What does it mean tha velocity is vector quantity

Physics
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.

A student measures the pH of a solution to be 6.8. Which should the student add if she wants to decrease the pH of the solution?
zloy xaker [14]
The neutral pH is 7. Less than 7 indicates an acid and more than 7 indicates a base (up to 14).
<span> NaCl - it's a salt (we can't measure the pH)
H2O - it can be an acid but also a base  (the pH it is almost neutral,meaning close to 7 )
HF - it is a strong acid
</span><span> KOH  - it is a strong base (pH=14)
</span>
                        ↓

He needs to use HF (Hydrogen fluoride) to decrease the pH.

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force acting on the earth due to the sun?
expeople1 [14]

Answer: 3.524(10)^{22}N

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of Gravitation, the force F exerted between two bodies of masses m1 and m2  and separated by a distance r  is equal to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance:

F=G\frac{(m1)(m2)}{r^2}   (1)

Where:

G is the Gravitational Constant and its value is 6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}  

m1=1.99(10)^{30}kg is the mass of the Sun

m2=5.972(10)^{24}kg is the mass of the Earth

r=1.50(10)^{11}m  is the distance between the Sun and the Earth

Substituting the values in (1):

F=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}\frac{(1.99(10)^{30}kg)(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}{(1.50(10)^{11}m)^2}   (2)

Finally:

F=3.524(10)^{22}N   This is the gravitational force acting on the earth due to the sun
