The least number of component of a vector quantity is two. These are the x-component and the y-component. 

The resultant vector, or vector as we refer to it in this item, can be calculated through the equation,
              RV = sqrt ((Vx)² + (Vy)²)

From the equation, it can be noted that if we let Vx equal to zero,
              RV = Vy

Similarly, if we let Vy be equal to zero then,
             RV = Vx

Thus, it is still possible for the vector to become nonzero even if one of its components is zero.

Answer:

car B will be 30 Km ahead of car A.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the distance travelled by each car. This is illustrated below:

For car A:

Speed = 40 km/h

Time = 3 hours

Distance =?

Speed = distance / time

40 = distance / 3

Cross multiply

Distance = 40 × 3

Distance = 120 Km

For car B:

Speed = 50 km/h

Time = 3 hours

Distance =?

Speed = distance / time

50 = distance / 3

Cross multiply

Distance = 50 × 3

Distance = 150 Km

Finally, we shall determine the distance between car B an car A. This can be obtained as follow:

Distance travelled by car B (D₆) = 150 Km

Distance travelled by car A (Dₐ) = 120 Km

Distance apart =?

Distance apart = D₆ – Dₐ

Distance apart = 150 – 120

Distance apart = 30 Km

Therefore, car B will be 30 Km ahead of car A.

Come si esprime il numero 0,00123 in notazione scientifica?
Inessa [10]

Answer:

0,00123 = 1,2*10^{-3}

Explanation:

To write down correctly the number 0,00123 in scientific notation, you take into account that the scientific notation demands that there in only one number after the comma ( , ). Furthermore, it is necessary that you move the comma to the right of the first number different of zero, in this case the number 1. To do this you move the comma three positions.

Then, you have to multiply the expresion 1.23 by 10 with an exponential -3 (because of the movement of the comma in three positions). That is:

0,00123 = 1,23*10^{-3}

But it is mandatory that nly one number can stay after the comma, so, you approximate the number three. In this case, the number is lower than 5, hence, you approximate 3 to 0.

Finally, you have:

0,00123 = 1,2*10^{-3}

A spring with spring constant of 33 N/m is stretched 0.15 m from its equilibrium position. How much work must be done to stretch
Hoochie [10]

Work done is 0.442J

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Spring constant, k = 33 N/m

Distance, x₁ = 0.15m

Additional distance, x₂ = 0.072 m

Total distance = 0.15 + 0.072 m

                        = 0.222 m

Work done, W = ?

We can calculate work done by the formula

W = \frac{1}{2}kx_2^2 - \frac{1}{2}kx_1^2

On substituting the value we get:

W = \frac{1}{2}k [(x_2)^2  - (x_1)^2]\\ \\W = \frac{1}{2} X 33[(0.222)^2 - (0.15)^2]\\ \\W = \frac{1}{2}X 33 [ 0.0493 - 0.0225]\\ \\W = 0.442 J

Therefore, work done is 0.442J
