While doing a lab, a student found the density of a piece of pure aluminum to be 2.85 g/cm3. The accepted value for the density

of aluminum is 2.70 g/cm3. What was the student's percent error?

The equation for percent error is

% Error = 100*|Experimental-Theoretical|/Theoretical

Our experimental is 2.85g/cm^3 and the accepted is 2.7g/cm^3

Thus our % Error = 5.555%

Answer:

8.89 m/s² west

Explanation:

Assume east is +x.  Given:

v₀ = 120 m/s

v = 0 m/s

t = 13.5 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

0 m/s = a (13.5 s) + 120 m/s

a = -8.89 m/s²

a = 8.89 m/s² west

Hawks and gannets soar above the ground and, when they spot prey, they fold their wings and essentially drop like a stone. They
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

  v = 54.2 m / s

Explanation:

Let's use energy conservation for this problem.

Starting point Higher

         Em₀ = U = m g h

Final point. Lower

        Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

        Em₀ = Em_{f}

        m g h = ½ m v²

         v² = 2gh

         v = √ 2gh

Let's calculate

         v = √ (2 9.8 150)

         v = 54.2 m / s
