) is it possible for one component of a vector to be zero, while the vector itself is not zero?
Natalka [10]
The least number of component of a vector quantity is two. These are the x-component and the y-component. 

The resultant vector, or vector as we refer to it in this item, can be calculated through the equation,
              RV = sqrt ((Vx)² + (Vy)²)

From the equation, it can be noted that if we let Vx equal to zero,
              RV = Vy

Similarly, if we let Vy be equal to zero then,
             RV = Vx

Thus, it is still possible for the vector to become nonzero even if one of its components is zero.

True or false: objects fall toward earth at a rate of 9.8 m/s because of centripetal force.
Citrus2011 [14]
Sadly, no. The statement kind of has some appropriate words in it, but it's badly corrupted. Objects don't fall to Earth at a rate of 9.8 m/s, and the force that accelerates them downward is not a centripetal one.

Describe the benefits and risks associated with nuclear energy.
Ulleksa [173]

Producing nuclear energy is far more environmentally friendly than burning fossil fuels. That is the main benefit.

The main risk is radiation. If the nuclear waste is not properly disposed of, it can leak radiation into the environment. Fortunately, this is not an issue since there are ways to deal with it. There is also the risk of a disaster like the Chernobyl incident, however that was mostly due to faulty reactor construction. However, reactors today are built to avoid such issues.

A baseball is thrown at an angle of 25 degrees relative to the ground at a speed of 23 m/s. If the ball was caught 42 m from the
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

a) v_{0y} = 9.72 m/s

b) v_{0x} = 20.85 m/s

c) t = 2.01 s

d) h_{max} = 4.82 m

Explanation:

a) The initial vertical velocity is given by:

v_{0y} = v*sin(\theta)

Where:

θ: 25°

v: is the magnitude of the speed = 23 m/s

v_{0y} = 23 m/s*sin(25) = 9.72 m/s

b) The initial horizontal velocity can be calculated as follows:

v_{0x} = v*cos(\theta) = 23 m/s*cos(25) = 20.85 m/s

c) The flight time can be calculated using the following equation:

v_{0x} = \frac{x}{t}

Where:

x: is the total distance = 42 m

t = \frac{x}{v_{0x}} = \frac{42 m}{20.85 m/s} = 2.01 s

d) The maximum height is given by:

v_{fy}^{2} = v_{0y}^{2} - 2gh_{max}

Where:

v_{fy}: is the final vertical velocity =0 (at the maximum heigth)

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h_{max} = \frac{v_{0y}^{2}}{2g} = \frac{(9.72 m/s)^{2}}{2*9.81 m/s^{2}} = 4.82 m

I hope it helps you!

A 20 newton weight is attached to a spring, causing it to stretch, as shown in the diagram below. What is the spring constant of
Whitepunk [10]

A 20.-N force stretches the spring by 1.00 m - 0.50 m = 0.50 m, so by Hooke's law the spring constant is k such that

20. N = k (0.50 m)

⇒   k = (20. N) / (0.50 m) = 40 N/m
