Significant

Explanation:

All the digits shown on a measuring device and one estimated digit are all considered to be significant.

A significant digit is a set of values that shows how precise a measurement is reported.

Measuring devices such as calculators gives their values in significant digits.

  • Non- zero digits in a measurement are always significant.
  • Zero's before a decimal are not significant. Those after a number in a decimal are significant.
  • Zero's between digits are significant.

7. A scientist studying a squid observes that the squid at rest
Rzqust [24]

The average force on the squid during the ejection of 0.60 kg of water at a velocity of 15.0 m/s in 0.15 seconds is 60 N.              

We can calculate the average force with the average acceleration as follows:

F = m\overline{a}   (1)

Where:

  • m: is the mass of water = 0.60 kg
  • \overline{a}: is the average acceleration

The <em>average acceleration</em> is given by the change of velocity in an interval of time

\overline{a} = \frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t_{f} - t_{i}}   (2)

Where:

  • v_{i}: is the initial velocity = 0 (the squid is at rest)
  • v_{f}: is the final velocity = 15.0 m/s
  • t_{i}: is the initial time = 0  
  • t_{f}: is the final time = 0.15 s

Now we can find the <em>average force</em> after entering equation (2) into (1)

F = m(\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t_{f} - t_{i}}) = 0.60 kg(\frac{15.0 m/s - 0}{0.15 s}) = 60 N  

Therefore, the average force on the squid during the propulsion is 60 N.

Grain is pouring into a silo to be stored for later use. Due to the friction between pieces of grain as they rub against each ot
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The electric force between them if the pieces of grain are 2 cm apart is 3.15\times 10^{-11}\textrm{ N}.

Explanation:

Given:

Charge on one grain, Q_{1}=6\times 10^{-10}\textrm{ C}

Charge on another grain, Q_{2}=2.3\times 10^{-15}\textrm{ C}

Separation between them, d=2\textrm{ cm}=0.02\textrm{ m}

Electric force acting between two charges Q_{1}\textrm{ and }Q_{2} separated by a distance d is given as:

F_{elec}=\frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2}}{d^2}

Where, k is Coulomb's constant equal to 9\times 10^9\textrm{ }Nm^2/C^2.

Now, plug in all the values and solve for F{elec}.

F{elec}=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 6.0\times 10^{-10}\times 2.3\times 10^{-15}}{(0.02)^2}\\\\F_{elec}=3.15\times 10^{-11}\textrm{ N}

Therefore, the electric force between them if the pieces of grain are 2 cm apart is 3.15\times 10^{-11}\textrm{ N}.

A 3.70 kg block moving 2.09 m/s right hits a 2.42 kg block moving 3.92 m/s left. Find the total momentum of the system.
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

-1.7534 Kg.m/s

Explanation:

Momentum, p is a product of mass and velocity, expressed as p= mv where m is the mass and v is the velocity which is dependent on the direction. Taking left as negative and right as positive then the initial momentum will be

p=-2.42*3.92+(3.7*2.09)=-1.7534 Kg.m/s

12. What is the photoelectric effect, and what experimental evidence led scientists
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Photoelectric effect, phenomenon in which electrically charged particles are released from or within a material when it absorbs electromagnetic radiation.

Explanation:

The effect is often defined as the ejection of electrons from a metal plate when light falls on it. In a broader definition, the radiant energy may be infrared, visible, or ultraviolet light, X-rays, or gamma rays; the material may be a solid, liquid, or gas; and the released particles may be ions (electrically charged atoms or molecules) as well as electrons. The phenomenon was fundamentally significant in the development of modern physics because of the puzzling questions it raised about the nature of light—particle versus wavelike behaviour—that were finally resolved by Albert Einstein in 1905. The effect remains important for research in areas from materials science to astrophysics, as well as forming the basis for a variety of useful devices.
