Answer:

accuracy refers to the deviation of a measurement from a standard or true value of the quantity being measured

Describe how the basic measurements of length, volume, and mass were determined in the
Anna11 [10]

the basic measurements of length, volume, and mass are 1 meter, 1 meter³  and 1kilogram.

One 10-millionth of the distance from the North Pole to the equator would equal one meter.

A cube with sides of one meter has a volume of one meter³.

The mass of 1,000 cubic centimeters of water is very close to (and was originally intended to be exactly) one kilograms.

but today a more precise way to define is available in which:

1 meter is defined as the distance traveled by light in 1/3×10⁸ sec.

The weight of a specific platinum-iridium prototype held by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures is defined as 1 kg.

moreover these measurements are man made and are not absolute and therefore many new units of measurement can be defined as long as they are fundamentally same everywhere.

2) A ray of light in air is approaching the boundary with water at an
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Explanation:

ASSUMING the 52° is the angle of incidence measured from the perpendicular to the surface

          n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂

          1 sin52 = 1.33sinθ₂

                  θ₂ = arcsin(sin52 / 1.33)

                  θ₂ = 36°

as measured from the perpendicular to the surface

If an astronaut had a mass of 30 kg on the moon what would his mass be on earth?
Novay_Z [31]

Explanation:

A one-kilogram mass is still a one-kilogram(as mass is an intrinsic property of the object) but the downward force due to gravity, and therefore it's weight, is only one-sixth of what the object would have on the Earth. So man of mass 180 pounds weights only about 30 pounds-force when visiting the moon

hope it help..... pls add me as brainlist.

Have a nice day

a girl that has a mass of 55kg is standing on a floor, how much supporting force does the floor have?
KengaRu [80]
A girl standing on a floor would have two opposite forces acting on it. These forces are the weight and the normal force. Since no other forces are acting and that the girl is at rest, then the weight must equate to the normal force. Therefore, the supporting force would be:

F = mg = 55kg (9.81 m/s^2) = 539.55 N
