Answer: Yes it is possible to turn a vector to a scalar.

Explanation:

Vectors and scalars represent different types of physical quantities. However, it is sometimes necessary for them to interact. Adding a scalar to a vector is impossible because of their different dimensions in space. Although It is possible to multiply a vector by a scalar.

1. Consider three objects: Object A is a hoop of mass m and radius r; Object B is a sphere

Zarrin [17]

a) Object C (the disk) has the greatest rotational inertia ( $\frac{3}{2}mr^2$ )

b) Object B (the sphere) has the smallest rotational inertia ( $\frac{4}{5}mr^2$ )

Explanation:

The moments of inertia of the three objects are the following:

1) For a hoop of negligible thickness, it is

$I=MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the hoop in this problem,

M = m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=(m)(r)^2=mr^2$

2) For a solid sphere, the moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{2}{5}MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the sphere in this problem,

M = 2m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{2}{5}(2m)(r)^2=\frac{4}{5}mr^2$

3) For a disk of negligible thickness, the moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{1}{2}MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the disk in this problem,

M = 3m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{1}{2}(3m)(r)^2=\frac{3}{2}mr^2$

So now we can answer the two questions:

a) Object C (the disk) has the greatest rotational inertia ( $\frac{3}{2}mr^2$ )

b) Object B (the sphere) has the smallest rotational inertia ( $\frac{4}{5}mr^2$ )

A wave traveling in the positive x-direction with a frequency of 50.0 Hz is shown in the figure below. Find the following values

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. The amplitude is the measure of the height of the wave from the midline to the top of the wave or the midline to the bottom of the wave (called crests). The midline then divides the whole height in half. Thus, the amplitude of this wave is 9.0 cm.

b. Wavelength is measured from the highest point of one wave to the highest point of the next wave (or from the lowest point of one wave to the lowest point of the next wave, since they are the same). The wavelength of this wave then is 20.0 cm. or $\lambda=20.0cm$

c. The period, or T, of a wave is found in the equation

$f=\frac{1}{T}$ were f is the frequency of the wave. We were given the frequency, so we plug that in and solve for T:

$50.0=\frac{1}{T}$ so

$T=\frac{1}{50.0}$ and

T = .0200 seconds to the correct number of sig fig's (50.0 has 3 sig fig's in it)

d. The speed of the wave is found in the equation

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$ and since we already have the frequency and we solved for the wavelength already, filling in:

$50.0=\frac{v}{20.0}$ and

v = 50.0(20.0) so

v = 1.00 × 10³ m/s

And there you go!

How is the voltage V across the resistor related to the current I and the resistance R of the resistor? (Use I for current and R

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

This relationship is explained by Ohm's law

Explanation:

Ohm's law states that the current flowing through a circuit or a resistor is directly proportional to the voltage across the resistor and inversely proportional to the resistance. Where current is i, voltage is v and resistance is r, Ohm's law can be represented mathematically as

V= IR
