- Speed is a scalar, a quantity that is described by alone.

Physics
1 answer:
Savatey [412]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Thats is true since it cannot be a vector because speed only gives a magnitude, not a direction as well.

True or false
Zarrin [17]
That depends on what you're calling the 'x-component'.

As you increase the launch angle of a projectile, the vertical component
of its initial velocity increases, and the horizontal component of its initial
velocity decreases.

At the same time, the vertical component of its acceleration is a constant
9.8 m/s² throughout the event, while the horizontal component of its
acceleration is a constant zero.

What is the length of an aluminum rod at 65°C if its length at 15°C is 1.2 meters?
lana66690 [7]

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

The new length is 1.20138 m

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

<u>1- We get the increase in length:</u>

The old length = 1.2 m

The coefficient of expansion of of aluminum is 23 * 10⁻⁶ /K.

The old temperature is 15°C.

The new temperature is 65°C

The increase in length= old length * coefficient of expansion *change in temperature

The increase in length = 1.2 * 23 * 10⁻⁶ * (65-15)

The increase in length = 0.00138 m

<u>2- getting the new length:</u>

new length = old length + increase in length

new length = 1.2 + 0.00138

new length = 1.20138 m

Hope this helps :)

A catapult fires a 0.015kg stone at 70m/s.The spring constant of the catapult is 150N/M. Find the exrtention of the catapult.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

0.495m

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the stone will be equal to the work done by the spring

Mathematically;

W = KE

1/2ke² = 1/2mv²

ke² = mv²

k is the spring constant = 150N/m

e is the extension

m is the mass = 0.015kg

v is the velocity = 70m/s

Substitute

150e² = 1/2 * 0.015 * 70²

150e² = 36.75

e² = 36.75/150

e² =  0.245

e = √0.245

e = 0.495m

Hence the extension of the catapult is 0.495m

The tenancy of a moving object to continue moving in a strait line or a stationary object to remain in place is called
jek_recluse [69]

The tendency of a moving object to continue moving in a straight line or a stationary object to remain in place is called inertia.

According to law of inertia, an object maintains its state of rest or motion unless acted upon by an external force. an object can not move on its own unless force is applied on it to move it. also an object can not come to stop on its own unless acted upon by an external force to stop it.This is also known as newton's first law.
