Which statement is true?

Physics
1 answer:
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.

What is the most violent star death called
gogolik [260]
Hi there!

The most violent star death is a Supernova. This is the massive explosion of a supergiant star as it's fuel source runs out and it can no longer fuse iron at its core safely. This causes the star to swell to unstable sizes until it explodes in a Supernova. The amount of energy that is output during a supernova is equivalent to all the energy our own Sun outputs in its whole lifetime.

Describe the process of sexual reproduction in terms of the life cycle of cells.
umka2103 [35]
The first growth phase (G1): During the G1 stage, the cell doubles in size and doubles the number of organelles.

The synthesis phase (S): The DNA is replicated during this phase. In other words, an identical copy of all the cell’s DNA is made. This ensures that each new cell has a set of genetic material identical to that of the parental cell. This process is called DNA replication.

The second growth phase (G2): Proteins are synthesized that will help the cell divide. At the end of interphase, the cell is ready to enter mitosis.

What is the speed over the ground of a mosquito flying 2 m/s relative to the air against a 2 m/s headwind?
salantis [7]

We have that the speed over the ground of a mosquito flying 2 m/s relative to the air against a 2 m/s headwind is

X=0m/s

From the question we are told that

mosquito flying 2 m/s

against a 2 m/s headwind

Generally

The speed over the ground is the Flight Speed minus resistance speed

Generally the equation for the  speed over the ground  is mathematically given as

X=Flight Speed-resistance speed

Therefore

X=2-2

X=0m/s

Which of the following can easily be studied objectively? history meteorology sociology theology
Vilka [71]
<h2>Answer: meteorology </h2>

Explanation:

From the given options , meteorology is the only one that can be studied objectively, since it is an interdisciplinary science that relies on basic sciences such as physics and mathematics and applied sciences to the study of the atmosphere, the weather, the phenomena produced and the physical laws that govern it. In addition, meteorology uses objective techniques to study and predict the various phenomena that occur in the atmosphere.

Unlike history, sociology and theology, in which there is a possibility of the existence of some data are subjective and not true or only based on opinions <u>without scientific evidence</u>.

A laser used for many applications of hard surface dental work emits 2780-nm wavelength pulses of variable energy (0-300 mJ) abo
Bess [88]

Answer:

a

    n =  1.119 *10^{18} \ photons

b

  P  =  1.6 \ W

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The wavelength is  \lambda  =  2780 nm =  2780 *10^{-9} \ m

     The  energy  is  E =  80 mJ  =  80 *10^{-3} \ J

This energy is mathematically represented as

     E   = \frac{n  *  h *  c }{\lambda }

Where  c is the speed of light with a value  c =  3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s

             h is the Planck's  constant with the value  h  =  6.626 *10^{-34} \ J \cdot s

             n is the number of pulses

So

      n =  \frac{E * \lambda }{h * c }

substituting values

       n =  \frac{80 *10^{-3} *  2780 *10^{-9}}{6.626 *10^{-34} * 3.0 *10^{8} }

       n =  1.119 *10^{18} \ photons

Given that the pulses where emitted 20 times in one second then the period of the pulse is

       T  =  \frac{1}{20}

      T = 0.05 \ s

Hence the average power of photons in one 80-mJ pulse during 1 s is mathematically represented as

       P  =  \frac{E}{T}

substituting values

       P  =  \frac{ 80 *10^{-3}}{0.05}

        P  =  1.6 \ W
