Can anyone tell me how to read a micrometer screw gauge I want very clear instructions.
Explanation:
Things you need to know:
Accuracy refers to the maximum error encountered when a particular observation is made.
Error in measurement is normally one-half the magnitude of the smallest scale reading.
Because one has to align one end of the rule or device to the starting point of the measurement, the appropriate error is thus twice that of the smallest scale reading.
Error is usually expressed in at most 1 or 2 significant figures.
Tape
Equipment: It is made up of a long flexible tape and can measure objects or places up to 10 – 50 m in length. It has markings similar to that of the rigid rule. The smallest marking could be as small as 0.1 cm or could be as large as 0.5 cm or even 1 cm.
How to use: The zero-mark of the measuring tape is first aligned flat to one end of the object and the tape is stretched taut to the other end, the reading is taken where the other end of the object meets the tape.
Ruler
Equipment: It is made up of a long rigid piece of wood or steel and can measure objects up to 100 cm in length. The smallest marking is usually 0.1 cm.
How to use: The zero-end of the rule is first aligned flat with one end of the object and the reading is taken where the other end of the object meets the rule.
Vernier Caliper
Equipment: It is made up of a main scale and a vernier scale and can usually measure objects up to 15 cm in length. The smallest marking is usually 0.1 cm on the main scale.
It has:
a pair of external jaws to measure external diameters
a pair of internal jaws to measure internal diameters
a long rod to measure depths
How to use: The jaws are first closed to find any zero errors. The jaws are then opened to fit the object firmly and the reading is then taken.
Micrometer Screw Gauge
Equipment: It is made up of a main scale and a thimble scale and can measure objects up to 5 cm in length. The smallest marking is usually 1 mm on the main scale (sleeve) and 0.01 mm on the thimble scale (thimble). The thimble has a total of 50 markings representing 0.50 mm.
It has:
an anvil and a spindle to hold the object
a ratchet on the thimble for accurate tightening (prevent over-tightening)
How to use: The spindle is first closed on the anvil to find any zero errors ( use the ratchet for careful tightening). The spindle is then opened to fit the object firmly (use the ratchet for careful tightening) and the reading is then taken.
To pull a box up a rough slope,the force required will be least when it is applied :
a) horizontaly
b) vertically
c) perpendicular to the plane
d) parallel to the plane
Answer:
The correct option is;
d) Parallel to the plane
Explanation:
The forces acting on the box of mass, m are;
Weight of the box acting an angle, θ, equal to the inclination of the plane to the perpendicular of the plane
Weight of the box acting along the plane = m×g×sin(θ)
The force of friction along the plane = μ×m×g×cos(θ)
The total force acting downward along the plane [tex]F_{down}[/tex], = m×g×sin(θ) + μ×m×g×cos(θ)
The Force needed to pull the box up along the plane F = The total force acting downward along the plane
F = m×g×sin(θ) + μ×m×g×cos(θ) = m×g×(sin(θ) + μ×cos(θ))
When the force, Fₐ is applied vertically, the force acting along the plane = Fₐ×cos(θ)
When the force is applied perpendicular, the force acting along the plane = Fₐ×sin(θ)
When the force is applied horizontally, the force acting along the plane = Fₐ×cos(θ)
When the force is applied parallel to the plane, the force acting along the plane = Fₐ
Therefore, since Fₐ > Fₐ×cos(θ) and Fₐ > Fₐ×sin(θ), for acute angles, we have that the least force is required when the force is acting parallel to the plane.
The north pole of a bar magnet is rapidly introduced into a solenoid at one end (say A). Which of the following statements correctly depicts the phenomenon taking place?
(a) No induced emf is developed.
(b) The end A of the solenoid behaves like a south pole.
(c) The end A of the solenoid behaves like north pole.
(d) The end A of the solenoid acquires positive potential.
Answer:
The correct option is;
(b) The end A of the solenoid behaves like a north pole
Explanation:
According to Lenz's law we have that the induced emf direction in the solenoid due to the rapid introduction of the bar magnet will be such that the electric current induced will have a resultant magnet field that will oppose to the movement of the north pole of the bar magnet that resulted in the magnetic field
Therefore, the opposing magnetic pole to the north pole of a magnet is a north pole and the solenoid end A will act like the north pole.
A man has a mass of 110kg. What is his weight?
His weight depends on where he is, because
Weight = (mass) x (gravity in the place where the mass is) .
For example:
-- If this man is on Mars, his weight is (110 kg) x (3.7 m/s²) = 408 Newtons
-- If he is on the Moon, his weight is (110 kg) x (1.6 m/s²) = 176 Newtons
-- If he is on Earth, his weight is (110 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 1,078 Newtons
-- If he is in a spacecraft coasting from one to another, his weight is zero.

hey help me plzzzzz i will mark brainliest
Answer:
The answer to your question is given below.
Explanation:
Mechanical advantage (MA) = Load (L)/Effort (E)
MA = L/E
Velocity ratio (VR) = Distance moved by load (l) / Distance moved by effort (e)
VR = l/e
Efficiency = work done by machine (Wd) /work put into the machine (Wp) x 100
Efficiency = Wd/Wp x100
Recall:
Work = Force x distance
Therefore,
Work done by machine (wd) = load (L) x distance (l)
Wd = L x l
Work put into the machine (Wp) = effort (E) x distance (e)
Wp = E x e
Note: the load and effort are measured in Newton (N), while the distance is measured in metre (m)
Efficiency = Wd/Wp x100
Efficiency = (L x l) / (E x e) x 100
Rearrange
Efficiency = L/E ÷ l/e x 100
But:
MA = L/E
VR = l/e
Therefore,
Efficiency = L/E ÷ l/e x 100
Efficiency = MA ÷ VR x 100
Efficiency = MA / VR x 100

2.0 MW is to arrive at a large shopping mall over two 0.100Ω lines. Estimate how much power is saved if the voltage is stepped up from 120 V to 1200 V and then down again, rather than simply transmitting at 120 V. Assume the transformers are each 99% efficient.
Answer:
55 MW.
Explanation:
So, we are given the following data or parameters Below;
=> "2.0 MW is to arrive at a large shopping mall over two 0.100Ω line.
=> " the voltage is stepped up from 120 V to 1200 V and then down again, rather than simply transmitting at 120 V."
=> "Assume the transformers are each 99% efficient."
STEP ONE: determine the current in the transmission line.
Output Current, i = Power/ voltage.
Output Current,i = (2.0 MW × 10^6 W/ 1 MW)/120.
Output Current,i = 1.66 × 10^4 A.
Therefore, current in the transmission line = output voltage × output current/99% × line voltage.
= 120 × 1.66 × 10^4/ 99% × 1200 = 1.68 × 10^3 A.
STEP TWO: determine the power loss in the two lines.
Power loss = i^2 × Resistance
Power loss = (1.66 × 10^4 )^2 × 0.1 × 2 = 5.5 × 10^7 watt.
STEP THREE: determine the power generated.
Power generated = 2 × 10^6 +5.5 × 10^7.
Power generated = 5.57 × 10^7 watt.
STEP FOUR: determine the step down transformer power.
= 2 × 10^6/99% = 2.02 × 10^6.
Thus, 2.02 × 10^6 + 5.57 × 10^5 = 2.58 × 10^6 watt.
STEP FIVE: Determine the total power and the saved power.
Total power = 2.58 × 10^6/ 99%= 2.6 × 10^6.
Saved power = 5.7 × 10^7 - 2.6 × 10^6 .
Conversion to MW gives saved power = 55 MW.

can someone proofread my Big freeze theory of the universe? does it make sense?
Answer:
Yes great job it was well written!:)
Proved that
V = u+at
Answer:
[tex]\sf Proof \ below[/tex]
Explanation:
We know that acceleration is change in velocity over time.
[tex]\sf a=\frac{\triangle v}{t}[/tex]
[tex]\sf a=\frac{v-u}{t}[/tex]
v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity.
Solve for v.
Multiply both sides by t.
[tex]\sf at=v-u[/tex]
Add u to both sides.
[tex]\sf at + u=v[/tex]
Answer:
Acceleration = v-u/t when we flip -u and t to right hand side
then -u changes to plus and denominator t changes to numerator
then then this equations becomes v=u+at

The definition of parallel lines requires the terms line and plane while the definition of perpendicular lines requires the undefined terms of line and point.
Answer with explanation:
Complete question is provided in the attachment below.
There are 3 undefined term in geometry :1) A Point 2) A line 3) A Plane.
When two lines are parallel they never meet , so the requirement to define them is lines and a plane on which they lie.
While when two lines are perpendicular , they intersect each other at a point by making a right angle between them.
So it required lines and a point to define it.
A ball is thrown vertically upwards from the roof of a building with an initial velocity of 30 m / s. If it stops in the air 220 m above the ground, what is the height of the building?
Answer:
175 m
Explanation:
Given:
y = 220 m
v₀ = 30 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -10 m/s²
Find: y₀
v² = v₀² + 2a (y − y₀)
(0 m/s)² = (30 m/s)² + 2 (-10 m/s²) (220 m − y₀)
y₀ = 175 m
One solution to minimize resonance with buildings is to ______ the width to span ratio.
Answer:
Increase
Explanation:
Resonance is a phenomenon which occurs when a body A in motion set another body B into motion of it own natural frequency. So for resonance to be minimize in a body is to increase the width to span ratio. So as to reduce the overall vibration which affects directly building resonance, the stiffness or trusses and girders should be increase. The increase in this aspect helps to reinforce building structure and support.

Find the net force of the box and the acceleration. 10 points. Will give brainliest.
Answer:
38.6 N
2.57 m/s²
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram of the box. There are four forces:
Weight force mg pulling down,
Normal force N pushing up,
Friction force Nμ pushing left,
and applied force P pulling at an angle 40°.
Sum of forces in the y direction:
∑F = ma
N + P sin 40° − mg = 0
N = mg − P sin 40°
The net force in the x direction is:
∑F = P cos 40° − Nμ
∑F = P cos 40° − (mg − P sin 40°) μ
∑F = P cos 40° − mgμ + Pμ sin 40°
∑F = P (cos 40° + μ sin 40°) − mgμ
Plugging in values:
∑F = (80 N) (cos 40° + 0.23 sin 40°) − (15 kg) (10 m/s²) (0.23)
∑F = 38.6 N
Net force equals mass times acceleration:
∑F = ma
38.6 N = (15 kg) a
a = 2.57 m/s²

A wave travels at 295 m/s and has a wavelength of 2.50 m. What is the frequency of the wave?
O 118 Hz
O 292 Hz
O297 Hz
O 738 Hz
Answer:
[tex]118\; \rm Hz[/tex].
Explanation:
The frequency [tex]f[/tex] of a wave is equal to the number of wave cycles that go through a point on its path in unit time (where "unit time" is typically equal to one second.)
The wave in this question travels at a speed of [tex]v= 295\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}[/tex]. In other words, the wave would have traveled [tex]295\; \rm m[/tex] in each second. Consider a point on the path of this wave. If a peak was initially at that point, in one second that peak would be
How many wave cycles can fit into that [tex]295\; \rm m[/tex]? The wavelength of this wave[tex]\lambda = 2.50\; \rm m[/tex] gives the length of one wave cycle. Therefore:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{295\;\rm m}{2.50\; \rm m} = 118[/tex].
That is: there are [tex]118[/tex] wave cycles in [tex]295\; \rm m[/tex] of this wave.
On the other hand, Because that [tex]295\; \rm m[/tex] of this wave goes through that point in each second, that [tex]118[/tex] wave cycles will go through that point in the same amount of time. Hence, the frequency of this wave would be
Because one wave cycle per second is equivalent to one Hertz, the frequency of this wave can be written as:
[tex]f = 118\; \rm s^{-1} = 118\; \rm Hz[/tex].
The calculations above can be expressed with the formula:
[tex]\displaystyle f = \frac{v}{\lambda}[/tex],
where
[tex]v[/tex] represents the speed of this wave, and [tex]\lambda[/tex] represents the wavelength of this wave.Answer:

A ball is projected at an angle of elevation of 60 ° with an initial velocity of 120m/s.calculate
1) The time taken to get to the maximum height
ii) the time of flight
Explanation:
It is given that,
The angle of projection is 60 degrees
Initial velocity of the ball is 120 m/s
We need to find the time taken to get to the maximum height and the time of flight.
Time taken to reach the maximum height is given by :
[tex]T=\dfrac{u^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}[/tex]
g is acceleration due to gravity
[tex]T=\dfrac{(120)^2\times \sin^2(60)}{2\times 10}\\\\T=540\ s[/tex]
(ii) Time of flight,
[tex]t=\dfrac{2u\sin\theta}{g}[/tex]
So,
[tex]t=\dfrac{2\times 120\times \sin(60)}{10}\\\\t=20.78\ s[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.
Train cars are coupled together by being bumped into one another. Suppose two loaded train cars are moving toward one another, the first having a mass of 270000 kg and a velocity of 0.325 m/s in the horizontal direction, and the second having a mass of 52500 kg and a velocity of -0.12 m/s in the horizontal direction. What is their final velocity?
Answer:
0.252 m/s
Explanation:
Applying the law of conservation of momentum,
Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision
Note: From the question, The collision between the car and the train is an inelastic collision and as such, both move with a common velocity after collision.
mu+m'u' = V(m+m')................... Equation 1
Where m = mass of the train, u' = initial velocity of the train, m' = mass of the car, u' = initial velocity of the car, V = common velocity after collision.
make V the subject of the equation
V = (mu+m'u')/(m+m')............... Equation 2
Given: m = 270000 kg, u = 0.325 m/s, m' = 52500 kg, u' = -0.12 m/s
Substitute these values into equation 2
V = [(270000×0.325)+{52500(-0.12)}]/(270000+52500)
V = 81450/322500
V = 0.252 m/s

c. the inductive reactance is halved and the capacitive reactance is halved.
d. the inductive reactance is halved and the capacitive reactance is doubled.
e. the reactance of the circuit remains the same.
Answer:
The correct option is
a. The inductive reactance is doubled and the capacitive reactance is halved
Explanation:
For a series RLC circuit, is a resonant circuit such that the impedance, Z, is minimum at the resonance frequency
Also we have that the capacitive reactance [tex]X_C[/tex], is given as follows;
[tex]X_c = \dfrac{1}{\omega \cdot C}[/tex]
Where;
ω = Angular frequency = 2πf
Where;
f = The frequency in the circuit
[tex]\therefore X_c = \dfrac{1}{2 \cdot \pi \cdot f \cdot C}[/tex]
The inductive reactance is also given as follows;
[tex]X_L = \omega \cdot L = 2 \cdot \pi \cdot f \cdot L[/tex]
Therefore, when the circuit frequency doubles, the inductive reactance doubles and the capacitive reactance halves
When the alternating current frequency in a series RLC circuit is halved, the inductive reactance is doubled and the capacitive reactance is halved.
What is an alternating current frequency?An Alternating current (ac) frequency is known to be the amount of cycles per second that can be found in an ac sine wave.
The Frequency is known to be the rate through which the current changes direction in terms of per second. It is said to be often measured in hertz (Hz). Note that the alternating current frequency in a series RLC circuit is halved, the inductive reactance increases and the capacitive reactance is reduced.
