Distinguish between pressure and force in the case of wang yourself on a common bathroom scale

Physics
1 answer:
bixtya [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: hey here's your answer...

Explanation: We can think of a force as a push on a surface, such as the force due to gravity you exert when standing on a bathroom scale. Pressure involves the distribution of force. The scale measures force, not pressure, so your weight reading is the same no matter how you distribute your weight on the scale.

Hope this helps...

Have a nice day-

spin [16.1K]

Answer:It turns out the Venus flytrap is a power plant, capable of generating electrical signals. Each trap is actually a modified leaf: a hinged midrib, which would be the central vein of a more familiar leaf, joins the two lobes, which secrete a sweet sap to attract insects.

Explanation:The leaves of Venus' Flytrap open wide and on them are short, stiff hairs called trigger or sensitive hairs. When anything touches these hairs enough to bend them, the two lobes of the leaves snap shut trapping whatever is inside.

Explain how to determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object such as a rock
alexira [117]
If you have no way to accurately measure all of the object's bumps and dimples, then the only way to measure its volume is by means of fluid displacement. 

-- Put some water into a graduated (marked) container, read the amount of water, drop the object into the container, and read the new volume in the container.  The volume of the object is the difference between the two readings.

-- Alternatively, stand an unmarked container in a large pan, and fill it to the brim. Slowly slowly lower the object into the unmarked container, while the pan catches the water that overflows from it.  When the object is completely down in the container, carefully remove the container from the pan, and measure the volume of the water in the pan.  It's equal to the volume of the object.

Peter designed a road with a curve of radius 30 m that is banked so that a 950 kg car traveling at 40.0 km/h can round it even i
spayn [35]

Answer:

v = 15.56 m/s

v = 56 km/h

Explanation:

When coefficient of friction is approximately zero then we have

F_ncos\theta = mg

F_n sin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}

tan\theta = \frac{v^2}{Rg}

here we know that

v = 40 km/h = 11.11 m/s

R = 30 m

tan\theta = \frac{11.11^2}{30\times 9.81}

\theta = 22.75 degree

now when friction coefficient is 0.30 then we have

F_n cos\theta = mg + F_f sin\theta

F_f cos\theta + F_n sin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}

now we have

v = \sqrt{Rg(\frac{\mu + tan\theta}{1 - \mu tan\theta})}

v = \sqrt{30(9.81)(\frac{0.30 + tan22.75}{1 - (0.30) tan22.75})}

v = 15.56 m/s

v = 56 km/h

You calculate the density of a block of aluminum to be 2.68 g/cm3. You look up the density of a block of aluminum at room temper
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Systematic errors.

Explanation:

The density of the aluminium was calculated by a human and this is not natural but can be due to errors in the calibration of the scale for measuring the weight or taking readings from the measuring cylinder.

Random errors are natural errors. Random errors in experimental measurements are caused by unknown and unpredictable changes in the experiment. Systematic errors are due to imprecision or problems with instruments.
