Please help me with the following question:

Physics
1 answer:

Answer: a. 667N

b. 665N

c. 54.5N

Explanation:

a) on the surface of the earth

W = mg

W = 68 × 9.81

= 667N

b) at the top of Everest (8848 m above sea level).

W =mg × R²/(R + H)²

W = 667 × [6378²/(6378 + 8.848)²

W = 665N

c) has 2 1/2 times the radius of the earth

W = mg × R²/(R + H)²

W = 667 × R²/(R + 2.5R)²

W = 54.5N

For no apparent reason, a poodle is running at a constant speed of 5.00 m/s in a circle with radius 2.9 m . Let v⃗ 1 be the velo
Nostrana [21]

At a constant speed of 5.00 m/s, the speed at which the poodle completes a full revolution is

\left(5.00\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)\left(\dfrac{1\,\mathrm{rev}}{2\pi(2.9\,\mathrm m)}\right)\approx0.2744\,\dfrac{\mathrm{rev}}{\mathrm s}

so that its period is T=3.644\,\frac{\mathrm s}{\mathrm{rev}} (where 1 revolution corresponds exactly to 360 degrees). We use this to determine how much of the circular path the poodle traverses in each given time interval with duration \Delta t. Denote by \theta the angle between the velocity vectors (same as the angle subtended by the arc the poodle traverses), then

\Delta t=0.4\,\mathrm s\implies\dfrac{3.644\,\mathrm s}{360^\circ}=\dfrac{0.4\,\mathrm s}\theta\implies\theta\approx39.56^\circ

\Delta t=0.2\,\mathrm s\implies\dfrac{3.644\,\mathrm s}{360^\circ}=\dfrac{0.2\,\mathrm s}\theta\implies\theta\approx19.78^\circ

\Delta t=7\times10^{-2}\,\mathrm s\implies\dfrac{3.644\,\mathrm s}{360^\circ}=\dfrac{7\times10^{-2}\,\mathrm s}\theta\implies\theta\approx6.923^\circ

We can then compute the magnitude of the velocity vector differences \Delta\vec v for each time interval by using the law of cosines:

|\Delta\vec v|^2=|\vec v_1|^2+|\vec v_2|^2-2|\vec v_1||\vec v_2|\cos\theta

\implies|\Delta\vec v|=\begin{cases}3.384\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}&\text{for }\Delta t=0.4\,\mathrm s\\1.718\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}&\text{for }\Delta t=0.2\,\mathrm s\\0.6038\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}&\text{for }\Delta t=7\times10^{-2}\,\mathrm s\end{cases}

and in turn we find the magnitude of the average acceleration vectors to be

\implies|\vec a|=\begin{cases}8.460\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}&\text{for }\Delta t=0.4\,\mathrm s\\8.588\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}&\text{for }\Delta t=0.2\,\mathrm s\\8.625\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}&\text{for }\Delta t=7\times10^{-2}\,\mathrm s\end{cases}

So that takes care of parts A, C, and E. Unfortunately, without knowing the poodle's starting position, it's impossible to tell precisely in what directions each average acceleration vector points.

Using the rules for significant figures, what do you get when you subtract 15.54 from 508.9538? A. 493 B. 493.4 C. 493.41 D. 493
IceJOKER [234]

You get 493.41 when you subtract 15.54 from 508.953 using the rules for significant figures.

 

For addition and subtraction, look at the decimal portion (i.e., to the right of the decimal point) of the numbers ONLY. Here is what to do:

1) Count the number of significant figures in the decimal portion of each number in the problem. (The digits to the left of the decimal place are not used to determine the number of decimal places in the final answer.)

2) Add or subtract in the normal fashion.

3) Round the answer to the LEAST number of places in the decimal portion of any number in the problem.

 

 

The correct answer between all the choices given is the third choice or letter C. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.

Which of the following are characteristics of good experimental design? Check all that apply.
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Allows scientists to replicate experiments

2. Tests only one variable at a time

3. Plans how to record data so they can be published

Explanation:

A scientific experiment is performed to test the hypothesis which represents the limited explanation of the phenomenon.

The experiment is designed in a way that it test one variable at a time like the growth of plants. The experiment must be designed in a way that it can be replicated to reduce the error and repeated by other scientific persons to support the experiment. The design includes the plan for recording the results as it is one of the steps of the scientific method.

Thus, the selected options are the correct answer.

Controlled experiment is the type of experiment that involves changing only one variable at a time. Controlled experiment is subtly defined as an experiment which holds everything constant except one particular variable. This type of experiment allows only one variable to ever change at a given time
