Answer:

Reliability can be estimated by comparing different versions of the same measurement. Validity is harder to assess, but it can be estimated by comparing the results to other relevant data or theory.

Rachel has been reading her physics book. She takes her weighing scales into an elevator and stands on them. If her normal weigh

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

345 N

Explanation:

Given:

Normal weight of Rachel (mg) = 690 N

Case 1: Upward motion of elevator

Given:

Acceleration of elevator (a) = 0.25 g

The scale reading is given by the normal force acting on Rachel. Let N₁ be the normal force.

So, the net force acting on Rachel is given as:

$F_{net}=N_1-mg=N_1-690$

Now, from Newton's second law:

$F_{net}=ma\\\\N_1-690=m\times 0.25g\\\\N_1-690=0.25\times (mg)\\\\N_1-690=0.25\times 690\\\\N_1=690+172.5=862.5\ N------(1)$

Case 2: Downward motion of elevator

Given:

Acceleration of elevator (a) = 0.25 g

The scale reading is given by the normal force acting on Rachel. Let N₂ be the normal force.

So, the net force acting on Rachel is given as:

$F_{net}=mg-N_2=690-N_2$

Now, from Newton's second law:

$F_{net}=ma\\\\690-N_2=m\times 0.25g\\\\690-N_2=0.25\times (mg)\\\\690-N_2=0.25\times 690\\\\N_2=690-172.5=517.5\ N------(2)$

Now, the difference in the scale reading is obtained by subtracting equation (2) from equation (1). This gives,

$Difference=N_1-N_2=862.5-517.5=345\ N$

Therefore, the difference between the up and down scale readings is 345 N.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!? I NEED HELP PLEASE!!

Dmitry [639]

The first one is decreases because there are less molecules in the air.
The second on would be the last option, August 29, because a new moon occurs every 29 days.
The answer for the last one would be A, I presume, because when air masses arrive at a destination, it becomes dry.

Who ever answers all these questions they"ll get brain list How exactly did life begin? ... Why do we dream? ... Is there a patt

Ronch [10]

Answer: 1.

The earliest known life-forms are putative fossilized microorganisms, found in hydrothermal vent precipitates, that may have lived as early as 4.28 Gya (billion years ago), relatively soon after the oceans formed 4.41 Gya, and not long after the formation of the Earth 4.54 Gya.

2.There are many theories about why we dream, but no one knows for sure. Some researchers say dreams have no purpose or meaning. Others say we need dreams for our mental, emotional, and physical health. or

Most dreaming occurs during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, which we cycle through periodically during the night. Sleep studies show our brainwaves are almost as active during REM cycles as they are when we're awake. Experts believe the brainstem generates REM sleep and the forebrain generates dreams.

3.A clear rule determines exactly what makes a prime: it's a whole number that can't be exactly divided by anything except 1 and itself. But there's no discernable pattern in the occurrence of the primes. ... That's because after the number 5, there are only four possibilities — 1, 3, 7 and 9 — for prime last digits

4.There are no cures for any kinds of cancer, but there are treatments that may cure you. Many people are treated for cancer, live out the rest of their life, and die of other causes. Many others are treated for cancer and still die from it, although treatment may give them more time: even years or decades.

5.humans can't hop into a time machine and go back in time,

6.Our universe may be one of many, physicists say. The universe we live in may not be the only one out there. In fact, our universe could be just one of an infinite number of universes making up a "multiverse." Though the concept may stretch credulity, there's good physics behind it.

7.Consciousness is everything you experience. It is the tune stuck in your head, the sweetness of chocolate mousse, the throbbing pain of a toothache, the fierce love for your child and the bitter knowledge that eventually all feelings will end.

To solve this problem we will use the mathematical definition of the light years in metric terms, from there, through the kinematic equations of motion we will find the distance traveled as a function of the speed in proportion to the elapsed time. Therefore we have to
