In the lab, Michelle and Brian measured the acceleration of a cart rolling on an inclined track with one block under one end, an

d found that the acceleration was 0.482 m/s2. On another table, Yasin and Cameron found, with a similar setup, an acceleration of 0.718 m/s2. a. What is the percent difference between the result found by Yasin and Cameron, aY&C, in terms of the result of Michelle and Brian, aM&B? b. What is the percent difference between the two results when you treat them as "equivalent"?

Answer:

a)  e% = 49.0%

, b)  e% = 19.7%

Explanation:

The percentage difference is the absolute uncertainty between the value accepted by 100

               e% = Δx / x_value

a) for this case the correct accepted value is x_value = 0.482 m / s²

               Δx = 0.718 - 0.482

               Δx = 0.236 m / s²

               e% = 0.236 / 0.482 100

               e% = 48.96%

b) In this case the results of the two experiments are real and the correct value is the average

              x_value = (0.482 + 0.718) / 2

              x_value = 0.600 m / s²

              e% = (0.718 - 0.600) / 0.600 100

              e% = 19.7%

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

y = 67.6 feet,   y = 114.4/ (22 - 3t)

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use that light travels in a straight line and some trigonometric relationships, the symbols are in the attached diagram

Large triangle Projector up to the screen

         tan θ = y / L

For the small triangle. Projector up to the person

         tan θ = y₀ / (L-d)

The angle is the same, so we equate the two equations

         y₀ / (L -d) = y / L

         y = y₀  L / (L-d)

The distance from the screen (d), we look for it with kinematics

         v = d / t

        d = v t

we replace

         y = y₀ L / (L - v t)

         y = 5.2 22 / (22 - 3 t)

         y = 114.4 (22 - 3t)⁻¹

This is the equation of the shadow height change as a function of time

For the suggested distance the shadow has a height of

           y = 114.4 / (22-13)

           y = 67.6 feet

How many cubic feet are in a 55-gallon drum?
san4es73 [151]
1 gallon = 231 cubic inches
1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches

                       (55 gal) x (231 in³/gal) x (1 ft³/1728 in³)

                   =    (55 x 231 / 1728)  ft³

                   =         7.352 cubic feet       (rounded)

kiruha [24]

Answer:

C.) The same as one

Explanation:

Because the Ferris wheel has two bars at the side that keep it in place so it doesn't roll away. The Ferris wheel only moves in one place. If the ferris wheel did roll then you would have a greater than one. If it did roll it would be dangerous.

A blow-dryer and a vacuum cleaner each operate with a voltage of 120 V. The current rating of the blow- dryer is 11 Amps, and th
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

(a) 1320 W

(b) 480 W

(c) E':E ≈ 11:2

Explanation:

(a) Applying,

P' = VI'................. Equation 1

Where P' = Power of the blow-dryer, V = Voltage, I = current rating of the blow-dryer.

From the question,

Given: V = 120 V, I' = 11 A

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (120×11)

P = 1320 W

(b) Similarly,

P = VI................... Equation 2

Where P = Power of the vacuum cleaner. I = current rating of the vacuum cleaner.

Also Given: I = 4 A,

Therefore

P = 4(120)

P = 480 W

(c)

E' = P'/t'............. Equation 3

E = P/t................ Equation 4

Where E' = Energy of the blow-dryer, t' = time of use of the blow-dryer, E = Energy of the vacuum cleaner, t = time of use of the vacuum cleaner

From the question,

Given: t' = 15 minutes = (15×60) = 900 seconds, t = 30 minutes = (30×60) = 1800 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 3 and 4

E' = 1320/900

E' = 1.47 J,

E = 480/1800

E = 0.267

Therefore,

E':E = 1.47:0.267

E':E ≈ 11:2
