Answer:11.5 s plus or minus 0.196 s

Explanation:

The uncertainty in the time of the runner to complete the distance is 11.5 s ± 0.1955 s

The given parameters;

length of the track, d = 100 m

time to complete the track, t = 11.5 s

the uncertainty, = 1.7%

The uncertainty in the time of the runner to complete the distance is calculated as;

the uncertainty = ± (0.017 x 11.5)

the uncertainty = ± 0.1955 s

Thus, the uncertainty in the time of the runner to complete the distance is 11.5 s ± 0.1955 s

Astronomers know that the distance between the Earth and the Sun averages 1.50 x108 km. How can astronomers use the observed ste
rodikova [14]

Answer:

The distance of stars and the earth can be averagely measured by using the knowledge of geometry to estimate the stellar parallax angle(p).

From the equation below, the stars distances can be calculated.

D = 1/p

Distance = 1/(parallax angle)

Stellar parallax can be used to determine the distance of stars from an observer, on the surface of the earth due to the motion of the observer. It is the relative or apparent angular displacement of the star, due to the displacement of the observer.

Explanation:

Parallax is the observed apparent change in the position of an object resulting from a change in the position of the observer. Specifically, in the case of astronomy it refers to the apparent displacement of a nearby star as seen from an observer on Earth.

The parallax of an object can be used to approximate the distance to an object using the formula:

D = 1/p

Where p is the parallax angle observed using geometry and D is the actual distance measured in parsecs. A parsec is defined as the distance at which an object has a parallax of 1 arcsecond. This distance is approximately 3.26 light years

A friend in your class tells you that she never uses hints when doing her Mastering homework. She says that she finds the hints
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

A, B, and C are good reasons for my friend not to worry

Explanation:

The following reasons are reason not to worry

A. The only way to lose additional partial credit on a hint is by using the "give up" button or entering incorrect answers. Leaving the question blank will not cost you any credit (Regardless of whether you open a link or not, you will lose credit if you enter a wrong answer or if you give up on a question by hitting the "give up" button. Even after opening a hint, you can leave the question blank if the hint does not provide relevant hints or if the hint brings up more question. Once the question is left blank, you do not lose additional partial credit)

B. As an incentive for thinking hard about the problem, your instructor may choose to apply a small hint penalty, but this penalty is the same whether the hint simply gives information or asks another question (In a situation where you decide to use a hint, the instructor may have put a penalty for using the hint, so whether it asks a question or help in the solution of the question, as long as the hint is consulted, the hint penalty still applies)

C. Getting the correct answer to the question in a hint actually gives you some partial credit, even if you still can't answer the original question (An advantage of using hint is that you get some partial credit for using it if you answer the hint question correctly and fails to answer the original question)

Describe three physical changes that occur in nature?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer: Physical changes in nature could then be erosion in a mountain, the melting of snow, and a river freezing over from the cold. Since none of these changes affect the chemical composition of the mountain, the snow, or the river, they are physical changes.
