Base isolation is a method of earthquake resistant engineering where a structure is separated from the ground by isolation units that reduces the impact of seismic vibration energy. So, the last answer choice would be the best definition.
Firstly calculate the grams in the last 8 percent before moving onto the pyrite section.
50.8x0.08=4.064g
We know that iron ore in this case has 92 percent pyrite which contains 46.5 percent iron so we do 50.8x0.92=46.736g from this we need to find 46.5 percent of the iron content in the 92 percent pyrite section then add this answer to the 8 percent of iron ore we found at the start.46.736x0.465=21.73224g
21.73224g+4.064=25.79624g of iron ore 25.8g(3sf)
Percent error is the difference between the measured and known value, divided by the known value, multiplied by 100%.
So first, we take our measured value, .299 cm, minus our known value, .225 cm.
.299 cm - .225 cm=.004 cm
Next, we divide that by our known value
Finally, multiply your answer by 100
.0177777778 x 100= 1.77777778 %
Round to three significant figures, and you're done.
=1.78 % error
D is the correct answer... if u need in depth let me know
