Students in Dr. Branch's physics class were calculating the average time required for one complete period of a pendulum bob. They set up five pendulums and timed the swing for each one twenty-five times. Then they calculated the average period time One set of data varied significantly from the other sets. What could be one source of unavoidable error that influenced the data?

A) reading the stop watch incorrectly

B) stop watch starts with one second on the clock

C) not starting the timer at exactly the “go” call

D) students not paying attention to data collection

Imagine you had to physically add electrons, one at a time, to a previously neutral conductor. you add one electron very easily, but the second electron requires more work. in your initial post to the discussion, explain why this is. also, what happens to the work needed to add the third, fourth, fifth, and subsequent electrons

Consider a one meter long horizontal pipe with a constant 100 cm^2 cross sectional area. water flows rightward into the pipe at x = 0 with flow velocity 02m/sec at every point within the pipe intake area. at x=1, the rightward flow rate is 0.192 m/sec. assume the water is a conserved quantity in the pipe, so there must be a leak (a sink) somewhere in the pipe. 1. compute net volumetric flow of the source if the system to be in equilibrium. 2. now assume the pipe in the problem has no leaks. compute the net volumetric rate of change for the system.
