Precision refers to the closeness of two or more measurements to each other. Using the example above, if you weigh a given substance five times, and get 3.2 kg each time, then your measurement is very precise. Precision is independent of accuracy.

Which of the following is not a way that astronomers can find how much dark matter there is in cluster of galaxies?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

<em>b. Observe the radio waves coming from all dark matter; from the strength of the radio waves from each cluster, estimate the amount of dark matter needed to produce them.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The universe is thought to be made up of 85% dark matters. <em>Dark matter is called dark because it does not appear to interact with the electromagnetic field, which means it doesn't absorb, reflect or emit electromagnetic radiation, and is therefore difficult to detect. This means that option b is wrong since radio wave is an electromagnetic wave</em>. Dark matter is a form of matter that makes up  about a quarter of the total mass–energy density of the universe. Dark matter was theorized due a variety of astrophysical observations and gravitational effects that cannot be explained by accepted theories of gravity unless there were more matter in the universe than can be seen.

If the equation of an average velocity of a sport car was given by the equation V(t) = 3t^2 -6t +24. Determine its displacement
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

72

Explanation:

The displacement of an object can be found from the velocity of the object by integrating the expression for the velocity.

In this problem, the velocity of the sport car is given by the expression

v(t)=3t^2-6t+24

In order to find the expression for the position of the car, we integrate this expression. We find:

x(t)=\int v(t) dt=t^3-3t^2+24t+C

where C is an arbitrary constant.

Here we want to find the displacement after 3 seconds. The position at t = 0 is

x(0)=0^3-0+0+C=C

While the position after t = 3 s is

x(3)=3^3-3(3)^2+24(3)+C=72+C

Therefore, the displacement of the car in 3 seconds is

d=x(3)-x(0)=72+C-C=72

If you increase the elasticity of a material, what happens to the speed of a mechanical wave going through it?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

At the molecular level, materials are held together by bonds, which act like springs for small displacements from the equilibrium spacing between neighboring atoms. Push the atoms close, the bond pushes back to keep them apart. Pull them apart, the bond pulls the atoms closer. For those small displacements, it acts like a spring

The speed of the wave will be related to the stiffness of of those springs - you compress the material - how quickly do all of those little springs rebound and push their neighboring atoms away, sending that wave of compression through the material.

A 2.7-kg ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 20.0 m/s from the edge of a 45.0 m high cliff. At the instant the ball i
scoray [572]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the woman is 34.1m

Explanation:

Given

The initial height of the cliff

yo = 45m final, positition y = 0m bottom of the cliff

y = yo + ut -1/2gt²

u = 20.0m/s initial speed

g = 9.80m/s²

0 = 45.0 + 20×t –1/2×9.8×t²

0 = 45 +20t –4.9t²

Solving quadratically or by using a calculator,

t = 5.69s and –1.61s byt time cannot be negative so t = 5.69s

So this is the total time it takes for the ball to reach the ground from the height it was thrown.

The distance traveled by the woman is

s = vt

Given the speed of the woman v = 6.00m/s

Therefore

s = 6.00×5.69 = 34.14m

Approximately 34.1m to 3 significant figures.

A vertical spring stretches 4.0 cm when a 12-g object is hung from it. The object is replaced with a block of mass 28 g that osc
marin [14]

Answer:

Time period of the osculation will be 0.0671 sec  

Explanation:

It is given a vertical spring is stretched by 4 cm

So change in length of the spring x = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Mass which is hung from it m = 12 gram = 0.012 kg

Sprig force will be equal to weight of the mass

So kx=mg

k\times 0.04=0.012\times 9.8

k = 244.7 N/m

Now new mass is m = 28 gram = 0.028 kg

So time period with new mass will be

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{0.028}{244.7}}=0.0671sec
