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>

The velocity vector of an object with a centripetal acceleration is never tangent to the circular path.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

<em>The velocity vector of an object with a centripetal acceleration is never tangent to the circular path is False.</em>

Answer: <em>False</em>

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is a feature of objects in uniform circular motion. In that case velocity is along the tangent drawn to the circular path. For an object to be called accelerating its velocity should be variable but speed needn’t.  

Even when the speed is constant an object can be accelerating. The direction of velocity of an object in uniform circular motion keeps changing  continuously. This change in velocity in uniform circular motion is equal to the centripetal acceleration.

Which best explains why elements with a completely full outer shell of electrons do not usually bond with other elements to form
Alla [95]

The best answer is C.

The stability of atoms depends on whether or not their outermost shell is filled with electrons. If the outer shell is filled with electrons, the atom is stable and therefore they do not need to react  with other elements to become stable.

On the other hand, atoms with unfilled outer shells are unstable, and will usually form chemical bonds with other atoms to achieve stability. To achieve stability, atoms will form two types of chemical  bonds called ionic bonds and covalent bonds.

A positively charged particle initially at rest on the ground accelerated upward to 100m/s in 2.00s. If the particle has a charg
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The initial velocity is  u  =  100 m/s

       The time taken is  t = 2.0 s

       The charge to mass ratio is  Q/m  =  0.100 C/kg

       

Generally the acceleration is mathematically evaluated as

              a  =   \frac{u}{t }

substituting values  

               a =   \frac{100}{2}

                a =  50 \ m/s^2

The electric field is mathematical represented as

             E = \frac{(a+g)}{Q/m}

substituting values

              E = \frac{(50+9.8)}{0.100}

              E = 598 \ N/C

Can a falling object reach terminal velocity in outer space?
Triss [41]

Answer:

There is no gravity in outer space so how will any object fall in the first place

Also the principle of terminal velocity is limited to free fall where the acceleration is equal to the gravity of the planet
