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.

The 94-lb force P is applied to the 220-lb crate, which is stationary before the force is applied. Determine the magnitude and d
Makovka662 [10]

Answer

given,

force = 94 lb

weight of crate = 220 lb

Assuming the static friction be equal = 0.47

                       kinetic friction = 0.36

Maximum force applied to move the object is when object is just start to move.

F = μ N

F = 0.47 x 220

F = 103.4 lb

As the frictional force is more than applied then the object will not move.

so, the friction force will be equal to the force applied on the object that is equal to 94 lb.

hence, the direction of force will left.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

(A) FM Radio had a somewhat shorter ranger than AM radio, but better sound quality.

Explanation:

FM Radio was invented in 1933 by Edwin Armstrong who was an American engineer. FM stands for frequency modulation and AM stands for Amplitude Modulation.

FM is used for most broadcasts of music and FM radio stations use a very high-frequency range of radio frequencies.

In FM Radio, the sound is transmitted through changes in frequency. Both FM and AM radio signals experience frequent change in amplitude, they are far less noticeable on FM.

When switching between stations, FM antenna is alternating between different frequencies, and not amplitudes and this produces a much clearer sound and allows for smoother transitions with little to no audible static.

FM signals can be interfered by barriers and this could affect the signal strength. FM Radio signals are more clearer in a mountainous area that has no barrier.

AM radio was able to carry signals farther than AM radio.
