Is this a testable question?

This is a non testable question because it cannot be answered by doing an experiment. But it could be modified for example Dogs are more obedient then cats.

Not really; it's primarily a matter of opinion.

The kinetic energy of a moving object is E=12mv2. A 61 kg runner is moving at 10kmh. However, her speedometer is only accurate t

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

$e=3367.2J$

% $e=1.43$ %

Explanation:

From the exercise we know two information. The real speed and the experimental measured by the speedometer

$v_{r}=10km/h=2.77m/s$

Since the speedometer is only accurate to within 0.1km/h the experimental speed is

$v_{e}=10km/h-0.1km/h=9.9km/h=2.75m/s$

Knowing that we can calculate Kinetic energy for the real and experimental speed

$E_{r}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}(61000g)(2.77m/s)^2=234023J$

$E_{e}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}(61000g)(2.75m/s)^2=230656J$

Now, the potential error in her calculated kinetic energy is:

$e=E_{r}-E_{e}=(234023-230656)J=3367.2J$

% $e=\frac{E_{r}-E_{e}}{E_{r}}x100=\frac{(234023-230656)J}{234023J}x100=1.43$ %

The wavelength of light is 5000 angstrom. Express it in nm and m.

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

1 angstrom = 0.1nm

5000 angstrom = 5000/1 × 0.1nm

$1 \: angstrom = 1 \times {10}^{ - 10} m$

5000 angstrom = 5000 × 1 × 10^-10

Hope this helps you

To develop the problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the moment of inertia.

The given values can be defined as,

$M = 1.0 kg$

$r = 0.5 m$

$m = 10 g$

$I = 0.280 kg.m^2$

According to the definition of the moment of inertia applied to the exercise we can arrive at the equation that,

$I = I_{rim} + n * I_{spoke}$

Where n is the number of spokes necessary to construct the wheel.

$I_{rim} = M*r^2 = 1.0 * 0.5^2$

$I_{spoke} = \frac{1}{3} * m * r^2 = \frac{1}{3}* 10 * 10^-3 * 0.5^2$

Replacing the values at the general equation we have,

$0.280 = 1.0 * 0.5^2 + n * (1/3 * 10 * 10^-3 * 0.5^2 )$

Solving for n,

$n = 36$

Therefore the number of spokes necessary to construct the wheel is 36

PART B) The mass of the wheel is given by the sum of all masses and the total spokes, then

$M_w= M + n*m$

$M_w = 1.0 + 36* 10 * 10^{-3} Kg$

$M_w = 1.36 Kg$

Therefore the mass of the wheel must be of 1.36Kg

The sound produced by the loudspeaker in the drawing has a frequency of 11999 Hz and arrives at the microphone via two different

const2013 [10]

The speed at which sound travels through the gas in the tube is 719.94m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Frequency, f = 11999Hz

Wavelength, λ = 0.03m

Velocity, v = ?

Sound speed in the tube is calculated by multiplying the frequency v by the wavelength λ.

As the sound loudness changed from a maximum to a minimum, then we know the sound interference in the case changed from constructive interference (the two sound waves are in phase, i.e. peaks are in a line with peaks and so the troughs), to a destructive interference (peaks coinciding with troughs). The least distance change required to cause such a change is a half wavelength distance, so:

λ/2 = 0.03/2

λ = 0.06m

We know,

v = λf

v = 0.06 X 11999Hz

v = 719.94m/s

Therefore, the speed at which sound travels through the gas in the tube is 719.94m/s
