Answer:
The percentage error in quantity P is 19%.
Explanation:
It is given that,
A physical quantity P is related to four observables a, b and c as follows:
The percentage errors of measurements in a, b and c are 1%, 4% and 2% respectively.
We need to find the percentage error in quantity P. It is given by :
So, the percentage error in quantity P is 19%.
Answer:
a) h=3.16 m, b) v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s
Explanation:
a) For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy
Starting point. Highest on the hill
Em₀ = U = mg h
final point. Lowest point
= K
Scientific energy has two parts, one of translation of center of mass (center of the sphere) and one of stationery, the sphere
K = ½ m + ½
w²
angular and linear speed are related
v = w r
w = v / r
K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} v_{cm }^{2} / r²
Em_{f} = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r2)
as there are no friction losses, mechanical energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_{f}
mg h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r²) (1)
h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + I_{cm} / mr²)
for the moment of inertia of a basketball we can approximate it to a spherical shell
I_{cm} = ⅔ m r²
we substitute
h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + ⅔ mr² / mr²)
h = ½ v_{cm }^{2}/g 5/3
h = 5/6 v_{cm }^{2} / g
let's calculate
h = 5/6 6.1 2 / 9.8
h = 3.16 m
b) this part of the exercise we solve the speed of equation 1
v_{cm }^{2} = 2m gh / (1 + I_{cm} / r²)
in this case the object is a frozen juice container, which we can simulate a solid cylinder with moment of inertia
I_{cm} = ½ m r²
we substitute
v_{cm } = √ [2gh / (1 + ½)]
v_{cm } = √(4/3 gh)
let's calculate
v_{cm } = √ (4/3 9.8 3.16)
v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s
