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%

Jen pushed a box for a distance of 80m with 20 N of force. How much work did she do?
Drupady [299]
The answer is 1,600 J.

A work (W) can be expressed as a product of a force (F) and a distance (d):
W = F · d<span>

We have:
W = ?
F = 20 N = 20 kg*m/s</span>²
d = 80 m
_____
W = 20 kg*m/s² * 80 m
W = 20 * 80 kg*m/s² * m
W = 1600 kg*m²/s²
W = 1600 J

How can humidity be used to predict if it is going to rain?
postnew [5]
1. Humidity cannot be used to predict rain.
2. I'm pretty sure it's weather but I'm not 100% sure. Maybe like 89% sure.

3. Tempurature doesn't affect humidity.

4. Not sure but I think its the 3rd one
