Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight–this also gives them an average density significantly less than that

of the bones of other animals. suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone in air and in water and finds its mass is 43.0 g and its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (the bone is watertight).a. what mass of water is displaced? b. what is the volume of the bone? c. what is its average density?

Answer:

39.4 g

39.4 cm³

1.09137 g/cm³

Explanation:

\rho = Density of water = 1 g/cm³

Mass of water displaced will be the difference of the

m=43-3.6\\\Rightarrow m=39.4\ g

Mass of water displaced is 39.4 g

Density is given by

\rho=\dfrac{m}{v}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{m}{\rho}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{39.4}{1}\\\Rightarrow v=39.4\ cm^3

So, volume of bone is 39.4 cm³

Average density of the bird is given by

\rho=\dfrac{43}{39.4}\\\Rightarrow \rho=1.09137\ g/cm^3

The average density is 1.09137 g/cm³

When conduction electrons pass through a device with resistance, which describes their energy?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

a) their potential energy increases.

Explanation:

Ohm's Law is

R= V/I

Where R= Resistance

V= potential difference or potential energy

I= current or conduction electron flow rate

Clearly R and V are directly proportional i-e Potential energy increases with resistance.

As shown in the figure below, Justin walks from the house to his truck on a windy day. He walks 20 m toward
juin [17]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The velocity is   v =0.333 \  m/s in positive x -direction

The speed is s = 0.733 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance from the house to truck is  D =  20 m

  The distance traveled back to retrieve  wind-blown hat is  d =  15

  The distance from the wind-blown hat position too the truck is  k =  20  m

  The total time taken is  t  =  75 s

Generally when calculating the displacement the Justin's backward movement to collect his wind - blown hat is taken as negative

Generally Justin's displacement is mathematically represented as

      L  =  20 - 15 + 20

=>    L  =  25 \ m

Generally the average velocity is mathematically represented as

          v  =  \frac{L}{t}

=>      v = \frac{25}{75}

=>      v =0.333 \  m/s

Generally the distance covered by Justin is mathematically represented as  

         R =  D+ d + k

=>      R =  20 + 15 +20

=>     R =  55 \  m

Generally Justin's average speed over a 75 s period is mathematically represented as

            s = \frac{R}{ t}

=>         s = \frac{55}{ 75}

=>        s = 0.733 \ m/s

Which property of a measurement is best estimated from the percent error? accuracy median precision range
Katena32 [7]

"Accuracy" would be the best option from the list regarding the property of a measurement that is best estimated from the percent error, since the higher the error is the lower the accuracy.


Explanation:

When taking scientific measurements, it's vital to be each correct and precise. Accuracy represents however shut a mensuration involves its true price. This can be vital as a result of unhealthy instrumentality, poor processing or human error will result in inaccurate results that aren't terribly getting ready to the reality.
