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%

11. A plow pushes 100 kg of snow with 300 N of force. How much is the pile of snow<br> accelerated?
Fed [463]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is an application of Newton's second Law.

Formula

F = m * a

F = 300 N

m = 100 kg

a = ?

F = m * a

300N = 100 kg * a            Divide by 100

300N/100kg = a

a = 3 m/sec^2

Compare and contrast potential and kinetic energy
inysia [295]
Kinetic and Potential Energy HistoryA roller coaster train going down hill represents merely a complex case as a body is descending an inclined plane. Newton's first two laws relate force and acceleration, which are key concepts in roller coaster physics. At amusement parks, Newton's laws can be applied to every ride. These rides range from 'The Swings' to The 'Hammer'. Newton was also one of the developers of calculus which is essential to analyzing falling bodies constrained on more complex paths than inclined planes. A roller coaster rider is in an gravitational field except with the Principle of Equivalence.Potential EnergyPotential energy is the same as stored energy. The "stored" energy is held within the gravitational field. When you lift a heavy object you exert energy which later will become kinetic energy when the object is dropped. A lift motor from a roller coaster exerts potential energy when lifting the train to the top of the hill. The higher the train is lifted by the motor the more potential energy is produced; thus, forming a greater amount if kinetic energy when the train is dropped. At the top of the hills the train has a huge amount of potential energy, but it <span>has very little kinetic energy.Kinetic Energy The word "kinetic" is derived from the Greek word meaning to move, and the word "energy" is the ability to move. Thus, "kinetic energy" is the energy of motion --it's ability to do work. The faster the body moves the more kinetic energy is produced. The greater the mass and speed of an object the more kinetic energy there will be. Hope this helped:))))</span>

Two disks of identical mass but different radii (r and 2r) are spinning on frictionless bearings at the same angular speed ?0, b
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of a disc = 1/2 M R²

Since mass is same for both and radius are r and 2r, their moment of inertia can be in the ratio of 1: 4 . Let them be I and 4I . Angular speed are ω₀ and   - ω₀ .

We shall apply law of conservation of angular momentum .

initial total angular momentum

I x ω₀ - 4I x ω₀ = - 3Iω₀

Let final common angular momentum be ω

total final angular momentum = ( I + 4I ) ω

Applying law of conservation of angular momentum

( I + 4I ) ω =  - 3Iω₀

ω = - 3 / 5 ω₀ .

b )

Initial total rotational K E

= 1/2 I ω₀² + 1/2 4I ω₀²

= 1/2 x5I ω₀²

Final total rotational K E

= 1/2 ( I + 4I ) ( - 3 / 5 ω₀ )²

= 1/2 x 9 / 5 I ω₀²

= 9 / 10I ω₀²

change in rotational kinetic energy = 9 / 10I ω₀² - 1/2 x5I ω₀²

(9/10 - 5/2) xI ω₀²

=( .9 - 2.5 )I ω₀²

= - 1.6 I ω₀² Ans
