Explanation:

The cations and anions are locked tightly into place because of the attraction of their opposite charges - as a result, it's difficult to move the ions and the material is very hard.

Four research teams measured the rotation period of a newly detected neutron star, and what each team wrote in its team notebook
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct measurement is .710 s which is equal to .71 s so second measurement that is 0.71 s is most accurate measurement .

B.  0.71s is the most accurate .

Precision depends upon measuring instrument . Measurement by highly precise instrument has greater precision .

The measurement of 0.75 ± 0.002s must have been taken from high precise instrument because it is capable of making measurement upto 3 decimal points .

Hence

C 0.75 ± 0.002s is most precise measurement .

<h3>What are scientific models?</h3>

The scientific models are those which is given by scientists to allow them to make prediction about anything particular on which they are working or making research for it some examples are plum pudding model for an atom and bohr's model of an atom etc.

The biggest advantage is that scientists do not have to check the given data which are written into books they can perform their experiment and can conclude the data by performing experiment.

Therefore, scientific models are used because they allow scientists to make predictions and make it easier for scientists to avoid using data. option A and C is correct.
