Four students measure the mass of a standard mass that has an accepted value of 150.0 g. They post their results in a table.

Physics

Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

This problem seeks to ensure that the student comprehends the meaning of precision and accuracy.

These two key terms are used to express how reliable experimental values obtained are.

  • Precision is the ability to consistently reproduce a result.
  • Accuracy is the nearness of the measure value to the true value.
  • The different between the measured and true values gives the error in the result.

In the problem given, the most accurate reading would be one that has value close to the standard mass of 150g. Any student that reports this value would be reported as accurate.

The precise reading would be for the student that is able to repeatedly produce the same kind of values. This is irrespective of whether the values are close to the true value or not.

F1 = G * m*m / [2r]  ^2 = G * m^2 / 4r^2

Given the the mass is proportional to the volume and the volume is proportional to r^3, the mass of each big sphere is  3^3 = 27 times the mass of the small spheres. And the distance between the centers is 3r + 3r = 6r

F2 = G * [27m * 27m]/* [6r]^2 = G* 27^2 m^2 / 36r^2 = 81 G*m^2 / 4r^2 = 81*F1

Therefore, F2 = 81F1

Answer: option D) 81F1.

A machine produces 4,000 J of work in 5 seconds. how much power does the machine produce.
ad-work [718]

Explanation:

Power is defined as the work done per unit time or

P = \dfrac{\Delta W}{\Delta t}

\;\;\;\;= \dfrac{4000\:\text{J}}{5\:\text{s}} = 800\:\text{Watts}

I am Lyosha [343]

The steps in the heating of a metal seat in a park are:

Step 1: Heat travels from the sun to Earth

Step 2: Heat travels through atmosphere to the top of the seat

Step 3: Heat from the top of the seat travels through the seat to the lower parts of the seat.

-- Heat is transferred by radiation in Step 1 and Step 2. <em>(B)</em>

-- From the top of the seat to the bottom, heat is transferred by conduction.  

There's no convection happening anywhere in the park-hot-seat scenario.
