The best improvement to these instructions that Keisha can make
immediately and easily is to describe where the instructions start from. 

Does the route start from Keisha's house ?  From her friend's house ? 
From my house ? 

Knowledge of the coordinate reference frame makes a big difference,
and it's essential.

Answer;

providing a reference point to follow

Explanation;

A reference point is a starting point you choose to describe the location, or position, of an object.

A reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. A reference point is some point in space used to describe the position of other things, relative to this reference point.

This type of listening response is called back-channel signal. This allows the speaker to know that the listener is attentive or willing to engage a conversation between them. It is shown through short utterances, facial expressions, head nods and others.

Martin is conducting an experiment. His first test gives him a yield of 5.2 grams. His second test gives him a yield of 1.3 gram
Bogdan [553]

Complete Question

Martin is conducting an experiment. His first test gives him a yield of 5.2 grams. His second test gives him a yield of 1.3 grams. His third test gives him a yield of 8.5 grams. On average, his yield is 5.0 grams, which is close to the known yield of 5.1 grams of substance. Which of the following are true?

A His results are accurate but not precise.

B His results are neither accurate nor precise.

C His results are both accurate and precise

D His results are precise but not accurate.

Answer:

Correct option is A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

   The  yield of the first test k  =  5.2 \  g

   The  yield of the second  is  u =  1.3 \  g

   The  third yield is  p =  8.5 \  g

   The  average yield  A = 5.0 \ g

    The  know yield is  A_S =  5.1 \  g

From the data given we see that

        A_S \ne A

Since his average yield is closer to the known yield then the answer is accurate

But since the yield for each test are not repeated the answer is not precise

So the answer is accurate but not precise

Which of the following statements about electric field lines associated with electric charges is false? Electric field lines can
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The false statement is 'Electric field lines form closed loops'.

Explanation:

  • Electric field lines originate from positive end and terminates at negative end,i.e., field lines are inward in direction to the negative charges and outward from the positive charges.
  • These lines when close together represents high intensity and when far apart shows low intensity of the field.
  • These lines do not intersect, as the tangent drawn on these lines provides us with the field direction and intersection of these lines means two field directions which is not possible.
  • These lines unlike magnetic field lines do not form closed loops as they do not turn around but originate at positive end and terminates at negative end which ensures no loop formation.

A 1500-kg car locks its brakes and skids to a stop on a slippery horizontal road, leaving skid marks that are 15 m long. How muc
Harman [31]

Answer:

E=88200\ J

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of car, m=1500\ kg
  • distance of skidding after the application of brakes, d=15\ m
  • coefficient of kinetic friction, \mu_k=0.4

<u>So, the energy dissipated during the skidding of car:</u>

<em>Frictional force:</em>

f=\mu_k.N

where N = normal reaction by ground on the car

f=0.4\ties 1500\times 9.8

f=5880\ N

<em>Now from the work-energy equivalence:</em>

E=f.d

E=5880\times 15

E=88200\ J is the dissipated energy.

Somewhere in the vast flat tundra of planet Tehar, a projectile is launched from the ground at an angle of 60 degrees. It reache
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

R = 0.0503 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile launching exercise, to find the range we can use the equation

       R = v₀² sin 2θ / g

How we know the maximum height

      v_{f}² =v_{oy}² - 2 g y

      v_{f}= 0

      v_{oy} = √ 2 g y

      v_{oy} = √ 2 9.8 / 15

      v_{oy} = 1.14 m / s

Let's use trigonometry to find the speed

    sin θ = v_{oy} / vo

    vo = v_{oy} / sin θ

    vo = 1.14 / sin 60

    vo = 1.32 m / s

We calculate the range with the first equation

     R = 1.32² sin(2 60) / 30

    R = 0.0503 m
