Physics

Jet001 [13]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A. Speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.

Explanation:

A scalar quantity is one that consists of only a numerical value.

Speed is a scalar quantity because only the instantaneous value is indicated, for example the speedometer of a car that tells you your speed at the moment but not where you are going or in what direction are you going.

On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity. Because it is composed of a <u>magnitude and a direction</u>, for example 10m/s to the south is a velocity, and 10m/s is a speed.

The electric field between square the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor has magnitude E. The potential across the plates is m
Helga [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field between the plates is half its initial value.

Explanation:

We know the electric field E = V/d where V = voltage applied and d = separation between plates.

Since V is constant and V = Ed,

So, E₁d₁ = E₂d₂ where E₁ = initial electric field at separation d₁, d₁ = initial separation of plates, E₂ = final electric field at separation d₂ and d₂ = final separation of plates.

So, E₂ = E₁d₁/d₂

Now, the distance between the plates is twice their original separation. Thus, d₂ = 2d₁

So, E₂ = E₁d₁/2d₁ = E₁/2

So, E₂ = E₁/2

Thus, the magnitude of the electric field between the plates is half its initial value.

Which part of the ear receives the signal from the eardrum?​
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Ossicles

Explanation:

Sound causes eardrums to vibrate. These vibrations are then passed on to the ossicles, which is made up of 3 small bones-- the malleus, incus, and stapes. The stapes are connected to the inner ear, specifically to the cochlea which transforms sound waves into electrical signals that are sent to the brain.
