Parallax error occurs when the observer records data when he/she is at an angle to the event he/she is observing. Where do you t

kompoz [17]

Answer:Orient your line of sight directly above the measurement markings.

Explanation: parallax error is a type of systematic error that occurs when an observer views a measurement marking at a wrong angle. This causes a noticeable disparity in results obtained. Therefore the best way to prevent this error is to view and record the data from the correct angle. This can be obtained by:

-Place the measurement device on its edge so it is level with the object being measured.

-Seek out the finest possible edge of the measurement device, or use a device with finer edges.

In conclusion, ask other observers to also take the reading and get an average of their results. It can help cancel out parallax error results.

You walk 20 meters north, then 5 meters south. what is your displacement?

Svetllana [295]

The answer is C. 15 meters North

Displacement is the distance and direction from the origin. If you move 20 meters North, your displacement is 20 meters North. If you move 5 meters South, you are basically moving back the way you came by 5 meters, which means you are now 15 meters North.

I hope this helped! :)

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.7 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the rid

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

0.76

Explanation:

we are given:

radius (r) =5.7 m

speed (s) = 1 revolution in 5.5 seconds

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

coefficient of friction (Uk) = ?

we can get the minimum coefficient of friction from the equation below

centrifugal force = frictional force

m x r x ω^{2} = Uk x m x g

r x ω^{2} = Uk x g

Uk = $\frac{ r x ω^{2} }{g}$

where ω (angular velocity) = $\frac{2π}{time}$

= $\frac{2π }{5.5}$ = 1.14

Uk = $\frac{ 5.7 x 1.14^{2} }{9.8}$ = 0.76

A mixture of helium and oxygen is used in scuba diving tanks to help prevent ""the bends"". 46 L helium and 12 L oxygen are comb

marin [14]

Answer

given,

For helium

Volume,V = 46 L

Pressure,P = 1 atm

Temperature,T = 25°C = 273 +25 = 298 K

R=0.0821 L . atm /mole.K

n₁ = ?

number of moles

we know

P V = n R T

$n_1 =\dfrac{46 \times 1}{0.0821\times 298}$

n₁ = 1.89 moles

For oxygen

Volume,V = 12 L

Pressure,P = 1 atm

Temperature,T = 25°C = 273 +25 = 298 K

R=0.0821 L . atm /mole.K

n₂ = ?

number of moles

we know

P V = n R T

$n_2 =\dfrac{12 \times 1}{0.0821\times 298}$

n₂ = 0.49 moles

Total volume of tank = 5 L

temperature of tank = 298 K

Partial pressure of helium

$P_1=\dfrac{n_1 R T}{V}$

$P_1=\dfrac{1.89\times 0.0821\times 298}{5}$

P₁ = 9.25 atm

Partial pressure of oxygen

$P_2=\dfrac{n_2 R T}{V}$

$P_2=\dfrac{0.49\times 0.0821\times 298}{5}$

P₂ = 2.39 atm

total pressure

P = P₁ + P₂

P = 9.25 + 2.39

P = 11.64 atm
