The least count of stopwatch is 0.2s.The time of 20 oscillations of a pendulum was measured to be 25s.Find the percentage error
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

0.8%

Explanation:

We are given;

Number of oscillations; n = 20

Time taken; t = 25 s

Formula for period of oscillation;

T = t/n = 25/20 = 1.25 s

We are told that the least count is 0.2 s. Thus, error is; ΔT = 0.2 s

percentage error in the measurement of time is given by;

(0.2/(20 × 1.25)) × 100% = 0.8%

A certain tuning fork vibrates at a frequency of 215 Hz while each tip of its two prongs has an amplitude of 0.832 mm. (a) What
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of vibration, f = 215 Hz

Amplitude, A = 0.832 mm

(a) Let T is the period of this motion. It is given by the following relation as :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{1}{215}

T=4.65\times 10^{-3}\ s

(b) Speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

It can be given by :

v=f\times \lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{215\ Hz}

\lambda=1.59\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

Porque deja de funcionar una estufa electrica cuando la electricidad es excesiva??
Brums [2.3K]
<h3>Porque deja de funcionar una estufa electrica cuando la electricidad es excesiva?</h3>

  • Es normal que los quemadores superiores de una estufa eléctrica o una estufa se enciendan y apaguen en configuraciones distintas a Hi. El quemador se encenderá y apagará más de lo normal cuando se utilizan cacerolas que no son planas o que son del tamaño incorrecto para el quemador.

An object is placed at zero zero on a Number line. It moves three units to the right, then four units to the left, and then 60 u
STatiana [176]

Answer:

the displacement of the object is 5 units

Explanation:

The computation of the displacement of the object is shown below:

= Move to the right + move to the right - move to the left

= 6 units + 3 units - 4 units

= 9 units - 4 units

= 5 units

Hence, the displacement of the object is 5 units
