If two measurements are very close to each other, then they are ____.

2 answers:

4 0

I'd say b, precise, here.
If there's an error somewhere in the experiment or project, then it is consistently .... wrong. So, just 'cos you measure something precisely, it doesn't mean that you've measured it accurately. Maybe an example would be a measurement of length. If you used a metal ruler at zero degrees C, you can measure to say half a millimetre. A series of measurements of the same object would give very similar readings. But, if you used same metal ruler at, say 100 celsius (implausible) then you'd probably get a different set of readings. 'cos of the expansion of the metal ruler.

Josh starts his sled at the top of a 2.9-m-high hill that has a constant slope of 25∘. After reaching the bottom, he slides acro

algol13

Answer:

S=48.29 m

Explanation:

Given that the height of the hill h = 2.9 m

Coefficient of kinetic friction between his sled and the snow μ = 0.08

Let u be the speed of the skier at the bottom of the hill.

By applying conservation of energy at the top and bottom of the inclined plane we get.

Potential Energy=kinetic Energy

mgh = (1/2) mu²

u² = 2gh

u²=2(9.81)(2.9)

=56.89

u=7.54 m/s

a = - f / m

a = - μ*m*g / m

a = - μg

From equation of motion

v²- u² = 2 -μ g S

v=0 m/s

-(7.54)²=-2(0.06)(9.81)S

S=48.29 m

Positive electric charge Q is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an insulating sphere with radius R.From the express

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Vb = k Q / r r <R

Vb = k q / R³ (R² - r²) r >R

Explanation:

The electic potential is defined by

ΔV = - ∫ E .ds

We calculate the potential in the line of the electric pipe, therefore the scalar product reduces the algebraic product

VB - VA = - ∫ E dr

Let's substitute every equation they give us and we find out

r> R

Va = - ∫ (k Q / r²) dr

-Va = - k Q (- 1 / r)

We evaluate with it Va = 0 for r = infinity

Vb = k Q / r r <R

We perform the calculation of the power with the expression of the electric field that they give us

Vb = - int (kQ / R3 r) dr

We integrate and evaluate from the starting point r = R to the final point r <R

Vb = ∫kq / R³ r dr

Vb = k q / R³ (R² - r²)

This is the electric field in the whole space, the places of interest are r = 0, r = R and r = infinity
