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).

An electron is released form rest in a region of space where a uniform electric field is present. Joanna claims that its kinetic
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Neither.

Explanation:

When an electron is released from rest, in an uniform electric field, it will accelerate moving in a direction opposite to the field (as the field has the direction that it would take a positive test charge, and the electron carries a negative charge).

It will move towards a point  with a higher potential, so its kinetic energy will increase, while its potential energy will decrease:

⇒ ΔK + ΔU = 0 ⇒ ΔK = -ΔU = - (-e*ΔV)

As ΔV>0, we conclude that the electric potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases in the same proportion, in order to energy be conserved, in absence of non-conservative forces.

Water flows through a cast steel pipe (k = 50 W m.K, ε = 0.8) with an outer diameter of 104mm and 2 mm wall thickness. Calculate
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The heat loss per unit length is   \frac{Q}{L}   = 2981 W/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The outer diameter of the pipe is d = 104mm = \frac{104}{1000} = 0.104 m

     The thickness is  D = 2mm = \frac{2}{1000} = 0.002m  

      The temperature  of water is  T = 90^oC = 90 + 273 = 363K  

      The outside air temperature is T_a = -10^oC = -10 +273 = 263K

        The water side heat transfer coefficient is z_1 = 300 W/ m^2 \cdot K

       The  heat transfer coefficient is  z_2 = 20 W/m^2 \cdot K

The heat lost per unit length is mathematically represented as

           \frac{Q}{L}   = \frac{2 \pi (T - Ta)}{ \frac{ln [\frac{d}{D} ]}{z_1}  +  \frac{ln [\frac{d}{D} ]}{z_2}}

Substituting values

         \frac{Q}{L}   = \frac{2 * 3.142 (363 - 263)}{ \frac{ln [\frac{0.104}{0.002} ]}{300}  +  \frac{ln [\frac{0.104}{0.002} ]}{20}}

           \frac{Q}{L}   = \frac{628}{0.2107}

           \frac{Q}{L}   = 2981 W/m
