Two groups were tasked to measure the mass of the metal objects given by their teacher. Rachel’s group has the following data fo

r 3 trials: 97 g, 98 g, and 99 g. Meanwhile, Ashley’s group has 99.5 g, 100.1 g, and 100.5 g. If the accepted value for the metal’s mass is 100 g, how will you describe the data of each group in terms of precision and accuracy?

The measurement of Rachel’s group is precise but not accurate while the measurement of Ashley’s group is accurate but not precise.

Precision has to do with how close together the values obtained from a scientific measurement is. If we take a look at the values obtained by  Rachel’s group, we will notice that the values are exactly 1.00 g apart. This means that the values are precise.

However, these values a far from the actual value which is 100.00 g therefore the measurement of Rachel’s group is precise but not accurate.

On the other hand, the values obtained by Ashley’s group are; 99.5 g, 100.1 g, and 100.5 g. These values are very close to the actual value which is 100.00 g  hence they are accurate.

The values obtained by Ashley’s group do not have consistent intervals therefore, they are not precise.

In the northern hemisphere, the wind blows clockwise around centers of high pressure. The wind blows counterclockwise around low
STatiana [176]
Since you're only asking for the last 3 items, here are the answers:
3. Maine is located in the northern hemisphere. If there is a high pressure, the wind is blowing clockwise. If there is a low pressure, the wind direction will be in the opposite direction.

4. Colorado is in the northern hemisphere. If there is a low pressure, the wind is going counterclockwise. If there is a high pressure, the opposite is true.

5. There is no map so I can't give you the exact answers.

True or false: Sometimes older rocks end up on top of younger rocks.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

true

downstream to the riverbed. However, the most common mechanism to produce older rocks on top of younger is by thrust faulting. Thrust faults form where rocks are being compressed, usually by plate tectonic mechanisms. Thrust faults rip up older strata and pile it on top of younger rocks.

An aqueous solution of potassium sulfate (K2SO4) has a freezing point of -2.24
iragen [17]
An aqueous solution of potassium sulfate exhibits colligative properties. Colligative properties are properties that depends on the concentration of a substance in a solution. These properties are freezing point depression, vapor pressure lowering, osmotic pressure and boiling point elevation. For this problem we use the concept of freezing point depression since we are given the freezing point of the solution. Freezing point depression is as:
 
ΔT = -k(f) x m x i
-2.24 - 0 = -1.86 x m x 3
<span>m = 0.4014

Thus, the molality of the solution is 0.4014.</span>

Why do northern lights appear in different colors? Because charged particles of solar wind ignite different gases in Earth's atm
Fofino [41]

Answer:

It is A. Because charged particles of solar wind ignite different gases in Earth's atmosphere.

Explanation:

Since the solar wind from the sun is too radioactive for humans (they would die), once the charged particles hit the earth's atmosphere it shows its color. Every element has its own color and once it hits the atmosphere it really starts to show.

8. Sulfur has a first ionization energy of 1000 kJ/mol. Photons of what frequency are required to ionize one mole of Sulfur?​
Lynna [10]

Answer:

the frequency of photons v = 1.509\times10^{39}Hz

Explanation:

Given:  first ionization energy of 1000 kJ/mol.

No. of moles of sulfur = 1 mole

\Delta E_1 = 1000KJ/mol

We know that plank's constant

h = 6.626\times10^{-34} Js

Let the frequency of photons be ν

Also we know that ΔE = hν

this implies ν = ΔE/h

= \frac{10^6J}{6.626\times10^{-34} Js}

v = 1.509\times10^{39}Hz

Hence, the frequency of photons v = 1.509\times10^{39}Hz
