Explanation:

Formula for calculating the area of a  rectangle A = Length *width

For statement A;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.4mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.5504mm²

The rule of significant figures states that we should always convert the answer to the least number of significant figure amount the given value in question. Since 1.4mm has 2 significant figure, hence we will convert our answer to 2 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.6mm² (to 2sf)

For statement B;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.41 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.41mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.57576mm²

Similarly, Since 1.41mm has 3 significant figure compare to 2.536 that has 4sf, hence we will convert our answer to 3 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.58mm² (to 3sf)

Based on the conversion, it can be seen that 3.6mm²  is greater than 3.58mm², hence the area of rectangle in statement A is greater than the area of the rectangle in statement B.

Suppose you wish to whirl a pail full of water in a vertical circle at a constant speed without spilling any of its contents (ev
Yanka [14]

Answer:

V = 2.87 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.

Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:

Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r

where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.

For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m

and solving the above equation we get:

9.81 = V^2 / 0.84

V^2 = 8.2404

V = 2.87 m/s

Is the relationship between velocity and centripetal force a direct, linear or nonlinear square relationship?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

non linear square relationship

Explanation:

formula for centripetal force is given as

a = mv^2/r

here a ic centripetal acceleration , m is mass of body moving in circle of radius r and v is velocity of body . If m ,and r are constant we have

a = constant × v^2

a α v^2

hence non linear square relationship

You are an astronaut in space far away from any gravitational field, and you throw a rock as hard as you can. The rock will:
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

the rock will continue at the same speed unless it is affected by another force such as gravity and so if you threw it it will continue to move unless affected by a force

Explanation:

this is because Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.

What is the overall charge of 1.5 x 10^10 electrons?
Troyanec [42]

Answer: Charge = -2.4x10^-9 Coulombs

Explanation:

The charge of one electron is e = -1.6x10^-19 C

Then, the charge of 1.5 x 10^10 electrons is equal to 1.5 x 10^10 times the charge of one electron:

Here i will use the relation (a^b)*(a^c) = a^(b + c)

Charge = ( 1.5 x 10^10)*( -1.6x10^-19 C) = -2.4x10^(10 - 19) C  

Charge = -2.4x10^-9 C
