Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction. Distance is a scalar quantity. It refers only to how far an object has traveled. For example, 4 feet is a distance; it gives no information about direction.
When your Contrasting multiple objects, your looking for any differences that may or may not be their. Think Compare and Contrast if that helps, The answer to this is A
There are three forces acting on the book.
1. Force due to gravity
2. Force exerted downward by the hamster
3. Normal Force in reaction to the downward forces
Since the book is not moving, the net force is zero. The summation of all forces must be zero. Then we could find the normal force which is unknown (denoted as x).
∑F = -(4 kg)(9.81 m/s2) - 3 N + x =0
∑F = -39.24 N - 3N + x =0
x = 42 N
Therefore, the normal force is 42 N.
Answer:
In both cases, energy will move from an area of higher temperature to an area of lower temperature. So, the energy from room-temperature air will move into the cold water, which warms the water.
Explanation:
Kinetic Energy = 1/2mv^2
m= 1200kg
v= 24 m/s
KE = 1/2 (1200kg)(24m/s)^2 = 345,600 N
