Answer:

International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) is an international organization founded to bring about the unification of measurement systems, to establish and preserve fundamental international standards and prototypes, to verify national standards, and to determine fundamental physical constants. The bureau was established by a convention signed in Paris on May 20, 1875, effective January 1876. In 1921 a modified convention was signed. The convention provides for a General Conference that meets every four years to consider required improvements or modifications in standards. An International Committee of Weights and Measures, composed of 18 scientists elected by the conference, meets annually to monitor worldwide uniformity in units of measure.

Hope this helps!!! :)

A vinyl record is played by rotating the record so that an approximately circular groove in the vinyl slides under a stylus. Bum

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Hits per second=199 hit/s

Explanation:

#Given the angular velocity, $\omega=33\frac{1}{3} rev/min$ , radius of the record $r=0.1m$ and the distance between any two successive bumps on the groove as $d=1.75mm$ .

The linear speed of the record in meters per second is:

$v=\omega r=33\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{2\pi}{60}\times 10\times 10^{_2}\\\\=0.3843m/s\\$

#From $v$ above, if the bumps are uniformly separated by 1m, then the rate at which they hit the stylus is:

$Hits/second=v/d \ \ \ \ d=1.75mm\\\\=0.3483/0.000175\\\\=199.0385714\approx 199$

Hence the bumps hit the stylus at around 199hit/s

A scale contains a spring with a spring constant of 291 N/m. Placing a mass on the scale causes the spring to be compressed by 2

WINSTONCH [101]

E = 1/2*k*x^2 = 0.5*291*0.0289^2 = 0.12 J

A hockey puck slides on the ice and eventually stops. How would Newton interpret this behavior?

azamat

That would be a the first law of newton's laws of motion because it stops from an external force

a man can row about 4kmperhr in a still water.he rows the boat 2km up the stream and 2km back to his starting point in 2hr.how f

Nat2105 [25]

<u>Answer</u>:

The stream flowing at a speed of $2.828 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{hr}$

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given:

Distance = 2km (both in upstream and downstream)

The speed in still water be x km/hr.

The speed in upstream = 4-x

Speed in downstream = 4+x

Solution:

We know that, Speed = distance/time

So, Time = distance/speed

Therefore,

$2=\left(\frac{2}{4-x}\right)+\left(\frac{2}{4+x}\right)$

$2=\frac{2(4+x)+2(4-x)}{(4-x)(4+x)}$

$2(4-x)(4+x)=2(4+x)+2(4-x)$

$2(4-x)(4+x)=2(4+x+4-x)$

By cancelling 2 on both sides,

$16-x^{2}=8$

$x^{2}=16-8=8$

$x=\sqrt{8}$

$x=2.828 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{hr}$

Result:

Thus the speed of the stream is $2.828 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{hr}$
