Explain the difference between the precision and accuracy of an experiment.

Physics
1 answer:
krek1111 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Accuracy is defined as the extent up to which the calculated value is close to the actual value.

Precision is calculated after several experiments, it is the repeatability of the result. It measures the extent up to which the result is close to each other.

Closer the measurement more accurate is the measurement.

Less is the variation from the exact value more is the Precision.

Lorico [155]

Answer:

  a = 0.701 m / s²

Explanation:

As the game is spinning the acceleration is centripetal

           a = v² /r

The park system after a small period of acceleration goes at a constant speed, for which we can use the relations of the uniform motion

           v = d / t

the distance of a circle is

           d = 2π r

we substitute

          a = (2π r / t) ² / r

          a = 4 pi² r / t²

           

let's calculate

          a = 4 pi² 12 / 26²

          a = 0.701 m / s²

Which is true?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

e)  A changing magnetic field produces an electric field.

Explanation:

Ok, we start with a magnetic field and let's study how it affects the motion of a single electron. As the magnetic field changes, it will cause an electromotive force, that moves the electron, and because now we have a moving electron, now we will have an electric field. (Such that the direction of the electromotive force opposes the direction in which the magnetic field changes). This also can be deduced if we look at the third Maxwell's equation:

dE/dx = -dB/dt

This says that the spatial change in an electric field depends on how the magnetic field changes as time pass.

Then the correct option is e)  A changing magnetic field produces an electric field.

A 125 g pendulum bob hung on a string of length 35 cm has the same period as when the bob is hung from a spring and caused to os
Bingel [31]

Answer:

k = 3.5 N/m

Explanation:

It is given that the time period the bob in pendulum is the same as its time period in spring mass system:

Time\ Period\ of\ Pendulum = Time\ Period\ of\ Spring-Mass\ System\\2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}} = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}

\frac{l}{g} = \frac{m}{k}\\\\ k = g\frac{m}{l}

where,

k = spring constant = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m = mass of bob = 125 g = 0.125 kg

l = length of pendulum = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Therefore,

k = (9.81\ m/s^2)(\frac{0.125\ kg}{0.35\ m})\\\\

<u>k = 3.5 N/m</u>
