The 1st Law of Thermodynamics is a statement about energy conservation. It states that $\Delta U=Q-W$ , which means that if we substract the work W done by the system to the heat Q given to the system we get the change in the internal energy $\Delta U$ , so any excess in energy given to the system appears as internal energy, stating that energy is conserved.

You're carrying a 3.2-m-long, 24kg pole to a construction site when you decide to stop for a rest. You place one end of the pole

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Tension of 132N

Explanation:

We need to apply Summatory of Force to find the tension in the hand.

We define te tensión in the hand as $F_2$ and the Tension in fence post as $F_1$ , then

$\sum F = 24(9.8)$

$F_1 + F_2= 24(9.8)$

We apply summatory of moments then

$F_2*1.25 = F_1*1.6$

Where the Force 2 is 1.25m from the center of summatory,

We can note that,

$1.6 m - 0.35m=1.25m$

We have two equation and two incognites, then replacing (1) in (2)

$1.6(235.2 -F_2) = 1.25F_2$

$376.32 = F2(1.6+1.25)$

$F_2= \frac{376.32}{2.85}$

$F_2 =132 N$

In an experiment refractive index of glass was observed to be 1.45,1.56,1.54,1.44,1.54and1.53. Calculate mean value of refractiv

Sever21 [200]

The mean may be calculated by summing the values of the refractive index and dividing the sum by the number of experiments. This is:
Mean = (1.45 + 1.56 + 1.54 + 1.44 + 1.54 + 1.53)/6
Mean = 1.51

The mean absolute error is the sum of the absolute values of errors divided by the number of trials:
MAE = (|1.45-1.51|+|1.56-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.44-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.53-1.51|)/6
MAE = 0.043

The fractional error is the MAE divided by the actual value:
Fractional error = 0.043 / 1.51
Fractional error = 43/1510

The percentage error is the fractional error multiplied by 100:
Percentage error = 2.85%
