Answer: option B

Explanation: The sampling error also known as the marginal error is given mathematically as

Margin of error = critical value × (standard deviation/√n)

Where n = sample size

As we can see from this formulae, the only variable here is the margin of error and the sample size.

Hence margin of error = k/√n

Which implies that there is an inverse relationship between margin of error and sample size.

A large sample size gives a low margin of error while a small sample size gives a large margin of error.

Why you do scientists collect multiple trials?

sergiy2304 [10]

"When we do experiments it's a good idea to do multiple trials, that is, do the same experiment lots of times. When we do multiple trials of the same experiment, we can make sure that our results are consistent and not altered by random events. Multiple trials can be done at one time."

Answer:

d = 4 d₀o

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using the relationship between work and the variation of kinetic energy

W = ΔK

In that case as the car stops v_f = 0

the work is

W = -fr d

we substitute

- fr d₀ = 0 - ½ m v₀²

d₀ = ½ m v₀² / fr

now they indicate that the vehicle is coming at twice the speed

v = 2 v₀

using the same expressions we find

d = ½ m (2v₀)² / fr

d = 4 (½ m v₀² / fr)

d = 4 d₀o

Newton’s second law of motion addresses the relationship between what two variables that influence the force on a body?

Helen [10]

Answer:

A. Mass and acceleration

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum
Therefore; F = ma , where F is the resultant force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration of the body.
Resultant force depends on the acceleration and the mass of a body in motion, an increase in acceleration causes a corresponding increase in resultant force. A body with higher mass will have a larger strong force if the acceleration is kept constant.

If the car has a mass of 0.4 kg, the ratio of height to width of the ramp is 19/85, the initial displacement is 1.9 m, and the c

Rasek [7]

Answer:

final displacement lf = 0.39 m

Explanation:

from change in momentum equation:

$\delta p = m \sqrt(2g * y/x)* [\sqrt li + \sqrt lf]$

given: m = 0.4kg, y/x = 19/85, li = 1.9 m,

\delta p = 1.27 kg*m/s.

putting all value to get the final displacement value

$1.27 = 0.4\sqrt(2*9.81 *(19/85))* [\sqrt 1.9 + \sqrt lf]$

final displacement lf = 0.39 m

What is the direction of the field halfway between two horizontal parallel wires if the top wire has a current of 4 A to the lef

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

A) Out of the page.

Explanation:

Right-hand rule points the direction of the magnetic field at any point.

Top wire: Current is to the left. Point your thumb to the left and curl your other fingers around the wire. The tips of the four fingers points the direction of the field at that point. In this case, out of the page.

Bottom wire: Current is to the right. Point your thumb to the right and curl your other fingers around the wire. The tips of the four finger points out of the page again.

So, the total field produced by both wires is directed out of the page.

Another method to figure out the direction is the mathematical method.

Use the B-field formula:

$d\vec{B} = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\frac{Id\vec{l}\times \^r}{r^2}$

The cross product between the direction of the current and the target position gives the direction of the B-field. If the left is -x direction and downwards is the -y direction, then

$(-\^x) \times (-\^y) = +\^z$ for the top wire.

$(+\^x) \times (+\^y) = +\^z$ for the bottom wire.
