Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. 

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters 
<span>Thus; 1/2 inch = 1.27 centimeters </span>
<span>Therefore; measuring to the nearest centimeter is more accurate than to the nearest half-inch. 
</span>
I hope the answer will help you. Please feel free to ask more questions. <span />

A truck is hauling a 300-kg log out of a ditch using a winch attached to the back of the truck. Knowing the winch applies a cons
torisob [31]

Answer:

0.1 s

Explanation:

The net force on the log is F - f = ma where F = force due to winch = 2850 N, f = kinetic frictional force = μmg where μ = coefficient of kinetic friction between log and ground = 0.45, m = mass of log = 300 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and a = acceleration of log

So F - f = ma

F - μmg = ma

F/m - μg = a

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = F/m - μg

a = 2850 N/300 kg - 0.45 × 9.8 m/s²

a = 9.5 m/s² - 4.41 m/s²

a = 5.09 m/s²

Since acceleration, a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity of log = 0 m/s (since it was a rest before being pulled out of the ditch), v = final velocity of log = 0.5 m/s and t = time taken for the log to reach a speed of 0.5 m/s.

So, making t subject of the formula, we have

t = (v - u)/a

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

t = (v - u)/a

t = (0.5 m/s - 0 m/s)/5.09 m/s²

t = 0.5 m/s ÷ 5.09 m/s²

t = 0.098 s

t ≅ 0.1 s

Svetlanka [38]

Answer: Cognitive

Explanation:

Cognition can be defined as the process of obtaining the knowledge and learning through the experience, senses and thought. Many psychologists can have similar experiences of learning the psychological framework of the society or at the individual level. Thus this can be said that the cognitive psychologist may have similar interests.
