Answer:

So we have a measure in grams, we can start with something like:

143.523 grams.

Now we want this measurement to be precise to the nearest tenth of a gram.

The nearest tenth of a gram is the first digit after the decimal point, then the digits that come after this are not useful, because they are outside our precision range.

Then we must write our measurement as:

143.5 grams

Where the digit that came after the 5 was a 2, so we rounded down.

What is a concave lens?

ozzi

A concave lens is a lens that has at least one of its surfaces or both surfaces curved inwards. Due to this reason, this lens diverges the light that falls on it and hence is also called a diverging lens. The concave lens is thinner in the middle compared to its edges. These are used in flashlights, binoculars, telescopes, etc.

A spring has a spring constant of 20 N/m. How much potential energy is stored in the spring as it stretched 0.20 m

makkiz [27]

The elastic potential energy (Ep) is given by $Ep = \frac{1}{2}*k*x^2$

Data:
Ep = ? (Joule)
k = 20 N/m
x (displacement) = 0.20 m

Solving:
$Ep = \frac{1}{2}*k*x^2$
$Ep = \frac{1}{2}*20*0.20^2$
$Ep = \frac{20*0.04}{2}$
$Ep = \frac{0.8}{2}$
$\boxed{\boxed{Ep = 0.4\:J}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Answer:

The Forces of Flight

At any given time, there are four forces acting upon an aircraft.

These forces are lift, weight (or gravity), drag and thrust. Lift is

the key aerodynamic force that keeps objects in the air. It is the

force that opposes weight; thus, lift helps to keep an aircraft in

the air. Weight is the force that works vertically by pulling all

objects, including aircraft, toward the center of the Earth. In order
