It's lead.  That's why the "apron" is so heavy.

A student took a calibrated 250.0 gram mass, weighed it on a laboratory balance, and found it read 266.5 g. What was the student
Kruka [31]

Answer:

B. 6.6%

Explanation:

The percentage error of a measurement can be calculated using the formula;

Percent error = (experimental value - accepted value / accepted value) × 100

In this question, the calibrated 250.0 gram mass is the accepted value while the weighed mass of 266.5 g is the experimental or measured value.

Hence, the percentage error can be calculated thus;

Percent error = (266.5-250.0/250.0) × 100

Percent error = 16.5/250 × 100

Percent error = 0.066 × 100

Percent error = 6.6%

Rita jeptoo of kenya was the first female finisher in the 110th boston marathon. she ran the first 10.0 km in a time of 0.5689 h
stira [4]

Part a

Answer: 17.58 km/h

Average speed=\frac{Total\hspace{1mm}Distance}{Total\hspace{1mm}Time}

Total Distance =10 km

Total time =0.5689 h

\Rightarrow Average speed=\frac{10\hspace{1mm}km}{0.5689\hspace{1mm}h}=17.6 \hspace{1mm}km/h

Part b

Answer: 17.626 km/h

Average speed=\frac{Total\hspace{1mm}Distance}{Total\hspace{1mm}Time}

Total Distance =42.195 km

Total time =2.3939 h

\Rightarrow Average speed=\frac{42.195\hspace{1mm}km}{2.3939\hspace{1mm}h}=17.626\hspace{1mm}km/h

Which best describes the relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave?
sammy [17]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave would be the <span>energy direction is perpendicular to the motion of the wave. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

A 0.2 kg block sliding on a horizontal table slows down from 25 m/s to 20 m/s. How much energy does the block lose due to fricti
Papessa [141]

Answer:

the kinetic energy lost due to friction is 22.5 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the block, m = 0.2 kg

initial velocity of the block, u = 25 m/s

final velocity of the block, v = 20 m/s

The kinetic energy lost due to friction is calculated as;

\Delta K.E= K.E_f - K.E_i\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -  \frac{1}{2}mu^2\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2}m(v^2 -u^2)\\\\\Delta K.E= \frac{1}{2} \times 0.2 (20^2 - 25^2)\\\\\Delta K.E= -22.5 \ J

Therefore, the kinetic energy lost due to friction is 22.5 J
