Two measurments that are the same as each other are called_____? What are they called???

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.

A skateboarder rolls off a 2.5 m high bridge into the river. If the skateboarder was originally moving at 7.0 m/s, how much time

saul85 [17]

Answer:

t = 0.714 s and x = 5.0 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile throwing exercise, in this case when the skater leaves the bridge he goes with horizontal speed

vₓ = 7.0 m / s

Let's find the time it takes to get to the river

y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

the initial vertical speed is zero and when it reaches the river its height is zero

0 = y₀ + 0 - ½ g t²

t = $\sqrt{\frac{2y_o}{g} }$

t = ra 2 2.5 / 9.8

t = 0.714 s

the distance traveled is

x = vₓ t

x = 7.0 0.714

x = 5.0 m

Answer:

595391.482946 m/s

$3.21875\times 10^{6}$

Explanation:

E = Energy = 1.85 keV

I = Current = 5.15 mA

e = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

t = Time taken = 1 second

m = Mass of proton = $1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

Velocity of proton is given by

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.85\times 10^3\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}}\\\Rightarrow v=595391.482946\ m/s$

The speed of the proton is 595391.482946 m/s

Current is given by

$I=\dfrac{\Delta Q}{t}\\\Rightarrow \Delta Q=It\\\Rightarrow \Delta Q=5.15\times 10^{-3}\times (1\ sec)\\\Rightarrow Q=5.15\times 10^{-3}\ C$

Number of protons is

$n=\dfrac{Q}{e}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{5.15\times 10^{-3}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\\\Rightarrow n=3.21875\times 10^{6}\ protons$

The number of protons is $3.21875\times 10^{6}$

Grace [21]

Answer:

68.585m/sec , 779.1 N

Explanation:

To feel weightless, centripetal acceleration must equal g (9.8m/sec^2). The accelerations then cancel.

From centripetal motion.

F =( mv^2)/2

But since we are dealing with weightlessness

r = 480m

g = 9.8m/s^2

M also cancels, so forget M.

V^2 = Fr

V = √ Fr

V =√ (9.8 x 480) = 4704

= 68.585m/sec.

b) Centripetal acceleration = (v^2/2r) = (68.585^2/960) = 4704/960

= 4.9m/sec^2.

Weight (force) = (mass x acceleration) = 159kg x (g - 4.9)

159kg × ( 9.8-4.9)

159kg × 4.9

= 779.1N
