I think the correct answer would be the first option. Scientific models are used to allow scientists to extrapolate or interpolate data. Or in other words, allow them to predict values without performing more experiments. However, they are obtained by experiments first.

The sensitivity of a measuring instrument is the value of the smallest quantity that can be read or estimated with it. What is t
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The smallest part of a millimeter that can be read with a digital caliper with a four digit display is 0.02mm. Thus, it has to be converted to centimetre. So, divide by 10, we then have 0.02/10= *0.002cm* not mm.

A 5 kg ball rolling at 1.0 m/s hits a 15 kg ball at rest. The balls stick together after the collision What is the
Reika [66]

Answer:

0.25m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters

m₁  = 5kg

v₁ = 1.0m/s

m₂ = 15kg

v₂ = 0m/s

Unknown:

velocity after collision = ?

Solution:

Momentum before collision and after collision will be the same. For inelastic collision;

    m₁v₁ + m₂v₂  = v(m₁ + m₂)

Insert parameters and solve for v;

   5 x 1  + 15 x 0 = v (5 + 15 )

          5  = 20v

          v = \frac{5}{20}   = 0.25m/s

A steel cable has a cross-sectional area 4.49 × 10^-3 m^2 and is kept under a tension of 2.96 × 10^4 N. The density of steel is
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The transverse wave will travel with a speed of 25.5 m/s along the cable.

Explanation:

let T = 2.96×10^4 N be the tension in in the steel cable, ρ  = 7860 kg/m^3 is the density of the steel and A = 4.49×10^-3 m^2 be the cross-sectional area of the cable.

then, if V is the volume of the cable:

ρ = m/V

m = ρ×V

but V = A×L , where L is the length of the cable.

m = ρ×(A×L)

m/L = ρ×A

then the speed of the wave in the cable is given by:

v = √(T×L/m)

  = √(T/A×ρ)

  = √[2.96×10^4/(4.49×10^-3×7860)]

  = 25.5 m/s

Therefore, the transverse wave will travel with a speed of 25.5 m/s along the cable.
