Imagine you came to the lab and found a resistor with color code Blue, Red, Brown, Gold. What is the resistance of this resistor

(with uncertainty). (HINT: Uncertainties should have only one significant digit and should always be rounded up)

Answer:

R = 620.0 Ω +/- 5%

Explanation:

According to the standard color coding for carbon resistors, the first color represents the first digit, the second the second digit, the third is the multiplier factor (10*x), and the fourth (if existing) defines the tolerance.

In our case, we have:

Blue = 1st digit = 6

Red = 2nd digit = 2

Brown = Multiplier = 10*1 = 10

Gold = Tolerance = +/- 5%

⇒ R = 62*10 = 620.0 Ω

Tolerance = +/- 5%

A father racing his son has 1/3 the kinetic energy of the son, who has 1/4 the mass of the father. The father speeds up by 1.5 m
Feliz [49]

Explanation:

Let the speeds of father and son are v_f\ and\ v_s. The kinetic energies of father and son are K_f\ and\ K_s. The mass of father and son are  m_f\ and\ m_s

(a) According to given conditions, K_f=\dfrac{1}{3}K_s

And m_s=\dfrac{1}{4}m_f

Kinetic energy of father is given by :

K_f=\dfrac{1}{2}m_fv_f^2.............(1)

Kinetic energy of son is given by :

K_s=\dfrac{1}{2}m_sv_s^2...........(2)

From equation (1), (2) we get :

\dfrac{v_f^2}{v_s^2}=\dfrac{1}{12}..............(3)

If the speed of father is speed up by 1.5 m/s, so the ratio of kinetic energies is given by :

\dfrac{K_f}{K_s}=\dfrac{1/2m_f(v_f+1.5)^2}{1/2m_sv_s^2}

v_s^2=4(v_f+1.5)^2

Using equation (3) in above equation, we get :

v_f=\dfrac{1.5}{\sqrt3-1}=2.04\ m/s

(b) Put the value of v_f in equation (3) as :

v_s=7.09\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which formation is one feature of karst topography?
steposvetlana [31]
Karst is a topography formed from the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. It is characterized by underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves. It has also been documented for more weathering- resistant rocks, such as quartzite, given the right conditions.

A high-jump athlete leaves the ground, lifting her center of mass 1.8 m and crossing the bar with a horizontal velocity of 1.4 m
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The minimum speed when she leave the ground is 6.10 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal velocity = 1.4 m/s

Height = 1.8 m

We need to calculate the minimum speed must she leave the ground

Using conservation of energy

K.E+P.E=P.E+K.E

\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+0=mgh+\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=gh+\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{2}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=9.8\times1.8+\dfrac{(1.4)^2}{2}

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=18.62

v_{1}=\sqrt{2\times18.62}

v_{1}=6.10\ m/s

Hence, The minimum speed when she leave the ground is 6.10 m/s.

Explain at least three ways trees assist in keeping high water quality?
swat32
<span>Tree's are vital to the eco-system, they clean the air of co2 which is important for the air and water. Tree's also stop erosion and that is an important step in keeping our water clean. Tree's filter water up through the soil with their extensive root system, making for clean water.</span>
