Estimate the order of magnitude of the length, in

1 answer:

8 0

A) a mouse, to an order of magnitude = 0.1 m ( a tenth of a meter ) That would be a big mouse but the alternatives are 1 meter or one hundredth of a meter... so go with 1/10th

b) Easy = 1 meter 

c) two choices 10m or 100 m . Go with 100 m 

d) Stretch it out , trunk tip to tail tip - call it 10 m 

e) Your choice 100 m or 1000 m..... These are estimates. So long as you are within one order of magnitude you can't really be given wrong. So I'd say 100m

Which expression of distance uses SI units? A. 30 miles B. 16 kilograms C. 24 feet D. 500 meters

Stella [2.4K]

Hi!

SI units are physical measurements which will be in the form of kilograms, second, kelvin, metres, etc.

Since kilograms measure the weight of an object, it is out. Miles and feet are not SI units, so they are also out. This only leaves one answer left!

Hopefully, this helps! =)

A swimmer bounces almost straight up from a diving board and falls vertically feet first into a pool.she starts with a speed of

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

a) 1.20227 seconds

b) 0.98674 m

c) 7.3942875 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 4.4 m/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=4.4-9.81\times t\\\Rightarrow \frac{-4.4}{-9.81}=t\\\Rightarrow t=0.44852\ s$

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=4.4\times 0.44852+\frac{1}{2}\times -9.81\times 0.44852^2\\\Rightarrow s=0.98674\ m$

b) Her highest height above the board is 0.98674 m

Total height she would fall is 0.98674+1.8 = 2.78674 m

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2.78674=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2.78674\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.75375\ s$

a) Her feet are in the air for 0.75375+0.44852 = 1.20227 seconds

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+9.81\times 0.75375\\\Rightarrow v=7.3942875\ m/s$

c) Her velocity when her feet hit the water is 7.3942875 m/s

Which statement describes why scientific notation is useful? It makes very small numbers into whole numbers. It converts fractio

disa [49]

It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier.

Scientific notation is a system used in order to It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier. It is useful as it allows very large number that would take a lot of space to write otherwise, and it allows them to be calculated easier. $10^{23}$ for example is a incredible large number, but written in this form is immediately understandable and useful for calculation.
