What is meant by error​

Physics
1 answer:
Romashka [77]2 years ago

Answer:

An error (from the Latin error, meaning "wandering") is an action which is inaccurate or incorrect. In some usages, an error is synonymous with a mistake. In statistics, "error" refers to the difference between the value which has been computed and the correct value.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

0.256 hours

Explanation:

<u>Vectors in the plane </u>

We know Office A is walking at 5 mph directly south. Let X_A be its distance. In t hours he has walked

X_A=5t\ \text{miles}

Office B is walking at 6 mph directly west. In t hours his distance is

X_B=6t\ \text{miles}

Since both directions are 90 degrees apart, the distance between them is the hypotenuse of a triangle which sides are the distances of each office

D=\sqrt{X_A^2+X_B^2}

D=\sqrt{(5t)^2+(6t)^2}

D=\sqrt{61}t

This distance is known to be 2 miles, so

\sqrt{61}t=2

t =\frac{2}{\sqrt{61}}=0.256\ hours

t is approximately 15 minutes

A sound wave has a frequency of 250 Hz and a wavelength of 2.5 m. What is the speed of the wave?
Digiron [165]

ANSWER

625 m/s

EXPLANATION

Given:

• The frequency of the sound wave, f = 250 Hz

,

• The wavelength, λ = 2.5 m

Find:

• The speed of the wave, v

The speed of a wave of wavelength λ and frequency f is given by,

v=f\cdot\lambda

Substitute the known values and solve,

v=250Hz\cdot2.5m=625m/s

Hence, the speed of the wave is 625 m/s.

<span>The correct answer is C:Waves transfer energy, but not matter. A wave does not move matter in the direction of its propagation. It only transfers energy just like the ocean wave traveling many miles away with the water just moving up and down.</span>

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Reflective

Explanation:

The radiation pressure of the wave that totally absorbed is given by;

P_{abs}= \frac{I}{C}

and While the radiation pressure of the wave totally reflected is given by;

P_{ref}= \frac{2I}{C}

Now compare the two-equation you can clearly see that the pressure due to reflection is larger than absorption therefore the sail should be reflective.
