Assuming you can read the micrometer to one-tenth of its smallest scale division, and can count fringe shifts with complete certainty, how much should the arm length be changed to guarantee a wavelength result with less than 5 percent uncertainty ?

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2

Shafts are machine elements that are used to a) carry axial loads b) direct shear loads c) transmit power d) rotate at constant speed e) none of the above circular and square shafts subjected to the same torque under the same circum behave a) the same way b) almost the same way

Abarometer contains mercury with a density of 13600 kg/m3. atmospheric conditions are 95.8 kpa and 20 °c at 20 °c, the vapor pressure of the mercury is 0.000173 kpa. the column of mercury will rise to a height of most nearly. select one: a)- 0.38 m b)- 0.82 m c)- 0.48 m d)- 0.72 m
