Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 2.7 m/s²

b) -3.6 m/s²

Explanation:

Data

mass of the toolbox = 3.2 kg

a = ?

F = 40 N and F = 20 N

g = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

Second law of motion = F = ma

                              a + g = F / m

                              a = F/m - g

a)                            a = 40/3.2 - 9.81

                              a = 2.69 ≈ 2.7 m/s²   positive up

b)                            a = 20/ 3.2 - 9.81

                              a = 6.25 - 9.81

                                  = - 3.56 ≈ - 3.6 m/s²  negative down

An electric pump rated at 1000W, takes 16 seconds to pump 100 kg of water out to a tank at a height of 10 m. what is the efficie
TEA [102]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Efficiency \ of \ the \ motor = 62.5 \ \%}

Given:

Input Power (\sf P_i)= 1000 W

Mass (m) = 100 kg

Height (h) = 10 m

Time (t) = 16 s

To Find:

Efficiency of the motor

Explanation:

\boxed{ \bold{Output  \: power  \: (P_o)= \frac{mgh}{t}}}

\sf \implies P_o =  \frac{100 \times 10 \times 10}{16}

\sf \implies P_o =  \frac{10000}{16}

\sf \implies P_o =  \frac{ \cancel{16} \times 625}{ \cancel{16}}

\sf \implies P_o = 625 \: W

\boxed{ \bold{Efficiency = \frac{Output \ Power \ (P_o)}{Input \ Power \ (P_i) } \times 100}}

\sf  \implies Efficiency  =  \frac{625}{10 \cancel{00}}  \times  \cancel{100}

\sf  \implies Efficiency  =  \frac{625}{10}

\sf  \implies Efficiency  = 62.5  \: \%

\therefore

Efficiency of the motor = 62.5 %

Sometimes a new experimental result may seem to go against a well-established scientific theory. Which statement BEST describes
MrMuchimi
The best thing to do in this case is to redo the experiment and re record the info, it has to be precise and accurate so you also have to check if your procedure is correct. If the results are both accurate and precise then you have to report your findings to the committee of that specific field. <span />

An independent-measures design is also known as a _______________ design.
lesya692 [45]

An Independent Group/ between-subjects design differs from a within-subjects design in that a between-subjects design. The correct option is B.

<h3>What is independent measure design?</h3>

Studying between subjects (or between groups): As various subjects are used to test each condition, each subject is only exposed to a single user interface. internal topic (or iterative measurement) The same topic evaluates every circumstance (that is, all user interfaces).

Each participant in a topic or intergroup design only encounters one condition, and the group differences between individuals under various conditions are compared. The in-subject design, in which every participant is exposed to every condition, is the antithesis of this.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

B) Amplitudes

Explanation:

The equations of the electric and magnetic fields given are sinusoidal functions. he sine function varies between the value of -1 and 1 when is multiplied by a number A then varies from -A to A. In this case the variation goes from -E0 to E for the electric field and from -B0 to B0 for the magnetic field.  Because the amplitude is half of the distance between the highest and the lowest value of the sinusoidal function. In the electric field is: E0-(-E0)/2=E0 and in the magnetic field B0-(-B0)/2=B0.
