It is a seismic wave that effects the surface of the land by causing it to rise and fall like waves in an ocean. Seismic waves can be broken down into a number of different types. Specifically, it is a Raleigh surface wave that behaves much like water waves since it moves the ground up and down as it travels. Seismic waves are produced in earthquakes.

Answer:

  (D)  4

Explanation:

The percentage error in each of the contributors to the calculation is 1%. The maximum error in the calculation is approximately the sum of the errors of each contributor, multiplied by the number of times it is a factor in the calculation.

  density = mass/volume

  density = mass/(π(radius^2)(length))

So, mass and length are each a factor once, and radius is a factor twice. Then the total percentage error is approximately 1% +1% +2×1% = 4%.

_____

If you look at the maximum and minimum density, you find they are ...

  {0.0611718, 0.0662668} g/(mm²·cm)

The ratio of the maximum value to the mean of these values is about 1.03998. So, the maximum is 3.998% higher than the "nominal" density.

The error is about 4%.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you work through the details of the math, you will see that the above-described sum of error percentages is <em>just an approximation</em>. If you need a more exact error estimate, it is best to work with the ranges of the numbers involved, and/or their distributions.

Using numbers with uniformly distributed errors will give different results than with normally distributed errors. When such distributions are involved, you need to carefully define what you mean by a maximum error. (By definition, normal distributions extend to infinity in both directions.) While the central limit theorem tends to apply, the actual shape of the error distribution may not be precisely normal.

10. Put the following in order of increasing size:
Blababa [14]

In the increasing size order, they are Universe, Andromeda galaxy, solar system, Arcturus, Sun, Earth.

  • The universe, cosmos contains all things. It has countless billions of galaxies.
  • The Andromeda Galaxy, together with the Triangulum Galaxy and about 30 other smaller galaxies, is the largest galaxy in the Local Group, which also contains the Milky Way.
  • A solar system comprises a star and all its planets, asteroids, comets, and other celestial bodies. It is considerably bigger in the universe, cosmos than a star.
  • Arcturus is a huge red star in the Northern Hemisphere of the Earth's atmosphere. When the sun has evolved into a red giant, it will look like Arcturus. Arcturus has a diameter that is roughly 25 times greater than the sun and earth.

Technician A says that if starter drive clearance is too small, the starter will produce a noise during cranking. Technician B s
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Both Technicians A and B are wrong in there answers.

Explanation:

Starter Drives are rotating mechanical component use to drive another component (flywheel) to start an engine. And thus they are known as starters. Starters are smaller than the component they drive. They are found commonly in automobiles.

The starter and the driven component(gear) are supposed to fit closely, with some clearance between the two gears so as to operate without noise. When the<u> clearance is too small </u>there will be a <u>noise after cranking,</u>  and   when the <u>clearance is too great</u> there be <u>noise before cranking</u>.

Cranking simply means starting an engine or the initial rotating of an engine to start it.
