Your friend states in a report that the average time required to circle a 1.5-mi track was 65.414 s. This was measured by timing

7 laps using a clock with a precision of 0.1 s. How much confidence do you have in the results of the report? Explain.

The time per lap was calculated by measuring the time for seven laps and dividing the total time by seven.

total time 65.414 s \times 7 =457.898 s.

It is given that the precision is of 0.1 s. it means it is correct upto 1 place beyond decimal.

So, the actual value could vary from 457.800 s to 457.899 s i.e. the time per lap could be 65.400 s to 65.414 s

It means measured time 65.414 s has maximum error of 0.021%. Hence, the measured value is quite precise.

You are given two rectangular blocks of shiny metal, Block A and Block B, and are asked to determine which one will float in a b
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of block A = 10 x 6 x 1 = 60 cm³

Mass of block A = 630 g

density of mass A = mass / density

= 630 / 60 = 10.5g / cm³

Volume of block B = 5 x 5 x 3 = 75 cm³

Mass of block A = 604 g

density of mass A = mass / density

= 604 / 75 = 8.05 g / cm³

Since density of both A and B are less than that of mercury , both will float in mercury.

An initially neutral glass rod is rubbed with silk. It becomes positively charged by_____.a) electrons are created on the rod.
Dimas [21]

Answer:

e) electrons are transferred from the rod to the silk.

Explanation:

An initially neutral glass rod contains equal number of electron and proton.

If the rod becomes positively charged  after being rubbed with silk, then the rod must have lost some its electron to the silk since electrons are more mobile than protons, leaving the rod with excess positive charge (protons), and the silk will be negatively charged (excess electron).

Thus, the rod becomes positively charged by transfer of electrons from rod to the silk.

e) electrons are transferred from the rod to the silk.

Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of m and n when the time it takes a beam of
schepotkina [342]
If speed = distance/time , then time = speed/distance.

So...

Speed of light = 3*10^8(m/s)
Average distance from Earth to Sun = 149.6*10^9(m)

Therefore, t=(3*10^8(m/s))/(149.6*10^9(m))

I hope this was a helpful explanation, please reply if you have further questions about the problem.

Good luck!
