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%

If i punch my self and it will hurt am i weak or strong
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

You're strong.

Explanation:

I've been thinking of this for quite a while, and I realized that your body has a certain limit to how much pain it can take. So, punching yourself extremely hard will cause pain, because that's your body's reaction to immense pressure being put on it. But, the fact that you punched yourself so hard that it hurts, shows that you are capable of applying so much pressure; therefore, you are strong.
