What does it mean tha velocity is vector quantity

1 answer:

Wewaii [24]3 years ago

7 0

It means that velocity not only has a size, but it also has a direction.

Some other vector quantities are force and acceleration.
They have sizes and directions.

Temperature, cost, and weight are quantities with only size and no direction.
Those are called "scalar" quantities.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The required frequency = 0.442 Hz

Explanation:

Frequency $f = ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi}) \omega$

where;

$\omega = \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m} }$

Then;

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m} } \Bigg )$

However;

$k = \dfrac{F}{x}$ and;

mass $m = m_{car } + m_{person}$

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{\dfrac{F}{x}}{m_{car}+m_{person}} } \Bigg )$

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{{F}}{x(m_{car}+m_{person})} } \Bigg )$

where;

$F = m_{person}g$

Then;

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{ {m_{person}g }}{x(m_{car}+m_{person})} } \Bigg )$

replacing the values;

$f = \Bigg ( \dfrac{1}{2 \pi} \Bigg ) \Bigg( \sqrt{\dfrac{ {(88 \ kg)* (9.81 \ m/s^2) }}{(5.36 \times 10^{-2} \ m) (2002 \ kg +88 \ kg)} } \Bigg )$

$\mathbf{f = 0.442 \ Hz}$

stira [4]

Answer:

$4.81*10^{29}J$

Explanation:

Since the formula for kinetic energy of an object is:

$E_k = \frac{mv^2}{2}$

Where m is the mass of the object and v is the speed. We can substitute m = $3*10^{21}$ kg and v = 17900m/s:

$E_k = \frac{3*10^{21} * (17900)^2}{2} = 4.81*10^{29}J$
