"There are two types of error that can occur when making measurements: systematic and random error. How you correct the error de

pends on the type(s) of error present."

Murljashka [212]3 years ago

Answer:

Systematic error can be corrected using calibration of the measurement instrument, while random error can be corrected using an average measurement from a set of measurements.

Explanation:

Random errors lead to fluctuations around the true value as a result of difficulty taking measurements, whereas systematic errors lead to predictable and consistent departures from the true value due to problems with the calibration of your equipment.

Systematic error can be corrected, by calibration of the measurement instrument. Calibration is simply a procedure where the result of measurement recorded by an instrument is compared with the measurement result of a standard value.

Random error can be corrected using an average measurement from a set of measurements or by Increasing sample size.

Write a hypothesis about the use of an object's physical
KengaRu [80]

If the mass of the object and the volume of the object is determined;

Then, the density of the object is determined by taking the ratio of the mass and volume.

<h3>What is density of an object?</h3>

The density of an object is the ratio of the mass and volume of that object.

Mathematically;

  • Density = mass/volume

To determine the density of an object therefore, the physical characteristics of mass and the volume of the object are measured.

The mass of the object is obtained using a scale or a balance.

The volume of the object if a solid is obtained using a displacement bottle. If it is a liquid, a measuring cylinder is used.

The density of the object is then obtained by taking the ratio of the mass and the volume of the object.

In conclusion, the density of an object is determined from the volume and mass ratio.

Water of density 1000 kg/m3 falls without splashing at a rate of 0.373 L/s from a height of 40.5 m into a 0.64 kg bucket on a sc
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

       F_scale = 20.18 N

Explanation:

The scale reading corresponds to two factors, the first the weight of the water in the container and the second the force of the liquid that is falling at the moment of reading.

* Let's find the amount of liquid in the container for a time of t = 2.93 s

Let's use a direct proportion rule. If 0.373 l falls in one second at t = 2.93 s, how many liters are there

        V_{water} = 2.93 s (0.373 l / 1s) = 1.09 l

        V_{water} = 1.09 10⁻³ m³

the amount of water is

       ρ = m / V

       m = ρ V

       m = 1000 1.09 10⁻³

       m = 1.09 kg

so the weight of the liquid in the container for this time is

       W = mg

       W = 1.09 9.8

       W = 10.68 N

* Let's look for the force of the falling jet

Let's use Bernoulli's equation, where the subscript 1 is for the container and the subscript 2 is for the water at a height h

        P₁ + 1/2 ρ g v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + 1/2  ρ g v₂² + ρ g y₂

In this case, the water falls freely, so the external pressure is atmospheric.

         P₂ = P_{atm}

since they indicate that the water falls, we assume that its initial velocity is zero v₂ = 0

let's use kinematics to find the speed of a drop when it reaches the container y = 0

         v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

         v = \sqrt{0 -2 g ( 0-y_o)}

let's calculate

         v = √(2 9.8 40.5)

         v = 28.17 m / s

this is the speed in the container v₁ = 28.17 m / s

the height from where it falls is y₂ = 40.5 and reaches the container y₁ = 0

we substitute in Bernoulli's equation

         P₁ +1/2 ρ g v₁² + 0 = P_{atm} + 0 + ρ g y₂

         P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² = P_{atm} + ρ g y₂

         P₁ = P_{atm} + ρ g y₂ - ½ ρ g v₁²

         P₁ = 1 10⁵ + 1000 9.8 40.5 - ½ 1000 28.17²

         P₁ = 1 10⁵ + 3.97 10⁵ - 3.69 10⁵

         P₁ = 1.28 10⁵ Pa

The definition of Pressure is

         P = F / A

         F = P A

We must suppose a time to carry out the reading suppose an average time of the modern equipment t = 0.1 s, in this time how much is now arriving

          m₂ = 0.373 0.2 = 0.0746 l = 0.0746 10⁻³ m³

the volume is V = A l

if the length of l = 1 m

A = 0.0746 10⁻³ m³ = 7.45 10⁻⁵ m²

the force of this jet is

            F = P A

            F = 1.28 10⁵  7.46 10⁻⁵

            F = 9.5 N

with these data let's use the equilibrium equation

           F_ scale -W - F = 0

           F_scale = W + F

           F_scale = 10.682 + 9.5

           F_scale = 20.18 N

A 2.74 g coin, which has zero potential energy at the surface, is dropped into a 12.2 m well. After the coin comes to a stop in
VikaD [51]

Answer:

B. - 0.328

Explanation

Potential Energy:<em> This is the energy of a body due to position.</em>

<em>The S.I unit of potential energy is Joules (J).</em>

<em>It can be expressed mathematically as</em>

<em>Ep = mgh........................... Equation 1</em>

<em>Where Ep = potential energy, m = mass of the coin, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity,</em>

<em>Given: m = 2.74 g = 0.00274 kg, h = 12.2 m, g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

Substituting these values into equation 1

Ep = 0.00274×12.2×9.8

Ep = 0.328 J.

Note: Since the potential energy at the surface is zero, the potential Energy with respect to the surface = -0.328 J

The right option is B. - 0.328
