An experiment that produces waves on a string is analyzed, and the experimental value for the wave speed is found to be 66 m/s.

If the accepted value for the wave speed is 63 m/s, what is the percent error? 0.045% 0.048% 4.5% 4.8%

Answer:

4.8%

Explanation:

percentage error can be calculated as the difference between the theoretical and experimental value divided by the experimental value expressed in percentage.

The percentage error can be  computed mathematically as

(accepted value - experimental value)/accepted value × 100

accepted value = 63 m/s

experimental value = 66 m/s

difference = 63 - 66 = -3 m/s

use the absolute value = 3 m/s

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

percentage error = 3/63 × 100

percentage error = 300/63

percentage error = 4.76%

percentage error = 4.8%

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Cell theory is the scientific theory that states that all living things are composed of cells and that cells are the basic unit of life. The three principles of cell theory are the cell is the smallest unit of life, all cells come from preexisting cells, and cells are the basic unit of function in living things.

If an exit sign is hanging from the ceiling by three chains each of which has a tension of 15N what is the weight of the sign
kvasek [131]
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.

Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)
