Answer:

g/cm³

Explanation:

From the question given above,

The y-axis is representing mass (g)

The x-axis is representing volume (cm³)

Unit of slope =?

Slope of a graph is simply defined as the change in y-axis divided by the change in x-axis. Mathematically it is expressed as:

Slope = change in y-axis (Δy)/change in x-axis (Δx)

Slope = Δy/Δx

Thus, with the above formula, we can obtain the unit used for measuring the slope as follow:

y-axis = mass (g)

x-axis = volume (cm³)

Slope =.?

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = mass (g) /volume (cm³)

Slope = g/cm³

Therefore, the derive unit used for measuring the slope is g/cm³

Joe is measuring the time it takes for a ball to roll down a ramp. In this experiment Joe takes the measurement 5 times and gets

PolarNik [594]

Step by step solution :

standard deviation is given by :

$\sigma = \sqrt\dfrac{{\sum (x-\bar{x})^2}}{n}$

where, $\sigma$ is standard deviation

$\bar{x}$ is mean of given data

n is number of observations

From the above data, $\bar{x}=24.88$

Now, if $x=24.8$ , then $(x-\bar{x})^2=0.0064$

If $x=23.9$ , then $(x-\bar{x})^2=0.9604$

if $x=26.1$ , then $(x-\bar{x})^2=1.4884$

If $x=25.1$ , then $(x-\bar{x})^2=0.0484$

If $x=24.5$ , then $(x-\bar{x})^2=0.1444$

so, $\sum (x-\bar{x})^2 =\frac{0.0064+0.9604+1.4884+0.0484+0.1444}{5}$

$\sum (x-\bar{x})^2 =2.648$

$\sqrt{\sum \frac{(x-\bar{x})^2}{n}}$

$\sigma =0.7277$

No, Joe's value does not agree with the accepted value of 25.9 seconds. This shows a lots of errors.

Which of the following statements correctly describe the various forms of EM radiation listed above?A) They have different wavel

Aleksandr [31]

Answer: A and B

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiations are examples of electromagnetic waves with increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength in the following order radiowaves - infrared waves - visible lights - ultraviolet rays- x-rays - gamma rays.

They did not require material medium for their propagation.

The statement above shows that EM radiations possesses different wavelengths and frequency.

How long( in hours, will it take for 500 000 C of charge to flow through a diode if it requires

Alina [70]

Answer:

277.78 hours

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the amount of charge is expressed as;

Q = It

I is the current

t is the time

Given

I =0.05A

Q = 50,000C

Required

Time t

Recall that: Q = It

t = Q/I

t = 50,000/0.05

t = 1,000,000secs

Convert to hours

1,000,000secs = 1,000,000/3600

1,000,000secs = 277.78 hours

Hence it will take 277.78 hours for the charge to flow through the diode

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a _____ scale or _____ scale.

allsm [11]

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.
