Answer:
a) temperature: random error
b) parallax: systematic error
c) using incorrect value: systematic error
Explanation:
Systematic errors are associated with faulty calibration or reading of the equipments used and they could be avoided refining your method.
Answer Explanation:
the efficiency of the the engine is given by=1-
where T₂= lower temperature
T₁= Higher temperature
we have given efficiency =70%
lower temperature T₂=27°C=273+27=300K
higher temperature T₁=627°C=273+627=900K
efficiency=1-
=1-
=1-0.3333
=0.6666
=66%
66% is less than 70% so so inventor claim is wrong
Answer:
In Btu:
Q=0.001390 Btu.
In Joule:
Q=1.467 J
Part B:
Temperature at midpoint=274.866 C
Explanation:
Thermal Conductivity=k=30 (Btu/hr)/(ft ⋅ °F)= 
Thermal Conductivity is SI units:

Length=20 cm=0.2 m= (20*0.0328) ft=0.656 ft
Radius=4/2=2 mm =0.002 m=(0.002*3.28)ft=0.00656 ft
T_1=500 C=932 F
T_2=50 C= 122 F
Part A:
In Joules (J)

Heat Q is:

In Btu:

Heat Q is:

PArt B:
At midpoint Length=L/2=0.1 m

On rearranging:


Answer:
0.4 gallons per second
Explanation:
A function shows the relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable.
The independent variable (x values) are input variables i.e. they don't depend on other variables while the dependent variable (y values) are output variables i.e. they depend on other variables.
The rate of change or slope or constant of proportionality is the ratio of the dependent variable (y value) to the independent variable (x value).
Given that the garden hose fills a 2-gallon bucket in 5 seconds. The dependent variable = g = number of gallons, the independent variable = t = number of seconds.
Constant of proportionality = g / t = 2 / 5 = 0.4 gallons per second
