A student took a calibrated 250.0 gram mass, weighed it on a laboratory balance, and found it read 266.5 g. What was the student

Kruka [31]

Answer:

B. 6.6%

Explanation:

The percentage error of a measurement can be calculated using the formula;

Percent error = (experimental value - accepted value / accepted value) × 100

In this question, the calibrated 250.0 gram mass is the accepted value while the weighed mass of 266.5 g is the experimental or measured value.

Hence, the percentage error can be calculated thus;

Percent error = (266.5-250.0/250.0) × 100

Percent error = 16.5/250 × 100

Percent error = 0.066 × 100

Percent error = 6.6%

80N force ;

lutik1710 [3]

The power of the engine is 320 W.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Power may be defined as the rate of doing work (or) work done per unit time. One unit of energy is used to do the one unit of work.

Power = Work done / Time taken

Given, Force = 80 N, height = 5 m , final velocity = 4 m/s

To calculate the power, we must know the time taken.

To find the time, use the distance and speed formula which is given by

Time = Distance / speed

Here distance = 5 m and speed = 4 m/s

Time = 5 / 4 = 1.25 s.

Now, Power = work done / time

= (F * d) / t = (80 * 5) / 1.25

Power = 320 W.

The standard unit of power is watt (W) which is joule per second.

An object, with a final position of x = 100.1 meters, initially started at x = -12.13 meters. What was its displacement? (Unit =

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

112.23 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the final position minus the initial position.

Δx = x − x₀

Δx = 100.1 m − (-12.13 m)

Δx = 112.23 m

To meet a U.S. Postal Service requirement, employees' footwear must have a coefficient of static friction of 0.5 or more on a sp

motikmotik

Answer:

0.79 s

Explanation:

We have to calculate the employee acceleration, in order to know the minimum time. According to Newton's second law:

$\sum F_x:f_{max}=ma_x\\\sum F_y:N-mg=0$

The frictional force is maximum since the employee has to apply a maximum force to spend the minimum time. In y axis the employee's acceleration is zero, so the net force is zero. Recall that $f_{max}=\mu N$

Now, we find the acceleration:

$\mu N=ma_x\\\mu mg=ma_x\\a_x=\mu g\\a_x=0.83(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\a_x=8.134\frac{m}{s^2}$

Finally, using an uniformly accelerated motion formula, we can calculate the minimum time. The employee starts at rest, thus his initial speed is zero:

$x=v_0t+\frac{1}{2}a_xt^2\\2x=a_xt^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2(3.2m)}{8.134\frac{m}{s^2}}}\\t=0.79 s$
