It depends on the size of the box.

-- If it's one of the boxes printed on a sheet of graph paper,
then he should report the measurement in millimeters.

-- If it's the box that his new smartphone arrived in, then
he should probably use centimeters.

-- If it's the box that the new tractor was shipped to his
grandfather's farm in, then meters is the best unit.

Answer:

Force applied to smaller cross section is

= 82.63 N

Explanation:

As we know

F_2 A_1 = F_1 A_2

where F1, F2 signifies the weight of the two chair in a hydraulic-lift system

And A_1, A_2 signifies the area of the two respective chairs in a hydraulic-lift system

Given -

F2=1400 N

A1 =1220 Square centimeter

A_2 = 72 Square centimeter

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

1400 * 72 = F1 * 1220\\F2 = 82.63

Force applied to smaller cross section is

= 82.63 N

A ship sends out a 1200 Hz sound wave, which has a wavelength of 120 cm in the water. What would happen if that ship sent out a
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

the wave length becomes doubled or becomes two times the initial wavelength = 240 cm

Explanation:

From wave,

v = λf................ Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the wave, λ = wavelength of the wave, f = frequency of the wave.

Given: f = 1200 Hz, λ = 120 cm = 1.2 m

Substitute into equation 1

v = 1200(1.2)

v = 1440 m/s.

When the ship sent out a 600 Hz sound wave,

make λ the subject of formula in equation 1

λ = v/f............. Equation 2

Given: f = 600 Hz, v = 1440 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

λ = 1440/600

λ = 2.4 m or 240 cm.

When the ship sent out a 600 Hz sound wave instead, the wave length becomes doubled or becomes two times the initial wavelength = 240 cm

Starting at point 0, you travel 500 m on a straight road that slopes upward at a constant angle of 5 degrees. What is your heigh
ira [324]

Answer:

43.58 m

Explanation:

If you travel 500 m on a straight road that slopes upward at a constant angle of 5 degrees

Using trigonometry ratio

Sin 5 = opposite/hypothenus

Where the hypothenus = 500m

Opposite = height h

Sin 5 = h/500

Cross multiply

500 × sin 5 = h

h = 500 × 0.08715

h = 43.58m

Therefore, the height above the starting point is equal to 43.58m

Lisa [10]

On comparing values , we see that student which has the largest percent error is <u>A. Student 4: 9.61 m/s2 .</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here, we have Four students measured the acceleration of gravity. The accepted value for their location is 9.78m/s2. Let's calculate which student’s measurement has the largest percent error :

<u>A. Student 4: 9.61 m/s2 </u>

Percentage of error  = \frac{9.78-9.61}{9.78} (100) = 1.738% %.

<u>B. Student 3: 9.88 m/s2 </u>

Percentage of error  = \frac{9.88-9.78}{9.78} (100) = 1.022% %.

<u>C. Student 2: 9.79 m/s2 </u>

Percentage of error  = \frac{9.79-9.78}{9.78} (100) = 0.1022%% .

<u>D. Student 1: 9.78 m/s2</u>

Percentage of error  = \frac{9.78-9.61}{9.78} (100) = 0%% .

On comparing values , we see that student which has the largest percent error is <u>A. Student 4: 9.61 m/s2 .</u>
