Direction. Velocity is a vector that describes both speed and direction, while speed is a scalar that describes only speed regardless of direction.

When you must add three vectors together, what is not true this process? You must only give a magnitude of the resultant vector
vovangra [49]

The addition of any numbers of vector provide the magnitude as well as the direction of the resultant vector, hence the mentioned first option is not true.

The addition of vector required to connect the head of the one vector with the tail of the other vector and any vector can be moved in the plane parallet to the previous location, so, the mentioned second and third options are true.

A motorcycle accelerated from 10 metre per second to 30 metre per second in 6 seconds. How far did it travel in this time ?
Ber [7]
U=10 m/s
v=30 m/s
t=6 sec

therefore, a=(v-u)/t
                   =(30-10)/6
                   =(10/3) ms^-2

now, displacement=ut+0.5*a*t^2
                              =60+ 0.5*(10/3)*36
                              =120 m
And you can solve it in another way:

v^2=u^2+2as
or, s=(v^2-u^2)/2a
       =(900-100)/6.6666666.......
       =120 m

Suppose a spring has a relaxed length of 28.3 cm. The simulation refers to this as the natural length. This is the length of the
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Normal length of spring = 28.3 cm

stretched length of spring = 38.2 cm

length of extension = 38.2 - 28.3 = 9.9 cm

= 9.9 x 10⁻² m

force applied to stretch = .55 x 9.8 ( mg )

= 5.39 N

Force constant = force applied / extension

= 5.39 / 9.9 x 10⁻²

= .5444 x 10² N /m

= 54.44 N/m

omeli [17]

Answer:

An elliptical orbit is the revolving of one object around another in an oval-shaped path called an ellipse. The planets in the solar system orbit the sun in elliptical orbits. Many satellites orbit the Earth in elliptical orbits as does the moon.

Calculate the pressure exerted on the floor by the boy standing on both feet if the weight of the boy is 40kg. Assume that the a
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

P = 1333.33 N

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by the boy on the floor can be calculated by the following equation:

P = \frac{F}{A}

where,

P = Pressure exerted by the boy = ?

F = Force Applied = Weight of Boy = 40 kg = 40 N (since 1 kg = 1N)

A = Area of application of force = 2(Area of one show) = 2(6 cm x 25 cm)

A = 2(0.06 m x 0.25 m) = 0.03 m²

Therefore,

P = \frac{40\ N}{0.03\ m^2}\\\\

<u>P = 1333.33 N</u>
