Answer: No

Explanation:

Length= 2cm= 20mm

Now meter stick can read to nearest millimeter.

It is given that length is to be measured with a precision of 1% of 20mm= 1/100 * 20= 0.2mm

Since the least count is 1mm of meter stick and precision required is less than that. So, meter stick cannot be used for this, travelling microscope can be used for this as it can read to 0.1mm.

Elis [28]

Answer:

d). a and c

Explanation:

According to Pascal's law, when force is applied to a fluid, the pressure will increase equally in all direction of the container. Pascal law says that the pressure is transmitted undiminised in all direction inside a closed container. And the pressure inside the closed container is constant when measured at the same height above the datum.

Hence option d is correct.

Analysis of the relationship between the fuel economy​ (mpg) and engine size​ (in liters) for 35 models of cars produces the reg
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The slope of -3.824 means that if we increase engine size by 1 unit, the mpg will decrease by 3.824 units

Explanation:

mpg=36.91−3.824•Engine size

Writing as y=mx+c then

mpg=−3.824•Engine size+36.91

Where mpy represent y, -3.824 represent m, engine size represent x and 36.91 represent c

Since from the equation y=mx+c m is the slope and c is the y-intercept, therefore,

The slope of -3.824 means that if we increase engine size by 1 unit, the mpg will decrease by 3.824 units

What is the standard half-cell potential for the oxidation of methane under acidic conditions? The reaction for methane is as fo
Yuri [45]

Answer:

The element that is oxidized is carbon.

Its oxidation state increased. It increased from -4 to +4

Explanation:

Oxidation is a process that involves increase in oxidation number.

The oxidation number of carbon in CH4 is -4

C + (1×4) = 0

C + 4 = 0

C = 0 - 4 = -4

The oxidation number of carbon in CO2 is +4

C + (2×-2) = 0

C - 4 = 0

C = 0+4 = 4

Increase in the oxidation number of carbon from -4 to +4 means carbon is oxidized
