Answer:

The answer is D

Explanation:

Because scientists from around the world need a way to share data they can all understand

Because scientists all over the world are working together, looking for answers to the same questions, just as much as if they all worked in the same physical laboratory in the same building.  They need a way to share data and experimental results in a form that everyone can understand. ( D )

Let's say I perform an experiment and get very exciting results. I'm a good scientist, so the next thing I want to do is to publish a complete description of how I did my experiment, and include all of my results.  That way, scientists around the world can read about what I did, they can find any mistakes that I made, and they can even repeat my experiment for themselves and see if they get the same results.

Now let's say that my results looked like this:

Result #1). 

The reaction stabilized when it reached the rate of 1.26 briligs per tove.

Result #2).

After running at that constant rate for 35 toves, a pile of product was produced whose mass was exactly 61.284 wibbles.

Result #3).

When the pile of product was allowed to settle for another 20 toves, it had spread out, and covered an area of 14.907 square filks.

Do YOU understand my results ?

All those other scientists would have a tough time trying to decide whether my results made sense.  And if they repeated my experiment, they would have no way to tell whether their results matched mine or not.

Without a standard system of measurement, and units that mean the same thing to everybody, us scientists literally could not communicate.

What is the minimum frequency with which a 200-turn, flat coil of cross sectional area 300 cm2 can be rotated in a uniform 30-mT
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The minimum frequency of the coil is 7.1 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns, N = 200 turns

cross sectional area, A = 300 cm² = 300 x 10⁻⁴ m²

magnitude of magnetic field strength, B = 30 x 10⁻³ T

maximum value of the induced emf, E = 8 V

Maximum induced emf is given as;

E = NBAω

where

ω is angular velocity (ω = 2πf)

E = NBA2πf

where;

f is the minimum frequency, measured in hertz (Hz)

f = E / (NBA2π)

f = 8 / (200 x 30 x 10⁻³  x 300 x 10⁻⁴ x 2 x 3.142)

f = 7.073 Hz

f = 7.1 Hz

Therefore, the minimum frequency of the coil is 7.1 Hz

What are the two principle advantages of telescopes over eyes?
Stells [14]

Answer:

i) Telescopes can be used to view far distant objects but the human eye can't view far distant objects.

ii) Telescopes uses two convex lenses producing a magnified image while the human eye only possesses one convex lens (image seen are smaller than that viewed under telescopes)

Explanation:

The telescopes can be used to view far distant objects due to their presence of two convex lenses. The two convex lenses are the objective lens (lens closer to object) and the eye piece lens (lens closer to eye). The object to be viewed forms an intermediate image first before the final image is seen using the eye piece lens.

The human eye only possess one convex lens and as such cannot view far ranged objects.

A vehicle travelling at an initial velocity of 20km/hr,accelerates at 4m/s².calculate its final velocity after 10 seconds.​
Nikitich [7]

acceleration = Velocity changes ÷ time of the velocity changes

4 m/s^2 =

4 × 10^(-3) × 3600 km / h =

4 × 3.6 =

14.4 km / h

Thus :

14.4 = V(2) - V(1) / t(2) - t(1)

14.4 = V(2) - 20 / 10

Multiply both sides by 10

10 × 14.4 = 10 × ( V(2) - 20 ) / 10

144 = V(2) - 20

Add both sides 20

144 + 20 = V(2) - 20 + 20

V(2) = 164 Km/h

Thus the final velocity after 10 seconds is 164 Km/h .
