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

Two objects with the same mass move with the same speed but in opposite directions. Compare their kinetic energies.
ddd [48]

Answer:

A.  Kinetic energies are equal.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the bodies will be equal since the mass and speed are the same.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body.

Mathematically;

           K.E  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the speed

 The kinetic energy is a scalar quantity with no regard for direction.

Afina-wow [57]

Explanation:

Understanding that stars are naturally quite hot, imagine I pulled a piece of hot iron from a furnace. It would glow a bright red, and then slowly fade to black as the iron cools.

White dwarfs glow for the same reason - they are HOT!
