The least count of stopwatch is 0.2s.The time of 20 oscillations of a pendulum was measured to be 25s.Find the percentage error

in the measurement of time​
Physics

Answer:

0.8%

Explanation:

We are given;

Number of oscillations; n = 20

Time taken; t = 25 s

Formula for period of oscillation;

T = t/n = 25/20 = 1.25 s

We are told that the least count is 0.2 s. Thus, error is; ΔT = 0.2 s

percentage error in the measurement of time is given by;

(0.2/(20 × 1.25)) × 100% = 0.8%

"A hole is punched in a full milk carton, 10 cm below the top. What is the initial velocity of outflow?"
lesya692 [45]
P 1 = 101,325 Pa (atmospheric pressure)
Milk has almost same density as water: (Rho)= 1,000 kg /m³ 
P 2 = 101,325 Pa + 1,000 kg/m³ · 9.81 m/s² · 0.1 m = 102,306 Pa
The hydrostatic equation:
P 1 + (Rho)v1² / 2 = P 2 + (Rho)·g·h2
101,325 + 1,000 v1²/2  = 102,306 + 1000 · 9.81 · 0.1
500 v 1² = 102,306 + 981 - 101,325
v 1² = 3.924
v 1 = √ 3.924
v 1 = 1.98 m/s
The initial velocity of outflow is 1.98 m/s.

A heat engine (Power Cycle) with a thermal efficiency of 35 percent efficiency produces 750 kJ of work. Heat transfer to the eng
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

a) The schematic illustrating is attached

b) The heat transfer to the heat engine is 2142.86 kJ, the heat transfer from the heat engine is 1392.86 kJ

c) The heat transfer to the heat engine is 1648.35 kJ, the heat transfer from the heat engine is 898.35 kJ

Explanation:

b) The heat transfer to the engine and the heat transfer from the engine to the air is:

Q_{1} =\frac{W}{n}

Where

W = 750 kJ

n = 35% = 0.25

Replacing:

Q_{1} =\frac{750}{0.35} =2142.86kJ

Q_{2} =Q_{1} -W=2142.86-750=1392.86kJ

c) The efficiency of Carnot engine is:

n=1-\frac{300K}{550K} =0.455

The heat transfer to the heat engine is:

Q_{1c} =\frac{750}{0.455} =1648.35kJ

The heat transfer from the heat engine is:

Q_{2c} =1648.35-750=898.35kJ

21. A person standing 49.5m from the foot of a cliff claps his hands and hears an echo 0.3
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

330 m/s

Explanation:

The sound wave has to travel TO the cliff AND back = 2 * 49.5 = 99 m

magnitude of velocity =  distance / time = 99m / .3 s = 330 m/s

What mass of silver will occupy a volume of 87.75 mL?<br>The density of silver is 10.49 g/mL.​
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The mass of silver that will occupy a volume of 87.75 mL is 920.5 grams.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space. In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance. Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

So the density of silver is 10.49 g / mL indicates that 10.49 g occupies a volume of 1 mL. Then a rule of three can be applied in the following way: if in 1 mL a mass of 10.49 g is occupied, in 87.75 mL how much mass will it occupy?

mass=\frac{87.75 mL*10.49 g}{1 mL}

mass= 920.5 g

<u><em> The mass of silver that will occupy a volume of 87.75 mL is 920.5 grams.</em></u>
