Perform the following calculations and give your answer with the correct number of significant figures

1 answer:

love history [14]2 years ago

3 0

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

a. 0.1886 x 12 =2.2632

This has 2 sig figures so the answer can only have 2 sig figures

2.3

b. 2.995 - 0.16685 =2.82815

The most accurate in the problem is to thousands place so our answer can only be accurate to the thousands place

2.828

c. 910 x 0.18945=172.3995

The least number of significant figures is 3 so the answer can only have 3 significant figures

172

Which of the following is/are true? Electromagnetic waves are created by accelerating charges. Electromagnetic waves are transve

Vikki [24]

Answer:

All of the above are true.

Explanation:

(a). true

whenever charge particle move back and froth from its mean position then it will produce oscillating electric and magnetic fields, . so an em wave can be obtain by accelerating charge

(b). true

the electric field and the magnetic field have vibrations in the perpendicular direction along the motion of the wave so electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave. therefore, the EM wave is a Transverse wave

(c) true .

The Electromagnetic wave consists of the two mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields and also both fields are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

(d) true .

An electromagnetic wave carry energy through vacuum with a speed of $3 \times 10^8 m/s$

so , all of the above are true.

A projectile is launched straight up from a height of 960 feet with an initial velocity of 64 ft/sec. Its height at time t is h(

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

a) $t=2s$

b) $h_{max}=1024ft$

c) $v_{y}=-256ft/s$

Explanation:

From the exercise we know the initial velocity of the projectile and its initial height

$v_{y}=64ft/s\\h_{o}=960ft\\g=-32ft/s^2$

To find what time does it take to reach maximum height we need to find how high will it go

b) We can calculate its initial height using the following formula

Knowing that its velocity is zero at its maximum height

$v_{y}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2g(y-y_{o})$

$0=(64ft/s)^2-2(32ft/s^2)(y-960ft)$

$y=\frac{-(64ft/s)^2-2(32ft/s^2)(960ft)}{-2(32ft/s^2)}=1024ft$

So, the projectile goes 1024 ft high

a) From the equation of height we calculate how long does it take to reach maximum point

$h=-16t^2+64t+960$

$1024=-16t^2+64t+960$

$0=-16t^2+64t-64$

Solving the quadratic equation

$t=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

$a=-16\\b=64\\c=-64$

$t=2s$

So, the projectile reach maximum point at t=2s

c) We can calculate the final velocity by using the following formula:

$v_{y}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2g(y-y_{o})$

$v_{y}=±\sqrt{(64ft/s)^{2}-2(32ft/s^2)(-960ft)}=±256ft/s$

Since the projectile is going down the velocity at the instant it reaches the ground is:

$v=-256ft/s$
