Unlike an observational study, an experiment can prove:
Zinaida [17]

A. Cause and effect.

Explanation:

An experiment can prove cause and effect in a study unlike observational studies.

  • Observational studies is a non-experimental system of investigation.
  • It helps to identify the causes(independent variable) and the effect(dependent variables).
  • In observational studies, the variables cannot be controlled and so it is difficult to prove the cause and effect.
  • An experiment can prove cause and effect because the parameters are tested and can be controlled.

The head of a grass string trimmer has 100 g of cord wound in a light, cylindrical spool with inside diameter 3.00 cm and outsid
Karolina [17]

Answer:

a).11.546J

b).2.957kW

Explanation:

Using Inertia and tangential velocity

a).

w=2250*2\pi *\frac{1}{60}\\ w=235.61

I=\frac{1}{2}*m*((\frac{d_{i} }{2})^{2} +(\frac{d_{e} }{2})^{2})\\m=100g *\frac{ikg}{1000g}=0.1kg\\ d_{i}=3cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.03m \\ d_{e}=18cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.18m\\I=\frac{1}{2}*0.1kg*((\frac{0.03m}{2})^{2} +(\frac{0.18m}{2})^{2})\\I=0.41625x10^{-3}kg*m^{2}

Now using Inertia an w

E=\frac{1}{2}*I*(w)^{2} \\ E=\frac{1}{2}*0.416x10^{-3}*(235.61)^{2} \\E=11.54J

average power=\frac{11.4J}{0.230s}=50.2 W

b).

power=t*w

P=11.5465*0.25*235.61

P=2.957 kW
