Answer:

The measurement which is the most precise is 104.6 °C.

Explanation:

The measurement which is most precise must be very close to the actual value of the temperature.

Thus, the unit which have less value of the |Δx| (error) must be most precise.

Thus,

Actual value = 105.1 °C

Value = 103.7 °C

<u>|Δx| = 1.4 °C</u>

Value = 108.4 °C

<u>|Δx| = 3.3 °C</u>

Value = 105.8 °C

<u>|Δx| = 0.7 °C</u>

Value = 104.6 °C

<u>|Δx| = 0.5 °C</u>

<u>Thus, The measurement which is the most precise is 104.6 °C.</u>

In some plants, the pistils don’t Form until a few days after the stamens do.How might this keep a plant from self pollinating
KATRIN_1 [288]

For a flower to be pollinated, pollen from an anther (which is located at the top of the stamen) needs to reach a stigma (at the top of the pistle.) Some plants are genetically capable of pollinating themselves if their own pollen reaches their own stigma; some plants are not capable of self pollination under any circumstances.

For plants that can genetically self pollinate, but would prefer not to, they can avoid this by having their pistil and pollen/stamens mature at different times. If the stamens mature first, the pollen will be dispersed by animals or wind or whatever dispersal mechanism it relies on. Then by the time the pistil is ready to be pollinated, there is no pollen left in that flower to land on the stigma.

Flasher units are being discussed. Technician A says that only a DOT-approved flasher unit should be used for turn signals. Tech
zmey [24]

Answer: C

Both Technicians A and B

Explanation:

Only a DOT-approved flasher unit should be used for turn signals. And a parallel (variable-load) flasher will function for turn signal usage, although it will not warn the driver if a bulb burns out.

A 2000 kg car slams on the brakes and slows down at a rate of -10 m/s2. How much force are the brakes applying?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

-20,000N

Explanation:

Force (N) = mass (kg) x acceleration (m/s²)

So,

Force = 2000 x -10

= -20,000N (Newtons)

A 55 kg person falling with a velocity of 0.6
siniylev [52]

Answer:

What are we supposed to find, if it is kinetic energy then this is the solution.

K.E=1/2mv^2

K.E= kinetic energy

M=mass

V=velocity

K.E =0.5*55*0.6^2

K.E=9.9J

Why does it takes a long time to heat a room with a high ceiling?
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

High ceilings make a room feel large and open, but they can be difficult to cool and heat. Because hot air rises, the challenge becomes trying to keep the hot air where you want it and preventing if from being wasted where you don't.
