In order to have a verified or reliable answer to this question, they should take the watch apart and test the mechanism to see what causes failure.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

For dropping a similar watch to record results, we need to buy another one. So, it becomes expensive. And, calling the manufacturer will give accurate results, but no knowledge. It is like getting multiple choices by luck.

Consulting senior faculty won’t result in any progress, because they may not have conducted these. So, one should rip off the watch, and study the mechanism, and its limitations.  The testing of mechanism gives the actual results.

Answer: B) Drop a similar watch multiple times and record the results.

Explanation:

In order to have a verified or reliable answer to this question, investigators must drop a similar watch multiple times and record the results. By doing this and repeatedly getting the same result(s), they are able to determine that their answer is in fact true.

When temperature decreases but actual water vapor content remains the same, what happens to relative humidity?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

d. Relative humidity increases.

Explanation:

The expression of relative humidity in terms of absolute humidity, absolute pressure and saturation pression at measured temperature is:

\phi = \frac{\omega \cdot P}{(0.622+\omega)\cdot P_{sat}}

When temperature decreases, the saturation pressure decreases also and, consequently, relative humidity increases. Therefore, the right answer is option D.

Two pure tones are sounded together. The drawing shows the pressure variations of the two sound waves, measured with respect to
amm1812

Answer:

4.13Hz

Explanation:

f1 = 1/t1 = 1/0.022 = 45.45 Hz

f2 = 1/t2 = 1/0.0242= 41.32 Hz

No. of beats

= 45.45- 41.32

~ 4.13Hz

If the Earth and distant stars were stationary (motionless) in space, what would we observe about the wavelength from these star
dangina [55]
1) In the first case, the correct answer is
<span>A.Wavelengths measured would match the actual wavelengths emitted.
In fact, the stars are not moving relative to Earth, so there is no shift in the measured wavelength.

2) In this second case, the correct answer is
</span><span>A.Wavelengths measured would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted.
</span>in fact, since the stars in this case are moving towards the Earth, then apparent frequency of their emitted light will be larger than the actual frequency, because of the Doppler effect, according to the formula:
f'= \frac{c}{c+v_s} f_0
where f0 is the actual frequency, f' the apparent frequency, c the speed of light and vs the velocity of the source (the stars) relative to the obsever (Earth). Vs is negative when the source is moving towards the observer, so the apparent frequency f' is larger than the actual frequency f0. But the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency, so the apparent wavelength will be shorter than the actual wavelength.
