You and your lab partner, Mel, are engrossed in a chemistry activity using beans to compute the average atomic mass of an elemen

t "beanium". You have three isotopes of beanium to measure. Using a triple beam balance, you find the mass of each isotope three times and then take an average. You and Mel compute an average mass for beanium of 8.93 grams and your percent error is 18%. Your teacher instructs you to try again and you end up with the same results. In fact, no matter how many times you try, your percent error is between 18 - 20%.
What is the MOST LIKELY source of error in this activity?

A) random error: Mel misreads the balance occassionally.
B) random error: You and Mel take turns reading the balance and do not read it to the same accuracy.
C) systematic error: The balance is not calibrated accurately, resulting in inaccurate measurements.
D) systematic error: Every now and then you or Mel stop to chat with your neighbors and lose track of what you are doing.

Answer:

C:

Explanation:

either C or A but A seems unlikely after multiple attempts. Although the question doesn't make it clear whether the balance is electric either way it could be wrong in someway and seems to be the most likely.

Considerando que você comece a caminhar em velocidade constante, inicialmente a 350 m de um ponto referencial escolhido. Você ca
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

a. S(t)=350−1t

Explanation:

To determine the equation of motion you take into account the general form of motion with constant velocity:

S(t)=S_o+vt    ( 1 )

So is the initial position from a specific reference frame. In this case is 350 m.

v is the speed of the motion, in this case is 1m/s. However, the motion is forward the zero point of the reference frame, hence, the speed is - 1m/s.

You replace the values of So and v in the equation ( 1 ) and you obtain:

S(t)=350-(1m/s)t

Hence, the answer is:

a. S(t)=350−1t

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Para determinar a equação do movimento, você leva em consideração a forma geral do movimento com velocidade constante:

             (1)

Assim é a posição inicial de um quadro de referência específico. Neste caso, é de 350 m.

v é a velocidade do movimento, neste caso é de 1m / s. No entanto, o movimento é avançar o ponto zero do quadro de referência, portanto, a velocidade é de - 1m / s.

Você substitui os valores de So ev na equação (1) e obtém:

Portanto, a resposta é:

uma. S (t) = 350-1t, movimento retrógrado

If the distance between two objects decreased, what would happen to the force of gravity between them?
evablogger [386]

Answer: A- It would increase

Explanation:

According to the law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}  

Where:  

F is the module of the attraction force exerted between both objects

G is the universal gravitation constant.  

m_{1} and m_{2} are the masses of both objects  

r is the distance between both objects

As we can see, the gravity force is directly proportional to the mass of the bodies or objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

In other words:

<h2>If we decrease the distance between both objects, the gravitational force between them will increase.  </h2>

Over 4 seconds, a car's momentum decreases by 1000 kg m/s how much force did it take to make this happen?
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

250N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time  = 4s

Momentum  = 1000kgm/s

Unknown:

Force  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use Newton's second law of motion;

      Ft  = Momentum

F is the force

t is the time

So;

          F x 4 = 1000kgm/s

          F  = 250N
