describe how acceleration and velocity are related and specify if these are scalar and vector quantities

Physics

vitfil [10]3 years ago

Velocity is the rate of change in distance over change in time, this can be written as:

v = Δd / Δt

While acceleration is the rate of change in velocity over change in time, this is written as:

a = Δv / Δt

 

<span>Both quantities are vector quantities because negative values means that the acceleration or velocity is acting on the opposite direction.</span>

A 1-kg iron frying pan is placed on a stove. The pan increases from 20°C to 250°C. If the same amount of heat is added to a pan
Nesterboy [21]

Answer;

The temperature change for the second pan will be lower compared to the temperature change of the first pan

Explanation;

-The quantity of heat is given by multiplying mass by specific heat and by temperature change.

That is; Q = mcΔT

This means; the quantity of heat depends on the mass, specific heat capacity of a substance and also the change in temperature.

-Maintaining the same quantity of heat, with another pan of the same mass and greater specific heat capacity would mean that the change in temperature would be much less lower.

16. For this table of data, how should the y-axis be labeled (with units)?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The y-axis should be labelled as W in Newtons (kg·m/s²)

Explanation:

The given data is presented here as follows;

Mass (kg)            {}        Newtons (kg·m/s²)

3.2                      {}           31.381

4.6             {}                    45.1111

6.1              {}                    59.821

7.4              {}                    72.569

9                {}                     89.241

10.4              {}                   101.989

10.9              {}                  106.892

From the table, it can be seen that there is a nearly linear relationship between the  amount of Newtons and the  mass, as the slope of the data has a relatively constant slope

Therefore, the data can be said to be a function of Weight in Newtons to the mass in kilograms such that the weight depends on the mass as follows;

W(m) in Newtons = Mass, m in kg × g

Where;

g is the constant of proportionality

Therefore, the y-axis component which is the dependent variable is the function, W(m) = Weight of the body while the x-axis component which is the independent variable is the mass. m

The graph of the data is created with Microsoft Excel give the slope which is the constant of proportionality, g = 9.8379, which is the acceleration due to gravity g ≈ 9.8 m/s²

We therefore label the y-axis as W in Newtons (kg·m/s²)

How much current will pass through a 12.5 ohm resistor when it is connected to ta 115 volt source of electrical potential?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

9.2 amperes

Explanation:

Ohm's law states that the voltage V across a conductor of resistance R is given by V = R I

Here, voltage V is proportional to the current I.

For voltage, unit is volts (V)

For current, unit is amperes (A)

For resistance, unit is Ohms (Ω)

Put R = 12.5 and V = 115 in V=RI

115=12.5I\\I=\frac{115}{12.5}\\ =9.2\,\,amperes

The moment of inertia of a thin uniform rod of mass M and length L about an Axis perpendicular to the rod through its Centre is
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

I = I₀ + M(L/2)²

Explanation:

Given that the moment of inertia of a thin uniform rod of mass M and length L about an Axis perpendicular to the rod through its Centre is I₀.

The parallel axis theorem for moment of inertia states that the moment of inertia of a body about an axis passing through the centre of mass is equal to the sum of the moment of inertia of the body about an axis passing through the centre of mass and the product of mass and the square of the distance between the two axes.

The moment of inertia of the body about an axis passing through the centre of mass is given to be I₀

The distance between the two axes is L/2 (total length of the rod divided by 2

From the parallel axis theorem we have

I = I₀ + M(L/2)²
