Match the measuring instrument with the appropriate statement.
yaroslaw [1]

<u>Answer:</u>

1A, 2E, 3C, 4F, 5B, 6D

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Tilt meter is a an equipment used to measure very small changes from vertical level. So it is a correct match for blank space in statement A.

  Richter Scale is a scale of measurement of earthquake strength, So it is a correct match for blank space in statement E.

 Mercalli Intensity Scale measures effect of an earthquake, like damage caused.So it is a correct match for blank space in statement C.

  Seismograph is earthquake wave measuring instrument. So it is a correct match for blank space in statement F.

  Correlation Spectrometer (C.O.S.P.E.C.) is used to measure sulfur dioxide content in smoke. So it is a correct match for blank space in statement B.

  Moment Magnitude Scale is an earthquake measuring scale for great earthquakes. So it is a correct match for blank space in statement D.

The weights of a large number of miniature poodles are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 99 kilograms and a stan
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

As I say in the comments, the question is incomplete, however, I will try to answer this by using data that I found on another site.

This is the part of the question that is not here:

If measurements are recorded to the nearest

tenth of a kilogram, find the fraction of these poodles

with weights

(a) over 9.5 kilograms;

(b) of at most 8.6 kilograms;

So, assuming a mean of 8 kg, and 0.9 of standard deviation, let X represents the weight of the poodles

The expression to calculate the fraction of poodle needed is:

Z = X - u / d

u: weight of the large number of poodle

d: standard deviation

Replacing data of a) wer have:

Z = 9.5 - 8 / 0.9

Z = 1.67

With this value, we need to take the value of Z, and see the area under the curve of standard deviation (see table attached)

Therefore:

P (X > 9.5) = P(Z > 1.67) = 0.5 - P (Z < 1.67) = 0.5 - 0.4525 = 0.0475

b) In this part, is the same as part a) so:

Z = 8.6 - 8 / 0.9 = 0.67

The value for area in the curve is 0.2486 so:

P = 0.5 + 0.2486 = 0.7486

Hope this helps

A satellite completes one revolution of a planet in almost exactly one hour. At the end of one hour, the satellite has traveled
sesenic [268]
Velocity =

(distance between start point and end point, regardless of the route traveled) / (time spent traveling).

That distance (called the "displacement"), is 10 meters, and almost exactly 1 hour is almost exactly 3,600 seconds. So the numerical value of the velocity during that time is

(10) / (3,600) = almost exactly 0.00278 m/s

= 2.78 x 10^-3 m/s.

A block of mass 3m is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface, and a second block of mass m is placed on top of the first bl
tatuchka [14]

By Newton's second law, assuming <em>F</em> is horizontal,

• the net <u>horizontal</u> force on the <u>larger</u> block is

<em>F</em> - <em>µmg</em> = 3<em>mA</em>

where <em>µmg</em> is the magnitude of friction felt by the larger block due to rubbing with the smaller one, <em>µ</em> is the coefficient of static friction between the two blocks, and <em>A</em> is the block's acceleration;

• the net <u>vertical</u> force on the <u>larger</u> block is

4<em>mg</em> - 3<em>mg</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0

where 4<em>mg</em> is the mag. of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the combined mass of the two blocks, 3<em>mg</em> is the weight of the larger block, and <em>mg</em> is the weight of the smaller block;

• the net <u>horizontal</u> force on the <u>smaller</u> block is

<em>µmg</em> = <em>ma</em>

where <em>µmg</em> is again the friction between the two blocks, but notice that this points in the same direction as <em>F</em>. It is the only force acting on the smaller block in the horizontal direction, so (b) static friction is causing the smaller block to accelerate;

• the net <u>vertical</u> force on the <u>smaller</u> block is

<em>mg</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0

where <em>mg</em> is the magnitude of both the normal force of the larger block pushing up on the smaller one, and the weight of the smaller block.

(You should be able to draw your own FBD's based on the forces mentioned above.)

(c) Solve the equations above for <em>A</em> and <em>a</em> :

<em>A</em> = (<em>F</em> - <em>µmg</em>) / (3<em>m</em>)

<em>a</em> = <em>µg</em>
