The answer to this question is letter C) Each student read the meter stick from different angles.

The students might have been reading the meter stick facing each other. So when one reads the meter stick as 18, the other student will read the reverse image of the measurement. 18 and 82 can be easily mistaken when reversed.

qaws [65]

Answer:

A large piece of charcoal on a grill in the sunlight (if it's burning) will consist of the following types of energy:

  1. Chemical
  2. Heat and
  3. Light

Explanation:

Charcoal is basically carbon which is produced when wood is heated strongly in the absence of oxygen. From a chemistry point of view, charcoal contains combustible carbon whose chemical formula is C. Sometimes, H_{2}O which is water may be found in it but in very small units.

All matter contains Heat energy. Charcoal is not an exception. As the charcoal burns, the heat energy is produced along with Light energy.

Light comes in many forms such as Infrared rays, Xrays, Visible Spectrum light, etc.

The glow which the coal gives off fall under the visible spectrum of light.

A carbon resistor is to be used as a thermometer. On a winter day when the temperature is 4.00°C, the resistance of the carbon r
dusya [7]

Answer:

28 degree C

Explanation:

We are given that

T_1=4.00^{\circ}

R_1=217.7 \Ohm

R_2=215.1\Ohm

\alpha=-5.00\times 10^{-4}C^{-1}

We have to find the temperature on a spring day when resistance is 215.1 ohm.

We know that

\alpha(T_2-T_1)=\frac{R_2}{R_2}-1

Using the formula

-5.00\times 10^{-4}(T_2-4)=\frac{215.1}{217.7}-1

-5\times 10^{-4}(T_2-4)=0.988-1=-0.012

T_2-4=\frac{0.012}{5\times 10^{-4}}=24

T_2=24+4=28^{\circ}C

Hence, the temperature  on a spring day 28 degree C.
