Four people weigh a standard mass of 10.00 g on the same balance. The first person obtains a reading of 12.00 g, the second pers

on reads 9.14 g, the third person reads 10.33 g, and the fourth person reads 12.55 g. These readings suggest the balance is

Answer:

Neither accurate nor precise.

Explanation:

Accuracy is defined as the degree of agreement between the result of a measurement and a true value of the measurand. In other words, it refers to how close the measurements of a measurement system are to the actual value.

Precision is defined as the degree of agreement between the independent results of a measurement, obtained under stipulated conditions. That is, precision refers to how close the measurements of a measurement system are to the true value.

Both are independent of each other.

The correc answer is "Neither accurate nor precise."

The individual measurements are not close to each other and are therefore not accurate. But y are close to the actual value (10 g) and are therefore not exact.

That's the period of time known as one solar "day". We subdivide it into 24 slices which we call "hours". Using this system of time units, the day is about 4 minutes longer than one complete axial rotation of the Earth.

Why is it a good idea to start with room temperature water in the calorimeter?
densk [106]

Explanation:

It is a good idea to start with room temperature water in the calorimeter because the room temperature water helps to determine the heating up/cooling down because of the environment as the experiment takes place. Because the calorimeter heat is the same as the heat of the water.

When an apple falls towards the earth,the earth moves up to meet the apple. Is this true?If yes, why is the earth's motion not n
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

because the mass of the apple is very less compared to the mass of earth. Due to less mass the apple cannot produce noticable acceleration in the earth but the earth which has more mass produces noticable acceleration in the apple. thus we can see apple falling on towards the earth but we cannot see earth moving towards the apple.

2. A car accelerates uniformly from +10.0 m/s to +50.0 m/s over a distance of 225 m. How long did it take to go that distance? S
artcher [175]
Let's call the constant acceleration a.
At a time t, its speed will thus be v(t)=a*t+v0 where v0 is its initial speed, here 10 m/s. Hence v(t)=a*t+10.

From there we can deduce the position P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t+p0 where p0 is the initial position, here 0.

Hence P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t

Let's call T the time at which it's at 50 m/s, we know that P(T)=225m and that v(T)=50 m/s hence a*T+10=50 thus a=40/T and P(T)=(40/2+10)T=30T

Hence T=225/30=7.5

It took 7.5 seconds
