Do all of our scientific instruments have a limit on how precise they can make a measurement?

Yes. that is "True".

All instruments have limited exactness, so the capacity to determine little contrasts in measurement is subsequently restricted.  

Precision alludes to the closeness of at least two estimations to one another. For example, on the off chance that you gauge a given substance five times, and get 3.2 kg each time, at that point your estimation is precise. You can be extremely precise yet mistaken. You can likewise be exact yet not precise.

A fan that is switched on for 1 minute uses 500 W usefully but also wastes 300 W through the emission of sound and heat. What's
koban [17]

Explanation:

Efficiency is defined as the ratio between the useful output over the total amount consumed. E = \frac{useful}{total}

The fan does 500W of useful work while wasting 300 W. The total power consumption is 800 W (500 + 300).

17. (a) Will the electric field strength between two parallel conducting plates exceed the breakdown strength for air ( 3.0×106
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance between plates d = 2 x 10⁻³m

Potential diff applied = 5 x 10³ V

Electric field = Potential diff applied /  d

= 5 x 10³  / 2 x 10⁻³

= 2.5 x 10⁶ V/m

This is less than  breakdown strength for air  3.0×10⁶ V/m

b ) Let the plates be at a separation of d .so

5 x 10³ / d = 3.0×10⁶ ( break down voltage )

d = 5 x 10³  / 3.0×10⁶

= 1.67 x 10⁻³ m

= 1.67 mm.

Two football players are pushing a 60 kg blocking sled across the field at a constant speed of 2.0 m/s. The coefficient of kinet
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The sled slides d=0.155 meters before rest.

Explanation:

m= 60 kg

V= 2 m/s

μ= 0.3

g= 9.8 m/s²

W= m * g

W= 588 N

Fr= μ* W

Fr= 176.4 N

∑F = m * a

a= (W+Fr)/m

a= 12.74m/s²

t= V/a

t= 0.156 s

d= V*t - a*t²/2

d= 0.155 m

Sound waves cannot travel in
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The answer is D.  A Vacumn

Explanation:

Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. A vacuum is an area without any air, like space. So sound cannot travel through space because there is no matter for the vibrations to work in.
