If someone were monitoring your vital signs (like your heart rate, oxygen content in your blood, blood pressure, etc.) every hou

r in a hospital, you would
likely want them to be both accurate and precise in their measurements. Make an argument for why what you think is more important, accuracy or
precision?

Answer:

Accuracy

Explanation:

I think accuracy is more important. When it comes to vital organs in the body, the exactness of getting the measurement is paramount. Accuracy deals with getting very close, almost exact you may say, to a known standard. Precision on the other hand, deals with how easy a measurement can be retaken, reproduced or remade, irrespective of how far or close they are from the accepted norm.

From this, we can agree that precision neglects the most important factor, closeness or say, exactness. Precision isn't bothered by it. And while that can be excused in a few instances, it certainly can not be permitted when it comes to life, or organs of the body

A vector has an x-component of length 10 and a y-component of length 3. What is the angle of the vector? (Hint: Use the inverse
Sonja [21]
The vector, the x-component and the y-component form a rectangle triangle where the vector is the hypothenuse and the x and y components are the two sides.
Calling \alpha the angle between the vector and the horizontal direction (x), the two sides are related to \alpha by
\tan \alpha  =  \frac{v_y}{v_x}
where vy and vx are the two components on the y- and x-axis. Using vx=10 and vy=3 we find
\tan \alpha  =  \frac{3}{10} =0.3
And so the angle is
\alpha = \arctan (0.3)=16.7^{\circ}

What are visible colors of light has the longest wavelength?
sasho [114]

Answer:

Red has the longest wavelength among all the visible colors of light.

Explanation:

Visible light is the only electromagnetic radiations which can be seen by human eye.  When white visible light passes through a prism it breaks down into 7 distinctive colors of rainbow.

These are red, orange, yellow, green blue, indigo and violet.

Red has the longest wavelength of around 700 nano meters with violet has the shortest wavelength of 380 nano meters.

A key falls from a bridge that is 44 m above the water. It falls directly into a model boat, moving with constant velocity, that
Lady_Fox [76]

The time t it takes for the key to fall 44 m is

44\,\mathrm m=\dfrac12\left(9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\implies t=3.0\,\mathrm s

(notice I'm taking the downward direction to be positive)

The boat, moving at a presumably constant speed, then has 3.0 s to travel 19 m to the point of impact, which means its speed must be

v=\dfrac{19\,\mathrm m}{3.0\,\mathrm s}=6.3\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}
