A car that is standing still accelerates up a hill with a slope of 6.4% at an average acceleration of 2.93 ft/s^2. The hill is 1

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

213 s

Explanation:

Slope is the ratio of change in vertical distance to change in horizontal distance.

Slope = vertical height / horizontal height

Therefore:

6.4% = vertical height / 12.42

vertical height = 6.4% * 12.42

vertical height = 0.8 miles

The distance travelled by the car (s) is:

s² = 0.8² + 12.42²

s² = 154.9

s = 12.45 miles

Acceleration (a) = 2.93 ft/s^2 = 0.00055 mile/s²

initial velocity (u) = 0, final velocity = 203 mph

Using:

s = ut + 0.5at²

12.45 = 0.5(0.00055)t²

t =213 s

What, roughly, is the percent uncertainty in the volume of a spherical beach ball whose radius is 5.66 0.09 m?

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

4.77 %

Explanation:

We know that the volume V for a sphere of radius r is

$V(r) = \frac{4}{3} \ \pi \ r^3$

If we got an uncertainty $\Delta r$ the formula for the uncertainty of V is:

$\Delta V(r) = \sqrt{ (\frac{dV}{dr} \Delta r)^2 }$

We can calculate this uncertainty, first we obtain the derivative:

$\frac{dV}{dr} = 3 * \frac{4}{3} \ \pi \ r^2$

$\frac{dV}{dr} = 4 \ \pi \ r^2$

And using it in the formula:

$\Delta V(r) = \sqrt{ (4 \ \pi \ r^2\Delta r)^2 }$

$\Delta V(r) = \sqrt{ 4^2 \ \pi^2 \ r^4 \Delta r^2 }$

$\Delta V(r) = 4 \ \pi \ r^2 \Delta r$

The relative uncertainty is:

$\frac{\Delta V(r)}{V(r)}$

$\frac{ 4 \ \pi \ r^2 \Delta r }{ \frac{4}{3} \ \pi \ r^3}$

$\frac{ 3 \Delta r }{ r}$

Using the values for the problem:

$\frac{ 3 * 0.09 m }{ 5.66 m} = 0.0477$

This is, a percent uncertainty of 4.77 %

Explain how a common housecat gets “worms.”eplain(science)

OLga [1]

Answer:

Cats most commonly contract worms after coming into contact with parasite eggs or infected feces. A cat may walk through an area with eggs or infected feces, and since cats are often such fastidious groomers, they will then ingest the eggs or fecal particles as they clean their fur and feet.
