there here is your answer to your question

Uncertainty in measurements and calculations means difference between actual and measured data. We can say that all measurements have some degree of uncertainty. ... Systematic error (because of error in measuring instrument) 2. Random error (human errors such as- delay in starting, delay in stopping).

inysia [295]

Answer:

0.84 m

Explanation:

Given in the y direction:

Δy = 0.60 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

0.60 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 0.35 s

Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 2.4 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.35 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (2.4 m/s) (0.35 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.35 s)²

Δx = 0.84 m

Consider the following mass distribution where the x- and y-coordinates are given in meters: 5.0 kg at (0.0, 0.0) m, 2.9 kg at (

Sauron [17]

Answer:

x = -1.20 m

y = -1.12 m

Explanation:

as we know that four masses and their position is given as

5.0 kg (0, 0)

2.9 kg (0, 3.2)

4 kg (2.5, 0)

8.3 kg (x, y)

As we know that the formula of center of gravity is given as

$x_{cm} = \frac{m_1 x_1 + m_2x_2 + m_3x_3 + m_4x_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}$

$0 = \frac{5(0) + 2.9(0) + 4(2.5) + 8.3 x}{5 + 2.9 + 4 + 8.3}$

$10 + 8.3 x = 0$

$x = -1.20 m$

Similarly for y direction we have

$y_{cm} = \frac{m_1 y_1 + m_2y_2 + m_3y_3 + m_4y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}$

$0 = \frac{5(0) + 2.9(3.2) + 4(0) + 8.3 y}{5 + 2.9 + 4 + 8.3}$

$9.28 + 8.3 x = 0$

$x = -1.12 m$
