Use the rules for significant figures to find the answer to the following addition problem: "21.4+15+17.17+4.003"

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

57.6

Explanation:

"Significant figures" refer to figures that have an actual contribution to a number's value.

They refer to all digits except those with "leading zero," which means having a zero digit before a specific number. For example, in the number 0234, the significant figures are 234.

The rule for adding and subtracting significant figures is to round off the answer to the least number of decimal places. However, when it comes to multiplying and dividing significant figures, you have round off the answer to the least number of significant digits.

Let's solve.

 21.4

+15

 17.17

 4.003

57.573

Let's now round off to the least number of decimal places, which is the tenths. Since 0.5 is followed by a number greater than 5, we have to round it off to 6. Therefore, the answer is: 57.6

a 12-kg block is pulled by a string at a 30 degree angle. if the string exerts a 50 n force, the block accelerates at 4.13 m/s2. what is the frictional force and normal force exerted on the block?

Answers

Let, frictional force is f and normal force is N.

Balancing horizontal forces :

[tex]50cos \ 30^o - f = 12 \times 4.13\\\\f = 50cos \ 30^o - 49.56\\\\f = -6.26\ N[/tex]

Also, balancing vertical forces, we get :

[tex]N = mg + 50sin \ 30^o\\\\N =( 12\times 9.8 ) + (50\times sin \ 30^o)\\\\N = 142.6\ N[/tex]

Therefore, the frictional force and normal force is -6.26 N and 142.6 N.

room's become bright at the day time although there is no bright sunlight in the rooms why

this is give reason​

Answers

Answer:

The room become bright in the day by a process call scattering of light or Rayleigh scattering.

Explanation:

It is called Rayleigh scattering or scattering of light because Rayleigh scattering is the scattering if light or electromagnetic radiation by smaller particles which have radius of less than 110 nanometer in a medium and the wavelengths of the electromagnetic. Wave or light remain unchanged. The scattering of light occur in the day time in the room and this bring of brighten up of the room.

What is the longest wavelength that can be observed in the third order for a transmission grating having 5200 slits/cm?

Answers

Answer:

641 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

A transmission grating has 5200 slits/cm.

We need to find the longest wavelength that can be observed in the third order. Using grating equation as follows :

[tex]d\sin\theta=m\lambda[/tex] ...(1)

d is slit spacing

No fo slit per unit length :

[tex]N={5200}\ slit/cm\\\\=520000\ slits/m[/tex]

We know that, N = 1/d

For longest wavelength, θ = 90°

From equation (1)

[tex]\dfrac{\sin\theta}{m\lambda}=\dfrac{1}{d}\\\\520000=\dfrac{\sin(90)}{3\lambda}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{1}{520000\times 3}\\\\=6.41\times 10^{-7}\ m\\\\=641\ nm[/tex]

Hence, the longest wavelength in third order for a transmission grating is 641 nm.

Explain how would you infer through an experiment that substances generate electric current.

Answers

Answer:

How will you infer with the help of an experiment that the same current flows through every part of the circuit containing three resistors R1 ,R2 and R3 in series connected to a battery of V volt.

we can connect voltmeter across each resistor

V = V1 + V2 + V3

I1 = current across resistor R1

I1 = V1/R1

similarly

I2 = current across resistor R2

I2= V2/R2

I3 = current across resistor R3

I3 = V3/R3

we will see that

I1 = I2 = I3

also it will be equal to V/(R1 + R2+R3)

What is the minimum force require to move a 5kg wooden crate on a wooden floor?
14.7 m/s^2
20.6N
20.6 m/s^2
14.7N

Answers

You need to know the coefficient of static friction between a wooden object and a wooden surface. I'll denote it with µ. If you're given a specific value you should obviously use that.

By Newton's second law, the horizontal and vertical net forces are

• net horizontal:

F = p - f = 0

• net vertical:

F = n - w = 0

where

p = magnitude of the pushing force

f = mag. of friction

n = mag. of the normal force

w = weight of the crate

The second equation gives

n = w = (5 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 49 N

Friction is proportional to the normal force by a factor of µ, so

f = µ (49 N) = 49µ N

To overcome static friction, the push has to exceed this in magnitude, so that

p > 49µ N

For instance, if p = 0.25, then p would need to greater than 12.25 N. (This example isn't particularly helpful, though, since both possibly correct options are larger than 12.25 N...)

What is the answer and why

Answers

Answer:

The distance between gas species are assumed to be large.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the ideal gas condition is a hypothetical state of gases at which they are at low pressure and high temperature, because it is assumed the molecules are neither attracted nor repelled by each other, we can infer that the correct statement is "the distance between gas species are assumed to be large" because the low pressure and high temperature ensure the molecules are far away from each other and therefore allowing the ideal equation to be used to model the case, otherwise a rigorous equation of state such as Peng-Robinson, Redlich-Kwong and other should be used to model it as gases actually undergo interaction between their molecules.

3. Now use the brown knob at the opening of the hose to adjust the angle at which water comes out. When water comes out at an angle (instead of going straight up), water does not shoot as high as before. Explain your observations qualitatively.

Answers

Answer:

Due to brown knob which controls its angle.

Explanation:

When water comes out at an angle instead of going straight up, water does not shoot as high as before because its speed is controlled by the brown knob in order to throw water in another angle. If we adjust the brown knob present at the opening of hose pipe in a straight angle the water shoot very high because water moves with high pressure and no barrier is present between its way.

Identify which graph shows an object that is speeding up over time. Explain why. Identify which graph shows an object that is moving at a constant speed. Explain why. Question 15 options:

Answers

Answer:

Graph for object that is not moving: B

Graph for object that is speeding up: D

Explanation:

A.) In order to represent that an object is not moving, you must either show that there is no velocity (0 m/s) or show a position over time graph that is a horizontal line.

Because the position is the same as time increases, the graph shows that there the object must be at rest, as there is no change in position due to velocity. (Velocity must be 0m/s)

B.) In order to represent an object is speeding up, the position time graph must either be a positive exponential function, the velocity time graph must be a positive, linear line, or the acceleration over time graph must be a positive, horizontal line.

Why is D the correct answer? Because if an object is speeding up, you know that the value of its speed (velocity) is increasing at some rate. And since speeding up refers to positive change, the function of velocity over time graph must be a positive function.

"discovery" - Spanish flu

scientific concept/principle - exponential growth


thank you!

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, the deadliest in history, infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide about one-third of the planet’s population and killed an estimated 20 million to 50 million victims, including some 675,000 Americans. The 1918 flu was first observed in Europe, the United States and parts of Asia before swiftly spreading around the world. At the time, there were no effective drugs or vaccines to treat this killer flu strain. Citizens were ordered to wear masks, schools, theaters and businesses were shuttered and bodies piled up in makeshift morgues.

Does this sound familiar?

Its the same thing but with a different name called the Corona virus pandemic the same thing happened in 1918 and now it is happening again in 2020 , but in in 2020 there are far less people infected by the Corona virus as compared to the Spanish flu the numbers approximate around 70 million infected and deaths are around 2 million.

The rapid spread of Spanish flu in the fall of 1918 was at least partially to blame on public health officials unwilling to impose quarantines during wartime. The public health response to the crisis in the United States was further hampered by a severe nursing shortage as thousands of nurses had been deployed to military camps and the front lines. But one of the chief reasons that the Spanish flu claimed so many lives in 1918 was that science simply didn’t have the tools to develop a vaccine for the virus. Microscopes couldn’t even see something as incredibly small as a virus until the 1930s.

That is why the Spanish Flu claimed so many lives in 1918 and the Corona Virus didn't claim that many.

The Corona Virus patients with respect to Spanish Flu patients exponentially decreased because in 2020 we had the specific tools to fight the virus and since mankind was aware when the world engrossed into the pandemic 100 years before the new the risks that it could impose on the world , People started to Quarantine themselves, more nurses/doctors are available rather than in the era of the 19th century.

Mathematically we would say that the exponential growth would be:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

This is an exponential function, which means as you increase  x , y  increases exponentially, and where a is the initial value and b is the growth factor.

For example:

There are 100,000 cases of Coronavirus when the virus outbroke. If the number of cases doubles every week then how many cases would be there in 10 weeks?

So the solution would be

[tex]y=ab^x\\y=100000(2)^{10}\\y=102400000[/tex]

Which means people infected with the virus would be approximate 102.5 million. But since this kind of pandemic already broke out in 1918 called the Spanish flu mankind was wise and controlled its growth factor (b) by Quarantining people , shutting down businesses, schools  and implying them to work from home , closing off cafeteria's restaurants for dine in purposes and just allowing take away to reduce human contact, and since 1918 we have more doctors and nurses to treat the infected in 2020 we reduced the outbreak to 70 million in about 10 months other wise it could have been 100 million in just 2.5 months as we can see.

So guys stay indoors just go out if you REALLY need something, avoid meeting others , wear masks and gloves :)

A 4 m^3 metal block is suspended using a cable in salt water with density 1030 kg/m^3. Tension on the cable is 42600N. What is the weight of the block. What is the density of the block?

Answers

Answer:

The density of the block is 1113.216 kilograms per cubic meter.

The weight of the block is 43669.237 newtons.

Explanation:

According to the Archimedes' Principle, the drag force experimented by the metal block is equal to the weight of the volume of water displace by the block. Besides, the block has a weight that cannot be neglected and experiments a tension from the cable. Given that the metal block is suspended, then we could consider that block is at rest.

From Newton's Laws of Motion we obtain the following equation of equilibrium:

[tex]\Sigma F = T-\rho_{m}\cdot V_{m}\cdot g + \rho_{w}\cdot V_{m}\cdot g = 0[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]T[/tex] - Tension on the cable, measured in newtons.

[tex]\rho_{w}[/tex], [tex]\rho_{m}[/tex] - Densities of salt water and the metal block, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

[tex]V_{m}[/tex] - Volume of the metal block, measured in cubic meters.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that [tex]T = 42600\,N[/tex], [tex]\rho_{w} = 1030\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}[/tex], [tex]V_{m} = 4\,m^{3}[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], then the density of the block is:

[tex]T+\rho_{w}\cdot V_{m}\cdot g = \rho_{m}\cdot V_{m}\cdot g[/tex]

[tex]\rho_{m} = \frac{T+\rho_{w}\cdot V_{m}\cdot g}{V_{m}\cdot g}[/tex]

[tex]\rho_{m} = \frac{42600\,N+\left(1030\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot (4\,m^{3})\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}{(4\,m^{3})\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}[/tex]

[tex]\rho_{m} = 1113.216\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}[/tex]

The density of the block is 1113.216 kilograms per cubic meter.

Lastly, the weight of the block ([tex]W[/tex]), measured in newtons:

[tex]W = \rho_{m}\cdot V_{m}\cdot g[/tex] (2)

[tex]W = \left(1113.216\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}\right)\cdot (4\,m^{3}) \cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)[/tex]

[tex]W = 43669.237\,N[/tex]

The weight of the block is 43669.237 newtons.

A runaway train car that has a mass of 15,000 kg travels at a speed of 5.4 m/s down a track. Compute the time required for a force of 1500 N to bring the car to rest.

Answers

The 1500 N force would need to act in the direction opposite the train car's movement, so if we take the current direction it's moving in to be positive, we have by Newton's second law

-1500 N = (15,000 kg) a   →   a = -0.10 m/s²

If t is the time it takes for the train to come to rest, then

-0.10 m/s² = (0 - 5.4 m/s) / t

t = (5.4 m/s) / (0.10 m/s²)   →   t = 54 s

Answers

Explanation:

In quantum tunneling through a brier, the energy of the tunneled particle is same but the probability amplitude is decreased.
