Yes, parallax affects the precision of a measurement that you make. It introduces an error in the order of the parallax. It will cause the measurement to be different from the real answer. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Parallax is the effect caused when there is an error in observing a reading. This is caused due to the variation of line of sight of the observer.

Precision refers to the variability of the readings being taken. If the readings are close to one another then the readings are precise and if the readings are not close to one another then the readings are not precise.

Parallax may cause the readings not to close therefore affecting the precision.

Planets in our solar system do not revolve around the sun in perfect circles. Their orbits are more like ovals that scientists describe as elliptical. It is one of Kepler's laws. The sun is the focus of all the planets. The correct answer is D.

A truck traveling at a velocity of 33m/s comes to a halt by decelerating at 11m/s^2. How far does the truck travel in the proces

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The truck was moving 16.5 m/s during the time it took to stop, which was 3 seconds.

Initial velocity = 33 m/s

Final velocity = 0 m/s

Average velocity = (33 + 0) / 2 m/s = 16.5 m/s

Explanation:

First, how long does it take the truck to come to a complete stop?

( 33 m/s ) / ( 11 m / s^2 ) = 3 seconds

Then we can look at the average velocity between when the truck started decelerating and when it came to a complete stop. Because the deceleration is constant (always 11m/s^2) we can use this trick.
