9. According to statistical theory, 68% of your measurements of time should fall within the range of and of therefore about 3 of

your 5 measurements should satisfy this condition. How many of your measurements fall within this range? Are your errors random according to this theory?

Nady [450]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, this is a random error generating because of statistical constraint. We only have finite number of data points. As per this, if we plot our observation we will get a gaussian (inverse bell ) shaped curve with mean equal to central value.

A steam engine takes in superheated steam at 270 °C and discharges condensed steam from its cylinder at 50 °C. The engine has an
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

b) 20 kJ

Explanation:

Efficiency of carnot engine = (T₁ - T₂ ) / T₁  Where T₁ is temperature of hot source  and T₂ is temperature of sink .

T₁ = 270 + 273 = 543K

T₂ = 50 + 273 = 323 K

Putting the given values of temperatures

efficiency = (543 - 323) / 543

= .405

heat input = 50 KJ

efficiency = output work / input heat energy

.405 = output work / 50

output work = 20.25 KJ.

= 20 KJ .

A small plane flies 40.0 km in a direction 60° north of east and then flies 30.0 km in a direction 15° north of east. Use the an
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

d= 64.7 km

\theta = 40.9^{o}

displacement vector=r_xi + r_yj =  48.9i + 42.4j

Explanation:

total distance = 40 + 30 = 70 km

during 1st flight

r_1 x = 40*cos60

r_1 x = 20 km

r_1 y = 40*sin60

r_1 y = 34.64 km

during 2nd flight

r_2 x = 30*cos15

r_2 x = 28.9 km

r_2 y = 30*sin15

r_2 y = 7.76 km

the two component of r are:

r_x = r_1x + r_2x = 20 + 28.9 = 48.9 km

r_y = r_1y + r_2y = 34.64 + 7.76 = 42.4 km

Geographical Direction \theta = tan^{-1}\frac{r_y}{r_x} [tex]\theta = 40.9^{o}

Displacement d= \sqrt{r_x^2 + r_y^2}

                     d = \sqrt{48.9^2+42.4^2} = 64.7 km

d= 64.7 km

displacement vector=r_xi + r_yj =  48.9i + 42.4j

A heating coil inside an electric kettle delivers 2.2 kW of electrical power to the water in the kettle. How long will it take t
Otrada [13]

Answer:

0.04s

Explanation:

Specific heat of water c = 4.186J/g.C

The heat energy it would take to heat up 0.5 kg of water from 30C to 72 C is

E = mc\Delta T = 0.5 * 4.186 * (72 - 30) = 87.9 J

If the power of the electric kettle is 2.2kW (or 2200W) and suppose the work efficiency is 100%, then the time it takes to transfer that power is

t = \frac{E}{P} = \frac{87.9}{2200} = 0.04 s

Is it possible for you to take a hike and have the distance you cover be equal to the magnitude of your displacement?
kow [346]

Distance can be equal to displacement ... if the motion is all in a straight line ... but distance can never be greater than displacement.
