All recorded measurements require a number followed by a _______ .

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: unit

Jusitification:

An plain number does not inform the real meaning of the measure if you do not inform the unit of measurement.

Without the unit you cannot tell the real magnitude of objects or phenomena measured.

For example, suppose that some one asks how long is a boat and the answer is 20. What is it? 20 meters? 20 feet? 20 yards? You do not really know if it is a big boat or a small one until you inform the unit of measurement.

The same is true with any measurement. If you measure volumen you have to tell is the number reported is galon, liters, cubic centimeter, mililiter, cubir meter, or what.

A stubborn, 100 kgkg mule sits down and refuses to move. To drag the mule to the barn, the exasperated farmer ties a rope around

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

No, the farmer is not able to move the mule.

Explanation:

Mass =100 kg

Force=F=800 N

The coefficient between the mule and the ground= $\mu_s=0.8$

$\mu_k=0.5$

Static friction force,f= $\mu N$

Normal force=N=mg

Static friction force,f= $\mu_s mg=0.8\times 100\times 9.8=784 N$

Using $g=9.8m/s^2$

F<f

Static friction force is greater than applied force.

Therefore , the farmer is not able to move the mule.

100 points! please help!!!

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

A plane flies due north (90° from east) with a velocity of 100 km/h for 2 hours.

With no wind, it will be 100*2 = 200 km north of its starting point.

But a steady wind blows southeast at 30 km/h at an angle of 315° from due east.

So the wind itself will blow the plane 30*2 = 60km at an angle of 315° from due east.

That is the same as 60*cos315° = 42.43km due east and 60*sin315° = -42.43km north.

Combining, the plane is at 42.43km due east and 200-42.43 = 157.57km due north from its starting point.

Two forces and are applied to an object whose mass is 13.3 kg. The larger force is . When both forces point due east, the object

ANEK [815]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, It's important to remember F = ma, and in this problem m = 13.3 kg

This can be reduced to a simple system of equations problem. Now if they are both going the same way then we add them, while if they are going the opposite way we subtract them. So let's call them F1 and F2, with F1 arger than F2. Now, When we add them together F1+F2 = (.723 m/s^2)*13.3kg and then when we subtract them, and have the larger one pushing toward the east, let's call F1 the larger one, F1-F2 = (.493 m/s^2)*13.3kg.

Can you solve this system of equations seeing them like this, or do you need more help?

what happens to the current in a circuit if the resitance of the components in the circuit is increased

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The current decreases.

Explanation:

Current and resistance are inversely proportional. The equation connecting current, resistance and voltage is $V = IR$ , where V is voltage, I is current and R is resistance.

Rearranging this equation, you get:

$I = \frac{V}{R}$

and

$R = \frac{V}{I}$

If the value of voltage in both equations remains constant, and the value of R decreases, the value of I will increase. Conversely, if in the second equation $R = \frac{V}{I}$ , the value of V remains constant the value of I decreases, then the value of R, resistance will increase.

Thus, it can be seen that the current will decrease as resistance increases and vice versa.
