Answer:

Absolute error=0.006

Percentage Relative error=0.6

Explanation:

The resistors have resistance of 24 ohm and 8 ohm.

The change in resistance is 0.5 and 0.3 ohm respectively.

Relative error for parallel combination of resistors is

= dR/R²

= dR1/R1² + dR2/R2²

= 0.5/(24)² + 0.3/(8)²

= 0.5/ 24*24 + 0.3/ 64

= 0.5/576+0.3/ 64

= 32 + 172.8/ 36,864

=204.8/ 36,864=0.0055

=0.006

Percentage error =Relative error *100

= 0.006* 100 = 0.6

Based on what you've learned about heat energy, explain the factors that would determine how quickly a piece of meat cooked on a
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer and Explanation:

Heat is a form of energy. It is the total energy of a system associated to the the movement of its molecules or molecular motion.

It depends on various factors like enthalpy of the system, its pressure, temperature, etc.

In the case mentioned, the pace at which meat is cooked on a barbecue grill depends on the water content of the meat and the barbecue grill temperature.

The reason for the cooking speed being affected by amount of water in the is that meat heat energy required to remove the excess water for the proper cooking depends on the water content which if removed completely will result in uncooked meat.

The more the water content the more is the energy requirement to remove it.

Someone who wants to sell you a Superball claims that it will bounce to a height greater than the height from which it is droppe
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Unless there are other external forces, this will never be true. Because according to energy conservation, potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy as the ball falls down (so it loses height and gain speed). And vice versa, kinetic to potential when it bounces back. So the potential energy after must be the same (or smaller if losing heat to external environment), so it can only get the the same height or less, but not more.

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The force constant of the spring is 317.8 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency f=7.0\times10^{13}\ Hz

We need to calculate the reduced mass

Using formula of reduced mass

\mu=\dfrac{m_{H}m_{I}}{m_{H}+m_{I}}

Where, m_{H}= atomic mass of H

m_{I}= atomic mass of I

Put the value into the formula

\mu=\dfrac{1\times126.9}{1+126.9}

\mu=0.99\ u

\mu=0.99\times1.66\times10^{-27}\ Kg

\mu=1.643\times10^{-27}\ kg

We need to calculate the force constant of the spring

Using formula of frequency

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\times\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{\mu}}

k=f^2\times 4\pi^2\times\mu

Put the value into the formula

k=(7.0\times10^{13})^2\times4\pi^2\times1.643\times10^{-27}

k=317.8\ N/m

Hence, The force constant of the spring is 317.8 N/m.
