Desired operation: A + B = C; {A,B,C) are vector quantities. 

<span>Issue: {A,B} contain error (measurement or otherwise) </span>

<span>Objective: estimate the error in the vector sum. </span>

<span>Let A = u + du; where u is the nominal value of A and du is the error in A </span>
<span>Let B = v + dv; where v is the nominal value of B and dv is the error in B </span>
<span>Let C = w + dw; where w is the nominal value of C and dw is the error in C [the objective] </span>

<span>C = A + B </span>

<span>w + dw = (u + du) + (v + dv) </span>

<span>w + dw = (u + v) + (du + dv) </span>

<span>w = u+v; dw = du + dv </span>

<span>The error associated with w is the vector sum of the errors associated with the measured quantities (u,v)</span>

3. Take sugar, oil, corn syrup, a glass and water. Pour the water in the glass and then add each of the above the substances one
hoa [83]

Here are the observations

<u>S</u><u>u</u><u>g</u><u>a</u><u>r</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • Sugar is soluble in water
  • so It will dissolve in water .

<u>C</u><u>o</u><u>r</u><u>n</u><u> </u><u>s</u><u>y</u><u>r</u><u>u</u><u>p</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • Corn syrup is also basically a sugar.
  • It will dissolve in water too .
  • If we shake the mixture in glass then corn syrup will be dissolved.

<u>O</u><u>i</u><u>l</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • Oil is not soluble in water
  • Hence it won't dissolve in water.
  • It will float over water and make two layers

A spider spins a web with silk threads of density 1300 kg/m3 and diameter 3.0 μm . a typical tension in the radial threads of su
Tema [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The velocity of a wave in a string is equal to:

v = √(T / (m/L))

where T is the tension and m/L is the mass per length.

To find the mass per length, we need to find the cross-sectional area of the thread.

A = πr² = π/4 d²

A = π (3.0×10⁻⁶ m)²

A = 2.83×10⁻¹¹ m²

So the mass per length is:

m/L = ρA

m/L = (1300 kg/m³) (2.83×10⁻¹¹ m²)

m/L = 3.68×10⁻⁸ kg/m

So the wave velocity is:

v = √(T / (m/L))

v = √(7.0×10⁻³ N / (3.68×10⁻⁸ kg/m))

v ≈ 440 m/s

The speed of sound in air at sea level is around 340 m/s.  So the spider will feel the vibration in the thread before it hears the sound.

A phone cord is 4.89 m long. The cord has a mass of 0.212 kg. A transverse wave pulse is produced by plucking one end of the tau
slega [8]

Answer:

Tension in Cord=174 N

Explanation:

Given Data

L (Phone Cord Length)=4.89 m

m (Cord Mass)=0.212 Kg

T (Time for four trips)=0.617 s

Tension=?

Solution

V=λ×f

V=\frac{8*4.89}{0.617}\\ V=63.4m/s

Sigma=\frac{mass}{length}\\ Sigma=\frac{0.212}{4.89}\\ Sigma=0.0433 \frac{kg}{m}

Wave Speed=\sqrt{\frac{Tension}{Sigma} }\\ \\V=\sqrt{\frac{T}{Sigma} }\\ V^{2}=\frac{T}{Sigma}\\  T=V^{2}*Sigma\\ T=(63.4)^{2}*(0.0433)\\ T=174 N

Which describes the molecular motion of a solid nickel marble rolled across the floor?
Gemiola [76]
I can't decide between A and B, but B seems more likely to me. Even though the molecules don't look like they're moving, the area of contact is slightly more compressed.
