Five groups of four vectors are shown below. All magnitudes of individual vectors are equal. Please rank the groups based on the

magnitude of the resultant vectors if the four vectors in each group were added together. Rank the groups of vectors from the greatest resultant magnitude to the smallest resultant magnitude.

With the addition of vectors we can find that the correct answer is:

   C)   Q> P > R =  S > T

The addition of vectors must be done taking into account that they have modulus and direction. The analytical method is one of the easiest methods, the method to do it is:

  • Set a Cartesian coordinate system
  • Decompose vectors into their components in a Cartesian system
  • Perform the algebraic sums on each axis
  • Find the resultant vector using the Pythagoras' Theorem to find the modulus and trigonometry to find the direction.

In this exercise indicate that the modulus of all vectors is the same, suppose that the value of the modulus is A.

We fix a Cartesian coordinate system with the horizontal x axis and the vertical y axis, we can see that we do not need to perform any decomposition, so we perform the algebraic sums

Diagram P

x-axis

         x = 2A

y-axis  

         y = 2A

The modulus of the resulting vector can be found with the Pythagorean Theorem

          P = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}

          P = \sqrt{4A^2 +4A^2 }= \sqrt{8}  \  A

          P = 2 √2  A

         

Diagram Q

x-axis

        x = 3A

y-axis  

        y = A

Resulting

       Q = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}

       Q =\sqrt{9A^2 + A^2 }  

       Q = \sqrt{10} \ A

       

Diagram R

x- axis

       x = 0

y-axis

        y = 2 A

Resulting

       R =\sqrt{4A^2 + 0}  

       R = \sqrt{4} \ A

Diagram S

x-axis

       x = 2 A

y-axis

        y = 0

 

Resulting

       S = 2A

Diagram T

x- axis

      x = 0

y-axis  

      y = 0

Resultant T = 0

We order the diagram from highest to lowest

    Q> P> R = S> T

When reviewing the different answers, the correct one is:

   C.  Q> P> R = S> T

8. Contrast. The energy that can be released during a nuclear fission reaction with the energy that can be released during a nuc
Cloud [144]
8) the energy released by fusion is generally 3 to 4 times larger than with fission.  Fission has very few by-products but fusion releases large amounts of radioactive particles because it starts with large nuclei.
9) Alpha particles are 2 protons and 2 neutrons all put together.  It's really the nucleus of a helium atom.  It is most dangerous if you ingest it but it can be stopped with a sheet of paper so outside the body it's not as dangerous as others and due to its size it can't get very far in the air before hitting air molecules
beta particles are high energy electrons or positrons.  They travel further due to their small size but can be stopped by a thin barrier of plastic or wood.
Gamma rays are high frequency photons (light)  They are stopped by metal plates and go through human tissue.  They are quite dangerous.
10) The mass that is lost in chemical reactions is very small. Solve E=mc² for mass and you get m=E/c².  This says the mass you lose is equal to the energy you gained divided by the speed of light squared.  c² is a VERY big number so you need a lot of energy produced to notice it.  Chemical reactions are simply too inefficient to get that much energy out.
11)You need high temperatures for fusion because you're trying to push two atoms together (to "fuse" them as the name suggests)  The electrons in one atom repel the other electrons in the other atoms.  When stripped down to only protons, you still have to overcome this repulsion (Coulomb repulsion).  High temperatures means high velocity of the particles in the plasma.  This gives them enough "oomph" to get close enough to fuse.  Once close enough to each other, the nuclear force takes over and overwhelms the Coulomb repulsion and the nuclei fuse and release energy in doing so.

Two particles, each of mass 7.0 kg, are a distance 3.0 m apart. To bring a third particle, with mass 21 kg, from far away to a r
garri49 [273]

Answer: the external agent must do work equal to -1.3 × 10⁻⁸ J

Explanation:

Given that;

Mass M1 = 7.0 kg

r = 3.0/2 m = 1.5 m

Mass M2 = 21 kg

we know that G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

work done by an external agent W = -2GM2M1 / r

so we substitute

W = (-2 × 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ × 21 × 7) / 1.5

W = -1.96098 × 10⁻⁸ / 1.5

W = -1.3 × 10⁻⁸ J

Therefore the external agent must do work equal to -1.3 × 10⁻⁸ J

An outside thermometer reads 57°F. What is this temperature in °C? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
marishachu [46]

Answer: It'd be 14.

Explanation:

The formula for this equation would be (57f-32)×5/9 which is equal to 13.889; and rounding that to the whole number would be 14.
