A pharmacist attempts to weigh 100 milligrams of codeine sulfate on a balance with a sensitivity requirement of 4 milligrams. Ca

lculate the maximum potential error (nearest hundredth) in terms of percentage (%).
2) A 10-milliliter graduate weighs 42.745 grams. When 6 milliliters of distilled water are measured in it, the combined weight of graduate and water is 48.540 grams. By definition, 6 milliliters of water should weigh 6 grams. Calculate the weight of the measured water and express any deviation from 6 grams as percentage of error (%, to the nearest hundredth).

Answer:

4 %

2 ) 3.42 %

Explanation:

Sensitivity requirement of 4 milligram means it is not sensitive below 4 milligram or can not measure below 4 milligram .

Given , 4 milligram is the maximum error possible .

Measured weight = 100 milligram

So percentage maximum potential error

= (4 / 100)  x 100

4 %

2 )

As per measurement

weight of 6 milliliters of water

= 48.540 - 42.745 = 5.795 gram

6 milliliters of water should measure 6 grams

Deviation = 6 - 5.795 = - 0.205 gram.

Percentage of error =(.205 / 6 )x 100

= 3.42 %

What is the magnitude of the acceleration of a speck of clay on the edge of a potter's wheel turning at 45 rpm (revolutions per
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

a_{cp}=7.77m/s^2

Explanation:

The equation for centripetal acceleration is a_{cp}=\frac{v^2}{r}.

We know the wheel turns at 45 rpm, which means 0.75 revolutions per second (dividing by 60), so our frequency is f=0.75Hz, which is the inverse of the period T.

Our velocity is the relation between the distance traveled and the time taken, so is the relation between the circumference C=2\pi r and the period T, then we have:

v=\frac{C}{T}=2\pi r f

Putting all together:

a_{cp}=\frac{(2\pi r f)^2}{r}=4 \pi^2f^2r=4 \pi^2(0.75Hz)^2(0.35m)=7.77m/s^2

Two equal resistors are connected in series with a 1.50V battery. In order to keep the current at 0.030 A, the resistors much ea
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: 25 Ohms

Explanation:

From this question, the following parameters are given:

Voltage V = 1.5 v

Current I = 0.03A

From Ohm's law;

V = IR

Where R = resultant resistance of the two resistors.

Substitute V and I into the formula and make resultant R the subject of formula.

1.5 = 0.03 × R

R = 1.5/0.03

R = 50 Ohms

From the question, it is given that Thr two equal resistors are connected in series.

R = R1 + R2

But R1 = R2

50 = 2R1

R1 = 50/2

R1 = 25

R1 = R2 = 25 Ohms

Therefore, the resistors must each have a value of 25 Ohms

How does lithium react with cold water?
Tomtit [17]
Lithium metals reacts slowly with water to form a colourless solution of lithiums hydroxide (LiOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). The resulting solution is basic because of the dissolved hydroxide. The reaction is exothermic, but the reaction is slower than that of sodium (immediately below lithium in the periodic table)

Max ran 100 feet in 10 seconds.
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

for max :

100 feet in 10 secs

for molly :

60 feet in 5 secs = 120 feet in 10 secs

so, molly ran farther in the same time interval i.e. covered 120 feet where as Max covered 100 feet
