What is the defining feature of a system?

1 answer:

3 0

A system is a regularly interacting or interdependent group of units forming an integrated whole. Every system is delineated by its spatial and temporal boundaries, surrounded and influenced by its environment, described by its structure and purpose and expressed in its functioning

A machinist with normal vision has a near point at 25 cm. The machinist wears eyeglasses in order to do close work. The power of

Alik [6]

Answer:

17.4 cm

Explanation:

Power of lens = +1.75 diopters

Focal length of lens

$f=\frac{100}{1.75}=\frac{400}{7}$

This is a convex lens as focal the diopter given is positive which makes the focal length positive. Image distance will be negative.

v = -25

$\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{-25}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{\frac{400}{7}}\\\Rightarrow -\frac{1}{u}=\frac{7}{400}+\frac{1}{25}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=-\frac{7}{400}-\frac{1}{25}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=-0.0575\\\Rightarrow u=-17.4\ cm$

∴ The new near point is 17.4 cm

15 Points , Physics HW, can someone please show me step by step how to calculate percent difference for this problem. My numbers

timofeeve [1]

The percent difference between two numbers $x$ and $y$ is given by

$\dfrac{|y-x|}x \times 100\%$

The absolute value is there because we only care about the absolute percent difference, and not taking into account whether we go from $x$ to $y$ or vice versa. If we remove them, we have two possible interpretations of percent difference.

For example, the (absolute) percent difference between 3 and 6 is

$\dfrac{|6-3|}3 \times 100\% = 100\%$

In other words, we add 100% of 3 to 3 to end up with 6. This is the same as the percent difference going from 3 to 6. On the other hand, the percent difference going from 6 to 3 is

$\dfrac{3-6}3\times100\%=-50\%$

which is to say, we take away 50% of 6 away from 6 to end up with 3.

"Make comparisons to object measurements" tells us that the differences should be computed relative to "measurements for object". In other words, take $x$ from the left column and $y$ from the right column.

$\dfrac{|7.1-7.3|}{7.1} \times 100\% \approx 2.82\%$

$\dfrac{|4.8-5.0|}{4.8} \times 100\% \approx 4.17\%$

$\dfrac{|7.2-7.5|}{7.2} \times 100\% \approx 4.17\%$

Rhythms that occur faster and slower than the beat are. Select one:. a. incorrect. b. not synchronized with the time signature.

zlopas [31]

Rhythms that occur faster and slower than the beat are b.not synchronized with the time signature. The synchronization follows the same beat or rhythm. If the time signature say is lower than the original, then the rhythm should be faster. Otherwise, the rhythm is slower than the original one.

Briefly describe the three intelligences included in Robert Sternberg’s triarchic theory of human intelligence.

pshichka [43]

The triarchic theory of intelligence was formulated by Robert J. Sternberg, a prominent figure in research of human intelligence. The theory by itself was among the first to go against the psychometric approach to intelligence and take a more cognitive approach. The three meta components are also called triarchic components. These are the triarchic theory of human intelligence.
1. Analytical - Analytical Intelligence similar to the standard psychometric definition of intelligence e.g. as measured by Academic problem solving: analogies and puzzles, and corresponds to his earlier componential intelligence. Sternberg considers this reflects how an individual relates to his internal world.

Sternberg believes that Analytical Intelligence (Academic problem-solving skills) is based on the joint operations of metacomponents and performance components and knowledge acquisition components of intelligence

2. Practical - Practical Intelligence: this involves the ability to grasp, understand and deal with everyday tasks. This is the Contextual aspect of intelligence and reflects how the individual relates to the external world about him or her.

Sternberg states that Intelligence is: "Purposive adaptation to, shaping of, and selection of real-world environments relevant to one's life" (Sternberg, 1984, p.271)

3. Creative - Creative Intelligence: this involves insights, synthesis and the ability to react to novel situations and stimuli. This he considers the Experiential aspect of intelligence and reflects how an individual connects the internal world to external reality.

Sternberg considers the Creative facet to consist of the ability which allows people to think creatively and that which allows people to adjust creatively and effectively to new situations.

Sternberg believes that more intelligent individuals will also move from consciously learning in a novel situation to automating the new learning so that they can attend to other tasks.

Before designing the filter, one must understand the relationship between the output voltage of the circuit and the frequency. F

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Option b. is correct

Explanation:

An RLC electrical circuit consists of constituent components: a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C). A resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor are connected in series or parallel.

The impedances of the circuit elements depend on the frequency.

Both impedance magnitudes decrease when the frequency increases
