Answer:

The correct degree of precision is 272.94 g.

Explanation:

Precision : It is defined as the closeness of two or more measurements to each other.

For Example: If you weigh a given substance five times and you get 2.7 kg each time. Then the measurement is said to be precise.

Level of precision is determined by the maximum number of decimal places.

In the given figure, the value of mass of object is 280 g. From the given options we conclude that the 272.94 g is more close to 280 g and has maximum number of decimal places. So, 272.94 g measurement is said to be precise.

Therefore, the correct degree of precision is 272.94 g.

What is the momentum of a 200 kg truck travelling at 20 m/s?

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

p = 4000 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a truck, m = 200 kg

Speed of the truck, v = 20 m/s

We need to find the momentum of the truck. The formula for momentum is given by :

p = mv

so,

$p=200\times 20\\\\p=4000\ kg-m/s$

So, the momentum of the truck is equal to 4000 kg-m/s.

Students perform an experiment in which they drop two eggs with equal mass from a balcony. In the first trial, the egg hits the

shepuryov [24]

Answer

The impulse on the second trial is smaller is smaller than in the first trial.

Explanation

Impose of a body is that change in momentum during a time interval. If the change of momentum takes longer then, the impulse of a force is less. I a moving object hits a hard surface the rate of change of momentum is very high. e.i in the first trial, the egg breaks because it hits the hard surface(ground).

In the second trial, the foam cushion absorbs the shock and prolongs the time of impact with the egg hence decreasing the impulse.

A single sperm and the mother's egg cell meet in the fallopian tube. When the single sperm enters the egg, conception occurs. The combined sperm and egg is called a zygote. The zygote contains all of the genetic information (DNA) needed to become a baby.

You have a pendulum clock made from a uniform rod of mass M and length L pivoting around one end of the rod. Its frequency is 1

drek231 [11]

The new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.

The given parameters;

Mass of the pendulum, = M
Length of the pendulum, = L
Initial angular speed, $\omega _i$ = 1 rad/s

The moment of inertia of the rod about the end is given as;

$I_i = \frac{1}{3} ML^2$

The moment of inertia of the rod between the middle and the end is calculated as;

$I_f = \int\limits^L_{L/2} {r^2\frac{M}{L} } \, dr = \frac{M}{3L} [r^3]^L_{L/2} = \frac{M}{3L} [L^3 - \frac{L^3}{8} ] = \frac{M}{3L} [\frac{7L^3}{8} ]= \frac{7ML^2}{24}$

Apply the principle of conservation of angular momentum as shown below;

$I _i \omega _i = I _f \omega _f\\\\\frac{ML^2}{3} (1 \ rad/s)= \frac{7ML^2}{24} \times \omega _f\\\\\frac{24 \times ML^2}{3 \times 7 ML^2} (1 \ rad/s)= \omega _f\\\\1.14 \ rad/s = \omega _f$

Thus, the new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.
