1. If Maggie gives her cat an unfair advantage, her experimental results will be biased.

Explanation:

Maggie using her cat in the experiment to test for intelligence gives the cat an unfair advantage, her experimental results will be biased.

Due to her emotional attachment with the cat, the experimental results will be skewed to portraying her cat as intelligence.
This is not a good experiment to carry out.
Such an experiment should be carried out with an unknown cat.

The circumference of a sphere was measured to be

professor190 [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the calculation of the surface, volume and error through the differentiation of the formulas given for the calculation of these values in a circle. Our values given at the beginning are

$\phi = 76cm$

$Error (dr) = 0.5cm$

The radius then would be

$\phi = 2\pi r \\76cm = 2\pi r\\r = \frac{38}{\pi} cm$

And

$\frac{d\phi}{dr} = 2\pi \\d\phi = 2\pi dr \\0.5 = 2\pi dr$

PART A ) For the Surface Area we have that,

$A = 4\pi r^2 \\A = 4\pi (\frac{38}{\pi})^2\\A = \frac{5776}{\pi}$

Deriving we have that the change in the Area is equivalent to the maximum error, therefore

$\frac{dA}{dr} = 4\pi (2r) \\dA = 4r (2\pi dr)$

Maximum error:

$dA = 4(\frac{38}{\pi})(0.5)$

$dA = \frac{76}{\pi}cm^2$

The relative error is that between the value of the Area and the maximum error, therefore:

$\frac{dA}{A} = \frac{\frac{76}{\pi}}{\frac{5776}{\pi}}$

$\frac{dA}{A} = 0.01315 = 1.31\%$

PART B) For the volume we repeat the same process but now with the formula for the calculation of the volume in a sphere, so

$V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

$V = \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{38}{\pi})^3$

$V = \frac{219488}{3\pi^2}$

Therefore the Maximum Error would be,

$\frac{dV}{dr} = \frac{4}{3} 3\pi r^2$

$dV = 2r^2 (2\pi dr)$

$dV = 4r^2 (\pi dr)$

Replacing the value for the radius

$dV = 4(\frac{38}{\pi})^2(0.5)$

$dV = \frac{2888}{\pi^2} cm^3$

And the relative Error

$\frac{dV}{V} = \frac{ \frac{2888}{\pi^2}}{ \frac{219488}{3\pi^2} }$

$\frac{dV}{V} = 0.03947$

$\frac{dV}{V} = 3.947\%$

The value of 1.0004 to the power 1 by 2 using Binomial approximation is

IgorLugansk [536]

Given:

The given value is $(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}$ .

To find:

The value of the given expression by using the Binomial approximation.

Explanation:

We have,

$(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

It can be written as:

$(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=(1+0.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

$(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.0004$ $[\because (1+x)^n=1+nx]$

$(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1+0.0002$

$(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1.0002$

Therefore, the approximate value of the given expression is 1.0002.

Newton’s Second Law of motion defines force in terms of mass and acceleration, F= ma. Which of the following is false? The term

NikAS [45]

Answer:

The forces creating the net force must lie in the same direction.

Explanation:

newton's second law states that the net force acting on the body is equal to the product of mass and the acceleration of the body.

If there are several forces acting on the body in different directions, then we have to find teh net force by using the vector sum and then find the acceleration.

It is not necessary that all the forces acting in the same direction.

if they are in different directions then we have to find the net force by t=using the formula for the vector sum.
