Answer:

a)   x_average = ∑ x_{i} / n , b) Δx_{i} = x_{i} –x_average,

d) σ = √(1/n-1  ∑ Dx_{i}² )

Explanation:

Some definitions are requested

a) the average value is the sum of all the values ​​divided by the number of them, if the uncertainties are random, this is the closest value to the real one

       x_average = ∑ x_{i} / n

b) The deviation from the mean value or absolute error is the measured value minus the average value

       Δx_{i} = x_{i} –x_average

c) is the average value of the deviations

        Δx_average = ∑ Δx_{i} / n

d) It is a measure of the dispersion of the values ​​with respect to their average value, it takes the worst of all cases, widely used for large numbers of data

          σ = √(1/n-1  ∑ Dx_{i}² )

Experimental results should be given as follows

  Average value ± uncertainty and the standard deviation

  (x_average + - Δx_average)

  σ

An ant crawls 50 cm to the right, stops, and then crawls 30 cm to the left. Calculate the distance that the ant travels, and cal
borishaifa [10]

Answer and Explanation:

If the ant was to crawl 50cm to the right, then come back 30 cm, then the total distance walked would be <u>80cm</u>.

- Combine 50cm and 30cm to get 80 cm.

For displacement, the answer is <u>20 cm.</u>

- When calculating displacement, you use the initial (starting) distance. and subtract that from the final distance, giving you the displacement, or the amount traveled from the starting point to the final point if you were to make a straight line from the starting point to end point. (0 to 50, then back 30 the same direction, so subtract 30 from 50 to get 20)

The diameter of an atom is 1.1×10−10m and the diameter of its nucleus is 1.0×10−14m. Part A What percent of the atom's volume is
77julia77 [94]

To solve this problem we will use the basic concept given by the Volume of a sphere with which the atom approaches. The fraction in percentage terms would be given by the division of the total volume of the nucleus by that of the volume of the atom, that is,

\% Percent = \frac{V_{nucleus}}{V_{atom}}*100

\% Percent = \frac{4/3 \pi (d_{nucleus}/2)^3}{4/3 \pi (d_{atom}/2)^3}*100

\% Percent = \frac{(d_{nucleus}/2)^3}{ (d_{atom}/2)^3}*100

\% Percent =\frac{(1.0*10^{-14}/2)^3}{ (1.1*10^{-10}/2)^3}*100

\% Percent = 7.51*10^{-13}*100

\% Percent = 7.51*10^{-11}\%

Therefore the percent of the atom's volume is occupied by mass is 7.51*10^{-11}\%
