Answer:

The speed of the boat is equal to 13.50 ft/s.

Explanation:

given,

1  nautical mile = 6076 ft

1 knot = 1 nautical mile /hour

1 knot = 6076 ft/hr

speed of boat = 8 knots

 8 knots = 8 nautical mile /hour

               =8 \times \dfrac{6076\ ft}{1\nautical\ mile}\times \dfrac{1\ hour}{60\times 60\ s}

               = 13.50 ft/s

The speed of the boat is equal to 13.50 ft/s.

If two wires run parallel and the current passes through both wires in the same direction, which happens to the wires?
pashok25 [27]

If two wires run parallel and the current passes through both wires in the same direction, which happens to the wires?

If two wires run parallel and the current passes through both wires in the same direction, the wires wires move together because the current of one wire pulls the other wire closer. The answer is letter C.

A hockey puck with a mass of 0.175 kg slides over the ice. The puck initially slides with a speed of 5.25 m/s, but it comes to a
Neko [114]

Answer:

1.70 J

Explanation:

The heat dissipated is the difference in the kinetic energies.

This is given by

E = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

v_i and v_f are the initial and final velocities.

With <em>m</em> = 0.175 kg,

E = \frac{1}{2}\times0.175(2.85^2 - 5.25^2) = -1.701\text{ J}

The negative sign appears because energy is lost.

Why can't we say a measurement tool is accurate?
sashaice [31]

There are various reasons why a measurement tool cannot be accurate. One of them is thermal contraction and expansion varies according to seasons.

<h3>What are Accuracy and Precision?</h3>

There are two ways to assess observational error: accuracy and precision. Precision measures how closely two measurements are to one another, whereas accuracy measures how close a group of measurements is to its actual value. In other words, precision is a measure of statistical variability and a description of random errors.

We can say that a tool can be precise, but it cannot be accurate. There are various reasons behind that, some of them are :

  • It may not be calibrated properly. If there are no reliable standards to use for calibration, this may occur.
  • Perhaps it strayed. This is why electronic scales include a tare function—they are terrible in this area.
  • Perhaps the measurements are not linear. Our calipers might have been quite precise at the 2-inch standard, where they were calibrated, but inaccurate at other dimensions.
  • Temperature is one environmental component that the instrument might be sensitive to. These effects might be compensated for, but the compensation might not be ideal. This issue affects both dissolved solids meters and picometers.

These are some of the reasons due to which measurement tool cannot be accurate.
