Your bedroom has a rectangular shape and you want to measure its size. You use a tape that is precise to 0.001 mm and find that

the shortest wall in the room is 3.547 mm long. The tape, however, is too short to measure the length of the second wall, so you use a second tape, which is longer but only precise to 0.01 mm. You measure the second wall to be 4.79. Which of the following numbers is the most precise estimate that you can obtain from your measurements for the area of your bedroom?
a. 30 m^2
b. 31.4 m^2
c. 31.37 m^2
d. 31.371 m^2

This question is in two parts. This is not the correct multiple choice options for this part a.

The second part had the option

b)If your bedroom has a circular shape, and its diameter measured 6.32 , which of the following numbers would be the most precise value for its area?

a)30 m^2

b) 31.4 m^2

c)31.37 m^2

d)31.371 m^2

Answer:

A. 17.0 m²

B. 31.4 m²

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the area of a rectangle is given as

Area = length x width

The length = 3.547 m

The width = 4.79 m

Then area = 3.547 x 4.79

= 16.990m²

When approximated = 17.0m²

This is the most precise measurement for the area of the bedroom.

B.

We solve b using this formula

Area = pi(diameter/2)^2

= 3.14(6.32/2)²

= 3.14 x 9.9856

= 31.4 m²

Calculate the momentum of a 1950 kg elephant charging a hunter at a speed of 7.50 m/s. (b) Compare the elephant's momentum with
prisoha [69]

Answer:

a) (momentum of the elephant), p1 = 14625 kg×m/s

b) p1 = 609.4×p2

c) (momentum of the hunter), p3 = 720 kg×m/s.

Explanation:

a) if m = 1950 kg is the mass of the elephant and V = 7.50 m/s be the speed of the elephant, then the momentum is given by:

p1 = m×V = (1950)×(7.50) = 14625 kg×m/s

b) if m = 0.0400 kg is the mass of the bullet and v = 600 m/s be the speed of the bullet, then the momentum of the bullet is given by:

p2 = m×v = (0.0400)×(600) = 24 kg.m/s

then:

p1/p2 = (14625)/(24) = 609.4

that is, p1 = 609.4×p2

Therefore, the momentum of the elephant is 609.4 times the momentum of the bullet.

c) the momentum og the hunter after missing the elephant is given by:

p3 = m×v = (90.0)×(8) = 720 kg.m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the hunter is 720 kg×m/s.

Determine the initial velocity of the ball if it reaches a height of 15 meters.
jasenka [17]

Answer:

the initial velocity of the  ball is 17.14 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

maximum height reached by the ball, h = 15 m

let the initial velocity of the ball = u

at maximum height, the final velocity of the ball is zero, v = 0

The initial velocity of the ball is calculated by using the following upward motion kinematic equation;

v² = u² - 2gh

0 = u² - 2(9.8 x 15)

u² = 294

u = √294

u = 17.14 m/s

Therefore, the initial velocity of the  ball is 17.14 m/s

How will you determine the direction<br>of a torque? Explain.​
asambeis [7]
You use the right hand rule. With your thumb out and the rest of your fingers curved ( like a thumbs up) curve your fingers to the direction of the torque. The direction your thumbs points at is the direction of the torque

1. What is the momentum of a 0.15 kg arrow that is traveling at 120 m/s?
Korvikt [17]

For this case we have that by definition, the momentum equation is given by:

p = m * v

Where:

m: It is the mass

v: It is the velocity

According to the data we have:

m = 0.15 \ kg\\v = 120 \frac {m} {s}

Substituting:

p = 0.15 * 120\\p = 18 \frac {kg * m} {s}

On the other hand, if we clear the variable "mass" we have:

m = \frac {p} {v}

According to the data we have:

p = 250 \frac {kg * m} {s}\\v = 5 \frac {m} {s}\\m = \frac {250} {5}\\m = 50 \ kg

Thus, the mass is 50 \ kg

Answer:

p = 18 \frac {kg * m} {s}\\m = 50 \ kg

What is the electric field strength just outside the flat surface of the conductor?
inna [77]
We can find the answer step-by-step:

1) The electric charges on a conductor must lie entirely on its surface. This is because the charges have same sign, so the force acting between each other is repulsive therefore the charges must be as far apart as possible, i.e. on the surface of the conductor.

2) We consider a cylinder perpendicular to the surface of the conductor, that crosses the surface with its section. We then apply Gauss law, which states that the flux of the electric field through this cylinder is equal to the total charge inside it divided the electrical permittivity:
\Phi =  \frac{Q}{\epsilon_0}

3) The electric field outside the surface is perpendicular to the surface itself (otherwise there would be a component of the electric force parallel to the surface, which would move the charge, violating the condition of equilibrium). The electric field inside the conductor is instead zero, because otherwise charges would move violating again equilibrium condition. Therefore, the only flux is the one crossing the section A of the cylinder outside the surface: 
\Phi = E A

4) The total charge contained in the cylinder is the product between the section, A, and the charge density \sigma on the surface of the conductor:
Q=\sigma A

5) Substituting the flux and the charge density inside Gauss law, we can find the electric field just outside the surface of the conductor:
EA= \frac{\sigma A}{\epsilon_0}
therefore
E= \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}
