Suppose your friend mistakes a yardstick for a meter stick and measures the length of an intersection in your neighborhood. Is t

his error random or systematic? Which of these types of errors affect precision or accuracy?

How do you find the uncertainty of a meter stick?

Thus, L =5 . 7 cm measured with a meter stick implies an uncertainty of 0.05 cm. A common rule of thumb is to take one-half the unit of the last decimal place in a measurement to obtain the uncertainty

The spring constant, k, for a 22cm spring is 50N/m. A force is used to stretch the spring and when it is measured again it is 32
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

5N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Original length = 22cm

Spring constant, K  = 50N/m

New length = 32cm

Unknown

Force applied  = ?

Solution:

The force applied on a spring can be derived using the expression below;

   Force  = KE

 k is the spring constant

 E is the extension

  extension = new length - original length

  extension  = 32cm  - 22cm  = 10cm

convert the extension from cm to m;  

   100cm  = 1m;

    10cm will give 0.1m

So;

  Force  = 50N/m x 0.1m  = 5N

Ammonia enters the compressor of an industrial refrigeration plant at 2 bar, −10°C with a mass flow rate of 15 kg/min and is com
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

a) W=85.225 kW

b) 0.02\frac{kW}{K}

Explanation:

First, consider the energy balance for the compressor: The energy that enters to the system (W and enthalpy of the feed flow) is equal to the energy that goes out from it (Heat Q and enthalpy of the exit flow):

W+m*h_1=Q+m*h_2\\W=Q+m*(h_2-h_1)

Consider the enthalpy data from van Wylen 6th edition, Table B.2.2. According to that, h_1=h(200kPa,-10C)=1440.6\frac{kJ}{kgK},  h_2=h(1200kPa,140C)=1757.5\frac{kJ}{kgK}

So, the power input to the compressor is:

W=6kW+15\frac{kg}{min}*\frac{min}{60s}*(1757.5-1440.6)\frac{kJ}{kg}\\W=85.225kW

b) The differential entropy change dS for a reversible heat transfer dQ at a temperature T is:

dS=\frac{dQ}{T}

This equation can be integrated if the heat transfer surface temperature remains constant, which is the case, giving as a result:

S_2-S_1=\frac{Q}{T}=\frac{6kW}{300K}=0.02\frac{kW}{K}

kykrilka [37]

Answer: Neighbour

Explanation: Taken perspective from the given clues:

The Neighbor walks to work 

The Handyman rides a bike 

The Cook rides a motorcycle 

The Maid drives a car 

The Nephew has a dog

If we assume that the handyman delivered the iPad in the mailbox, then

The direction of the cook, Nephew and his dog are perpendicular to the direction of the bike of the handyman. So, it can't be the cook, Nephew and the maid.

The two suspects are the handyman and the neighbour.

If the handyman actually dropped the iPad and left, then, the neighbour should be the culprit.
