A special standard weight, known to weight 10 N to high accuracy, is used to check the accuracy of two spring scales. On the fir

st scale the weight gives a reading of 8.4 N. On the second scale the weight gives a reading of 9.1 N. The percent difference between the measurements of the two scales is %. (Never negative.)

Answer:

16 % and 9 %

Explanation:

Accurate reading = 10 N

reading of first balance = 8.4 N

reading of second balance = 9.1 N

Percentage difference in first reading

= \frac{True reading - reading of first balance}{True reading}\times 100 %

= \frac{10-8.4}{10}\times 100 % = 16 %

Percentage difference in second reading

= \frac{True reading - reading of second balance}{True reading}\times 100 %

= \frac{10-9.1}{10}\times 100 % = 9 %

A electric heater that draws 13.5 a of dc current has been left on for 10 min. how many electrons that have passed through the h
kicyunya [14]
By definition, Ampere is a unit of current which is a measure of the amount of charge passing through a point in a circuit per unit  of time, with an equivalent charge of 1.602 x 10^(-19) Coulomb per electron. To determine the number of electrons passing through the heater, we use the definition of the current. We calculate as follows:

13.5 A = 13.5 C per second
Charge = 13.5 C/s (10 min) ( 60 s / 1 min)
Charge = 8100 C 

Number of electrons = 8100 C / 1.602 x 10^(-19) C per electron
Number of electrons = 5.1 x 10^22 electrons

Therefore, there are 5.1 x10^22 electrons that assed through the heater for 10 minutes.

The correct answer would be C. it moves at a constant speed. The troposphere(the layer our weather is in) is not nearly high enough for gravity to be different at different altitudes.

A mass on a spring A oscillates at twice the frequency of the same mass on spring B. Which statement is correct?A.The spring con
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

A.The spring constant for B is one quarter of the spring constant for A.

Explanation:

If spring A oscillates at twice the frequency of spring B, and period is frequency inverted. It means spring B has a period twice of spring A's.

T_B = 2T_A

As T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}, and the 2 springs have the same mass

2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k_B}} = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k_A}}

\sqrt{k_A} = 2\sqrt{B}

k_A = 4k_B

k_B = k_A/4

So A.The spring constant for B is one quarter of the spring constant for A. is the correct answer.
