your answer will be B . becasue light can be transformed into heat .
Add force to unbalance the forces
Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change) .
Change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)
= zero - (43 m/s)
= -43 m/s .
Magnitude of acceleration = (-43 m/sec) / (0.28 sec)
= (-43 / 0.28) (m/sec) / sec
= 153.57... m/s²
= 1.5... x 10² m/s² .
Well first of all, I think the students may have been correct.
If they didn't use distilled water, and if it wasn't exactly at
standard temperature, then the mass of 25.0 mL could
very well be 25.4 grams. We don't know that there was
any 'error' in their measurement at all.
But the question says there was, so we'll do the math:
The 'error' was (25.4 - 25.0) = +0.4 gram
As a fraction of the 'real' value, the error was
+0.4 / 25.0 = +0.016 .
To change a decimal to a percent, move the
decimal point two places that way ===> .
+ 0.016 = +1.6 % .
Their measurement was 1.6% too high.
Let's not call it an 'error'. Let's just call it a 'discrepancy'
between the measured value and the 'accepted' value. OK ?
