Why is it important for scientists to use similar units?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: units are interrelated in such a way that one unit is derived from other units without conversion factors. ... SI is used in most places around the world, so our use of it allows scientists from disparate regions to use a single standard in communicating scientific data without vocabulary confusion.

Two coils have the same number of circular turns and carry the same current. Each rotates in a magnetic field acting perpendicul

ANEK [815]

Answer:

4.14 cm.

Explanation:

Given,

For Coil 1

radius of coil, r₁ = 5.6 cm

Magnetic field, B₁ = 0.24 T

For Coil 2

radius of coil, r₂ = ?

Magnetic field, B₂ = 0.44 T

Using formula of maximum torque

$\tau_{max}= NIAB$

Since both the coil experience same maximum torques

now,

$NIA_1B_1 = NIA_2B_2$

$A_1B_1 = A_2B_2$

$r_1^2 B_1 = r_2^2 B_2$

$5.6^2\times 0.24= r_2^2\times 0.44$

$r_2 = 4.14\ cm$

Radius of the coil 2 is equal to 4.14 cm.

A bullet with mass 0.04000 kg, traveling at a speed of 310.0 m/s, strikes a stationary block of wood having mass 6.960 kg. The b

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

1.77 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m')............................ Equation 1

Where m = mass of the bullet, m' = mass of the block, u = initial velocity of the bullet, u' = initial velocity of the block, V = Velocity of the bullet-wood combination immediately after collision

make V the subject of the equation

V = (mu+m'u')/(m+m').................. Equation 2

Given: m = 0.04 kg, m' = 6.96 kg, u = 310 m/s, u' = 0 m/s (stationary)

Substitute into equation 2

V = (0.04×310+6.96×0)/(0.04+6.96)

V = 12.4/7

V = 1.77 m/s

Hence the speed, in m/s, of the bullet-plus-wood combination immediately after the collision is 1.77 m/s

What is his angular displacement during a 1.0 s time interval?

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

The angular velocity is: (2π radians) ⁄ (4.3 sec) = 1.461 rad/sec

The angular displacement is: (1.461 rad/sec)(1 sec) = 1.461 radians

Why do we use other bonding theories in addition to the lewis model?

Setler [38]

Full Question:

Why do we use other bonding theories in addition to the lewis model?

a) Lewis model is not suitable for all molecules or ions. b) Lewis model cannot predict all of the properties of a molecule or ion. c) Lewis model is too complicated.

Answer:

b) Lewis model cannot predict all of the properties of a molecule or ion.

Explanation:

Lewis structures, also called electron-dot structures or electron-dot diagrams, are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.

Lweis model does not explain the geometry of molecules, how the bonds form, or how the electrons are shared between the atoms hence the need to use other bonding theories.
