Various properties of a piece of fabric are recorded during an experiment. The fabric is purple. The length of the fabric is 17.

5 inches. The width of the fabric is 10.0 inches. The fabric is rough to the touch. Which item(s) of information, if any, of the information recorded is/are quantitative data?

Hello
This question invokes the understanding of qualitative and quantitative properties. Qualitative properties usually look to answer "what?" while quantitative properties answer "how much?" and usually involve numbers. Applying this to the question,
We cannot measure how much color the fabric has, or how purple it is. However, we can answer what color it is. Therefore this is qualitative data.
Next, we can measure how long the fabric is; therefore, it is a quantitative property. The same case applies for width of the fabric.
Again, we can not measure how rough the fabric is. We only know that it is rough. Thus, this is also a qualitative property.

Find the voltage drop (in volt) along a 93.4 meter long 10 gauge copper wire carrying acurrent of 72.5 A. The diameter of a 10 g
Sophie [7]

Answer: 5.41 V

Explanation:in order to explain this result we have to use the Ohm law given by:

ΔV=R*I where R is the resistance which is equal R= ρ*L/A . ρ is the resistivity, L the length of the wire and A is the cross section. I is the current.

Then we have

ΔV=ρ*L*I/A= 1.68 * 10^-8 Ωm*93.4 m*72.5A/2.1* 10^-5 m^2=5.41 V

Outside our solar system the closest star to earth is Proxima century life from the start takes 2200000 minutes to reach earth.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

2200000 = 2.2E6 min for light from Proxima to reach earth

8.3 min from light sun to reach earth

2.2E6/8.3 = 2.56E5   times for light from Proxima

Proxima is about 256,000 times farther away than the sun

Since the sun is about 93,000,000 = 9.3E7 miles from earth

Proxima is then 9.3E7 * 2.56E5 = 2.4E13 miles away

Note - the speed of light is

3.00E8 m/s * 60 s/min / 1000 m/km = 1.8E7 km/min as given

You have a string with a mass of 0.0133 kg. You stretch the string with a force of 8.89 N, giving it a length of 1.97 m. Then, y
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

(i) The wavelength is 0.985 m

(ii) The frequency of the wave is 36.84 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the string, m = 0.0133 kg

tensional force on the string, T = 8.89 N

length of the string, L = 1.97 m

Velocity of the wave is:

V = \sqrt{\frac{F_T}{M/L} } \\\\V = \sqrt{\frac{8.89}{0.0133/1.97} } \ = 36.29 \ m/s

(i) The wavelength:

Fourth harmonic of a string with two nodes, the wavelength is given as,

L = 2λ

λ = L/2

λ = 1.97 / 2

λ = 0.985 m

(ii) Frequency of the wave is:

v = fλ

f = v / λ

f = 36.29 / 0.985

f = 36.84 Hz

Why aren’t the Appalachian Mountains still as tall as the Himalayas?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

mountains are limited in their theoretical height by several processes. First is isostasy: the bigger a mountain gets, the more it weighs down its tectonic plate, so it sinks lower. ... Bottom line: mountains can get taller than Mount Everest in earth gravity, like the Appalachians probably did—but not much taller.
