The formula for potential energy is
E(p) = mgh
(Mass x gravity x height)
Therefore energy = (5.3)(9.8)(6.6)
= 342.8 J
How did I get 9.8?
9.8 is the constant for gravity
Answer : The correct option is, (b) Thermometer B, because it measures temperature more accurately than A.
Explanation :
Accuracy : It is defined as the closeness of a measured value to a standard or known value.
For Example: If the mass of a substance is 50 kg and one person weighed 48 kg and another person weighed 55 kg. Then, the weight measured by first person is more accurate.
Precision : It is defined as the closeness of two or more measurements to each other.
For Example: If you weigh a given substance five times and you get 1.8 kg each time. Then the measurement is said to be precise.
Level of precision is determined by the maximum number of decimal places.
As per question, the thermometer B has markings 40°, 45° and 50° at equal intervals and there are four small markings equally spaced in between the numbers and thermometer B has markings 40°, 45° and 50° at equal intervals but there is no small markings equally spaced in between the numbers. That means, thermometer B is measures temperature more accurately than thermometer A.
Hence, correct option is, (b) Thermometer B, because it measures temperature more accurately than A.
Answer:
Risk rejection
Explanation:
There are several factors that contribute to the degree of driving risks and they include but not limited to the ability of the driver and the condition of a vehicle. Other factors are condition of the environment and the condition of the highway. When driving, a driver may wait until an oncoming vehicle passes before making a complete left turn as a risk rejection strategy. Left turns are more dangerous when making them because drivers tend to accelerate on to a left turn. The wider radius of a left turn is know to led to higher speeds and greater pedestrian exposure. A driver is advised to have more mental and physical efforts when making a left turn.
Answer:
2400 J
Explanation:
Latent heat: This is also called hidden heat, it is the heat that is not detectable by the thermometer.
From the question,
Q = cm.................. Equation 1
Where Q = Energy, c = specific latent heat of the liquid, m = mass of the liquid.
Given: c = 4000 J/kg, m = 600 g =( 600/1000) kg = 0.6 kg
Substitute these values into equation 1
Q = 4000×0.6
Q = 2400 J
Hence the energy required is 2400 J
⬆️ I think it’s the one that goes up ( sorry if it’s wrong )
