Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5.25%

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Accepted value = 238857 miles

Measured value = 226316 miles

Percentage error =.?

Next, we shall determine the absolute error. This can be obtained as follow:

Accepted value = 238857 miles

Measured value = 226316 miles

Absolute Error =?

Absolute Error = |Measured – Accepted|

Absolute Error = |226316 – 238857|

Absolute Error = 12541

Finally, we shall determine the percentage error. This can be obtained as follow:

Accepted value = 238857 miles

Absolute Error = 12541

Percentage error =.?

Percentage error = absolute error / accepted value × 100

Percentage error

= 12541 / 238857 × 100

= 1254100 / 238857

= 5.25%

Therefore, the percentage error is 5.25%.

Explain how you can use the factors of production to produce a fruit juice in a production company

Answers

Answer:

The factors of production include Land, Labour, Capital and Enterpreneurship

Explanation:

The fruit could be apple, orange , pineapple etc which are usually grown on land . They are tended to by people to ensure there is maximum yield. These people provide the required labour needed.

The cost of planting and payment of workers usually comes from the capital which is often used in running the business by the owner which makes certain decisions to ensure the fruit company is in place. All these factors work hand in hand to ensure production of fruit in a production company is possible.

. A car accelerates uniformly from 0 to 72 km/h in 11.5 seconds.
a) What is the acceleration of the car in m/s2? b) What is the position of the car by the time it reaches the velocity of 72 km/h?​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

First job is to convert 72 km/hr to m/s:

[tex]72\frac{km}{hr}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1000m}{1km}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1hr}{3600s}[/tex] = 2.0 × 10¹ m/s

Now to find the acceleration which is

[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}[/tex] and filling in:

[tex]a=\frac{2.0*10^1-0}{11.5}=1.7\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex] That's part a. Part b want to know how far the car can get in 11.5 seconds (because that's the time it takes for the car to get to 72 km/hr). Since we know that the car can get 2.0 × 10¹ meters in 1 second, that means that in 11.5 seconds, the car can get 11.5(2.0 × 10¹) which is 230 meters.

Given that,

The work function for silver is 4.73 eV.

We need to find the value of the work function from electron volts to joules.

We know that,

[tex]1\ eV=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex]

For 4.73 eV,

[tex]4.73\ eV=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 4.73\\\\=7.56\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex]

So, the work function for silver is [tex]7.56\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex].

An ammeter with a resistance of 5.0 ohm is connected in series with a 3.0V cell and a lamp rated at 300 mA, 3V. Calculate the current that the ammeter will measure

Answers

Answer:

I = 0.2 A

Explanation:

Lamp is rated at 300 mA

I_lamp = 0.3 A

Voltage is; V = 3V

Thus; Resistance is given by;

R = V/I

R = 3/0.3

R = 10 ohms

Now, since the ammeter of 5 ohms is connected in series with the lamp. Thus equivalent resistance;

R_eq = 10 + 5

R_eq = 15 ohms

Ammeter current will be;

I = V/R_eq

I = 3/15

I = 0.2 A

A system has a pressure of 5 N/m2
If a force of 2000N is applied, what is the area that the force is applied to?
Give the units.

Answers

400 m2

Explanation:

Pressure = Force ÷ Area

5 N/m2 = 2000 N ÷ A

A = 2000 N ÷ 5

= 400 m2

If a force of 2000N is applied, the area that the force is applied to is 400 m²

What is force?

The word "force" has a specific meaning in science. At this level, calling a force a push or a pull is entirely appropriate. A force is not something an object "has in it" or that it "contains."

One thing experiences a force from another. There are both living things and non-living objects in the concept of a force.

The amount of force applied to a certain region is referred to as pressure. The force per unit area is called pressure. F in this condensed version of the equation stands in for the force, which is expressed in newtons.

Given that the pressure of 5 N/m²

Force is 2000N

Pressure = Force ÷ Area

5 N/m² = 2000 N ÷ A

A = 2000 N ÷ 5 = 400 m²

Therefore, the area that the force is applied to is 400 m².

A ball of mass 0.3 kg is released from rest at a height of 8 m. How fast is it going when it hits the ground? (Gravity being equal to 9.8)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass doesn't matter here because when something is falling, gravity plays fairly; an elephant falls at the same rate of acceleration as does a feather. What DOES matter is everything pertinent to the y-dimension of free-fall:

a = -9.8 m/s/s

v₀ = 0 (since the ball was held before it was dropped)

v = ??

Δx = -8 m (negative because the ball drops this far below the point from which it was released).

Putting all this together in one equation:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx and filling in this equation:

v² = (0)² + 2(-9.8)(-8) and

v² = 156.8 so

v = 12.5 which rounds to 13 if you're using 2 sig figs, and rounds to 10 if you're only using 1 (which you should be, according to the way the numbers have been given in this problem)

A 5.0 kg block of ice is at rest at the top of a smooth inclined plane. The block is released and slides 2.0 m down the plane. Assuming there is no friction between the block and the surface, calculate
a) the gravitational potential energy at the top of the plane
b) the component of the weight parallel to the plane
c) the acceleration of the block
d) the velocity of the block at the bottom of the plane
e) the kinetic energy at the bottom of the plane. ​

Answers

Answer:

a) 98.1 Joules

b) 49.05 N × sin(θ)

c) 9.81 × sin(θ)

d) The velocity of the block at the bottom of the plane, v is approximately 6.264 m/s

e) 98.1 Joules

Explanation:

The given parameters of the block are;

The mass of the block, m = 5.0 kg

The distance down the plane the block slides, h = 2.0 m

The friction between the block and the surface = 0

Let θ represent the angle of inclination oof the plane

a) The gravitational potential energy, P.E. = m·g·h

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

∴ P.E. ≈ 5.0 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 2.0 m = 98.1 Joules

The gravitational potential energy, P.E. ≈ 98.1 Joules

b) The component of the weight of the block parallel to the plane, [tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex] = w × sin(θ) = m·g·sin(θ)

∴ [tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex] ≈ 5.0 kg × 9.81 m/s² × sin(θ) = 49.05 × sin(θ) N

The component of the weight of the block parallel to the plane, [tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex] ≈ 49.05 N × sin(θ)

c) The component of the weight along the inclined plane = The force with which the block moves along the inclined plane, therefore;

[tex]w_{\parallel}[/tex] = m·g·sin(θ) = m·a

Where a represents the acceleration of the block along the plane

Therefore, by comparison, we have;

g·sin(θ) = a

∴ a ≈ 9.81 × sin(θ)

d) Given that the motion of the block is 2.0 m downwards, we have;

The velocity of the block at the bottom of the plane, v² = 2·g·h

Therefore, v² ≈ 2 × 9.81 m/s²× 2.0 m = 39.24 m²/s²

v = √(39.24 m²/s²) ≈ 6.264 m/s

e) The kinetic energy at the bottom of the plane, K.E. = (1/2)·m·v²

∴ K.E. = (1/2) × 5.0 kg × 39.24 m²/s² = 98.1 J

Answers

Answer:

A vector can be written as:

(R, θ)

Where R is the magnitude, in this case, we know that the magnitude of the displacement is 5m

Then:

R = 5m

and θ defines the direction, it's an angle measured from the positive x-axis.

(In the image, θ would be the angle located at the point A)

Now, if you look at the image, you can see a triangle rectangle.

Where the adjacent cathetus has a length of 4,

the opposite cathetus has a length of 3 units

the hypotenuse has a length of 5 units.

So we can use any trigonometric rule to find the value of θ, like:

sin(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/hypotenuse

Then:

sin(θ) = 3m/5m

Now we can use the inverse sin function, Asin(x), in both sides

Asin( sin(θ)) = θ = Asin( 3/5) = 36.87°

then the vector is:

(5m, 36.87°)

Now, if we define the positive y-axis as the North, and the positive x-axis as the East.

This vector would point at 36.87° North of East.

Complete question is;

Margy is trying to improve her cardio endurance by performing an exercise in which she alternates walking and running 100.0 m each. If Margy is walking at 1.4 m/s and accelerates at 0.20 m/s² during one of the running portions, what is her final velocity at the end of the 100.0 m? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

6.5 m/s

Explanation:

We are told that she is walking at 1.4 m/s and accelerates at 0.20 m/s².

Thus;

Initial velocity; u = 1.4 m/s

Acceleration; a = 0.2 m/s²

Distance; s = 100 m

From Newton's equation of motion, we know that;

v² = u² + 2as

Where v is final velocity.

Thus;

v² = 1.4² + 2(0.2 × 100)

v² = 41.96

v = √41.96

v ≈ 6.5 m/s

A student walks 350 m [S], then 400 m [E20°N], and finally 550 m [N10°W]. Using the component method, find the resultant (total) displacement). Round your answer to the appropriate significant figures. Round your angle to the nearest degree.

Answers

In component form, the displacement vectors become

• 350 m [S]   ==>   (0, -350) m

• 400 m [E 20° N]   ==>   (400 cos(20°), 400 sin(20°)) m

(which I interpret to mean 20° north of east]

• 550 m [N 10° W]   ==>   (550 cos(100°), 550 sin(100°)) m

Then the student's total displacement is the sum of these:

(0 + 400 cos(20°) + 550 cos(100°), -350 + 400 sin(20°) + 550 sin(100°)) m

≈ (280.371, 328.452) m

which leaves the student a distance of about 431.8 m from their starting point in a direction of around arctan(328.452/280.371) ≈ 50° from the horizontal, i.e. approximately 431.8 m [E 50° N].
