

Here number gives the magnitude of the measurement what we did and unit gives an idea what unit is for the given measurement we used

Here unit is essential while we did any measurement because unit of the measurement may be different for different group of people but the quantity is always same when we compare them along with the unit

For example we know that

1 ft = 12 inch

here the numbers are different in two unit system but the quantity we compared is same.

so it is always essential to put units with all measurement to have complete idea of the quantity that is measured

The current in a hair dryer measures 15 amps. The resistance of the hair dryer is 14 ohms. What is the voltage?
ZanzabumX [31]
We have that there is a formula connecting these three. V=I*R where V is voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. Substituting, we get that V=210 Volta, which is the unit of measurement for voltage. You can think of the relationship in the following way : The energy of the field is equal to the flow of the field times the resistance that it meets.

Determine the kinetic energy of a 10 Kg roller coaster car that is moving with a speed of 2m/s.
skelet666 [1.2K]

In this question all required information's are already provided. Based on these details the answer to the question can be easily determined. Let us now write down all the information's that are already given.

Mass of the roller coaster = 1000 kg

Velocity of the roller coaster = 20.0 m/s

We know the formula for finding the kinetic energy is

Kinetic energy = 0.5 * mass * (velocity) ^2

                      = 0.5 * 1000 * (20)^2

                      = 0.5 * 1000 * 400

                      = 200000 Joules

So the Kinetic energy of the roller coaster is 200000 joules.

i hope this helps you friend good luck on your quiz or lesson

What observations of the martian surface led lowell to the conclusion that intelligent life forms existed on mars?
Alexus [3.1K]

Icecaps that are dissolving, a system of canal-like geometric features, and various pitch black surface markings are all thought to be vegetation are the observations of the martian surface led Lowell to the conclusion that intelligent life forms existed on Mars.

<h3>What is a solar system?</h3>

It is a system that collection of all the planets and spatial bodies revolving around the sun because of the gravitational pull of the sun.

Our Solar System is based on a heliocentric model in which the Sun is assumed to reside at the central point of the planetary system.

In other words, the Sun is at the center while the Earth and other planetary bodies revolve around it.

Lowell came to the conclusion that intelligent life existed on Mars based on his observations of the martian surface, which included melting icecaps, a network of geometric patterns that resemble canals, and numerous markings on the completely black surface that are believed to be flora.
