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.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

a = 9.86 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

distance between the centers of wheel = 156 cm

center of mass of motorcycle including rider = 77.5 cm

horizontal acceleration of motor cycle = ?

now,

The moment created by the wheels must equal the moment created by gravity.

take moment about wheel as it touches the ground, here we will take horizontal distance between them.

then, take the moment around the center of mass. Since the force on the ground from the wheels is horizontal, we need the vertical distance.

now equating both the moment

m g d = F h

d is the horizontal distance

h is the vertical distance

m g d = m a h

term of mass get eliminated

g d = a h

so,

$a = \dfrac{g\ d}{h}$

$a = \dfrac{9.8\times 0.78}{0.775}$

a = 9.86 m/s²

A circular parallel plate capacitor is constructed with a radius of 0.52 mm, a plate separation of 0.013 mm, and filled with an

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

289282

Explanation:

r = Radius of plate = 0.52 mm

d = Plate separation = 0.013 mm

A = Area = $\pi r^2$

V = Potential applied = 2 mV

k = Dielectric constant = 40

$\epsilon_0$ = Electric constant = $8.854\times 10^{-12}\ \text{F/m}$

Capacitance is given by

$C=\dfrac{k\epsilon_0A}{d}$

Charge is given by

$Q=CV\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{k\epsilon_0AV}{d}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{40\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times\pi \times (0.52\times 10^{-3})^2\times 2\times 10^{-3}}{0.013\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow Q=4.6285\times 10^{-14}\ \text{C}$

Number of electron is given by

$n=\dfrac{Q}{e}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{4.6285\times 10^{-14}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}\\\Rightarrow n=289281.25\ \text{electrons}$

The number of charge carriers that will accumulate on this capacitor is approximately 289282.
