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.

A 2kg book is held against a vertical wall. The coefficient of friction is 0.45. What is the minimum force that must be applied
Vika [28.1K]

We have that for the Question "A 2kg book is held against a vertical wall. The <em>coefficient </em>of friction is 0.45. What is the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book</em>, perpendicular to the wall, to prevent the book from slipping down the wal" it can be said that  the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book is</em>

  • F=44N

From the question we are told

A 2kg book is held against a vertical wall. The <em>coefficient </em>of friction is 0.45. What is the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book</em>, perpendicular to the wall, to prevent the book from slipping down the wal

Generally the equation for the  Force  is mathematically given as

F=\frac{mg}{\mu}\\\\F=\frac{2*9.8}{0.45}\\\\

F=44N

Therefore

the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book is</em>

F=44N

When comparing two circuits, you note that circuit one has twice the resistance and double the voltage of circuit two. This mean
pochemuha

This means that there is same current flow in both the circuit, or the circuit one has twice the power of circuit two.

According to ohm's law, the resistance is given as

I=V/R

Since the circuit one has twice the voltage, and resistance

I1=I2

posledela

Answer:

180.4 m

Explanation:

The package in relation to the point where it was released falls a certain distance that is calculated by applying the horizontal motion formulas , as the horizontal speed of the plane and the height above the ground are known, the time that It takes the package to reach its destination and then the horizontal distance (x) is calculated from where it was dropped, as follows:    

$V_{ox}=v_x = 40 \ m/s$

   h = 100 m  

    x =?

     Height formula h:

     $h=g \times \frac{t^2}{2}$

      Time t is cleared:

     $t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

      $t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 100}{9.8}}$

      t = 4.51 sec

 Horizontal distance formula x:

       $x=V_x \times t$

        x = 40 m / sec x 4.51 sec

        x = 180.4 m
