Significant figures
Significant figures are what we call all those digits in a number that are known for sure (or for which there is a some certainty).

Sensitivity of an instrument
One of the qualities of measuring instruments is their sensitivity. A measuring instrument is more sensitive the smaller the quantity that it is able to measure.

Scientific notation
La notación científica consiste en escribir el resultado de una medición como un producto con dos partes: un número entre 1 y 10 y una potencia de 10.

Scales of observation
The material world which our eyes cannot observe is known as the microscopic scale of observation (cells, atoms, molecules, etc.)

s/t, v/t and a/t graphs
Concept of s/t, v/t and a/t graphs

s/t and v/t graphs of a URM
Which is going faster? The s/t and v/t graphs together or separately.

s/t, v/t and a/t graphs of a UCM
The s/t , v/t and a/t graphs for circular movements are analogous to those for rectilinear movements.

r.p.m. and r.p.s.
The speed of an MCU can be expressed in rpm and in rps (revolutions per minute and revolutions per second).

Rounding a measurement
The result of a measurement should be consistent with the measuring instrument used. How to round: you must already understand the degree of precision in the result of a measurement.

Reflection
When an undulatory movement comes across an obstacle which prevents its propagation and does not absorb its energy, the waves change direction, they are reflected.

Residual current circuit breaker (RCCB)
The residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) is one of the elements of a consumer unit. The following visual explains its function.

Representative value
The representative value of a series of measurements is the one which we think is closest to the real value of the said measurement.

Representation of forces
Forces are represented by means of vectors. A vector is an oriented sector. The following animation representes the characteristics of a vector.

Renewable energy sources
Renewable energy sources are those which after being used can be regenerated naturally or artificially. The following pictures are graphic examples rof enewable energy sources.

Relativistic paradox
If at relativistic speeds bodies decrease in length, would it be possible to shut a large rocket which was travelling at the speed of light in a hangar? The answer to this question constitutes a "relativistic paradox".

Relative movement of the Earth
The educational resource shows a visual about the relative movement of the Earth: our planet is enormous compared to a train, which is why although all the earth moves, it seems to us to be still, and the sky around it the one that moves.
Área de conocimientoContexto educativoTipo de recursoColecciones -
Relative error
The relative error of a measurement is the quotient between the absolute error of the measurement and its real value.

Refraction
Imagine that a wave passes from a deeper zone to another shallow zone, or vice versa. There will be refraction.
