NEED HELP ASAP Carlos is analyzing the results of a recent scientific study about gravity. Scientists recorded that the experime

ntal value of gravity was 10.24 m/s² and the general accepted value of gravity is 9.81 m/s². Calculate the percent error of the experimental versus accepted values of gravity. 5.01% 4.38% 2.66% 9.27%

Answer:

4.38 %

Explanation:

Given that,

The experimental value of gravity is 10.24 m/s²

The general accepted value of gravity is 9.81 m/s²

We need to find the percent error of the experimental versus accepted values of gravity.

The formula used to find the percentage error is given by :

\%=\dfrac{|\text{original value-calculated value}|}{\text{original value}}

Putting all the values:

\%g=\dfrac{|9.81-10.24|}{9.81}\times 100\\\\\%g=4.38 \%

So, the percentage error is 4.38 %.

A ball is thrown straight up into the air and passes a window 3 seconds after being released. It passes the same window on its w
melomori [17]

The  initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

<h3>Initial velocity of the ball</h3>

The initial velocity of the ball is calculated as follows;

During upward motion

h = vi - ¹/₂gt²

h = vi - 0.5(9.8)(3²)

h = vi - 44.1 ----------------- (1)

During downward motion

h = vi + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + 0.5(9.8)(1.5)²

h = 11.025 ----------- (2)

solve (1) and (2) together, to determine the initial velocity of the ball

11.025 = vi - 44.1

vi = 11.025 + 44.1

vi = 55.125 m/s

Thus, the  initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

According to the law of conservation of matter, what number must be the same on each side of a chemical equation?
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

4. The number of atoms of each element

Explanation:

<em><u>Why is 1 wrong?</u></em>

The number of substances (i.e. number of mols of substances) do not have to be the same. For instance, 2 mol of water reacts with 1 mol of oxygen to form 2 mol of water. Obviously the numer of substances is not conserved. Thus, it isn't a requirement.

<em><u>Why is 2 wrong?</u></em>

The number of chemical symbols do not mean anything. They do not tell us anything about the quantity of matter, they only tell us about the elements that are involved in the reaction.

<em><u>Why is 3 wrong?</u></em>

Once again, the number of chemical formulas are meaningless.

<u><em>Why is 4 correct?</em></u>

The number of atoms are always conserved as atoms cannot be broken or created.

<em><u>Possible confusion...</u></em>

The number of atoms are always conserved but the number of molecules may not always be conserved.

Why? As 2 atoms may be a molecule on the reactant side and 4 atoms may become a molecule on the product size, causing the number of molecules to reduce by half, while the number of atoms remain constant.

Hope that makes sense!

What is the relationship between temperature and altitude in the stratosphere? (2 points).
stealth61 [152]
As altitude increases, temperature increases. The stratosphere is the part of the atmosphere that starts in the tropopause and ends in the estratopause. In the troposphere, the air is close to the Earth surface. The air surface can absorb more sunlight energy than the air, so the Earth surface heats the air. As you go higher, the distance to the Earth surface is higher, so the temperature is lower. The troposphere ends in the tropopause, where this trend changes. In the estratopause, there is a lot of ozone, which absorbs the dangerous UV radiation and converts into heat. That heat warms the air. So the air which is close to the estratopause is warm because of the heat released by the ozone reactions. The tropopause is far from the Earth surface and far from the ozone layer, that’s why it is cold. So the tropopause is cold and the estratopause is warm, which means: the air becomes warmer <span>as you rise above the tropopause until you get to the estratopause.</span>

Two advantages of solar energy over energy from Fossil fuels​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

1)Fuel Sourcing

2)Power Generation

Explanation:

1)Fuel Sourcing : Fossil fuels must be located, excavated and transported before they can be used. These processes are invasive and detrimental to the land through side effects such as erosion as well as ecological and geologic instability. Then the deposit or well is depleted. Energy from the sun is infinite and free. It can be harnessed and turned into power anywhere a solar panel can be mounted.

2)Power Generation: Fossil fuels must be burned to produce electricity. Burning them creates unwanted byproducts that can create air and water pollution and release huge amounts of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.
