By definition, vectors are quantities that have magnitude (positive or negative) and direction.
Graphically, they are illustrated by directed line segments, with arrows that indicate the direction.

Evaluate the given statements.
1. Vectors have a size only. FALSE
2. Vectors have a size and a direction. TRUE
3. Vectors are indicated with arrows. TRUE
4. Vectors can have only positive values. FALSE
5. Vectors can have positive or negative values. TRUE

true or false:acceleration toward the center of a curved or circular path is called gravitational acceleration.

nalin [4]

Nope. It's called 'centripetal' acceleration. The force that created it MAY be gravitational, but it doesn't have to be. For things on the surface of the Earth moving in circles, it's never gravity.

What is the net torque on the square plate, with sides 0.2 m, from each of the three forces? F1=18 N, F2=26 N, and F3=14 N. Use

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The net torque on the square plate is 2.72 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Side = 0.2 m

Force $F_{1}=18\ N$

Force $F_{2}=26\ N$

Force $F_{3}=14\ N$

We need to calculate the torque due to force F₁

Using formula of torque

$\tau_{1}=-F_{1}d_{1}$

$\tau_{1}=-F_{1}\times\dfrac{a}{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$\tau_{1}=-18\times\dfrac{0.2}{2}$

$\tau_{1}=-1.8\ N-m$

We need to calculate the torque due to force F₂

Using formula of torque

$\tau_{2}=F_{2}d_{2}$

$\tau_{2}=F_{2}\times\dfrac{a}{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$\tau_{2}=26\times\dfrac{0.2}{2}$

$\tau_{2}=2.6\ N-m$

We need to calculate the torque due to force F₃

Using formula of torque

$\tau_{3}=F_{3}d_{3}$

$\tau_{3}=(F_{3}\sin45+F_{3}\cos45)\times\dfrac{a}{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$\tau_{3}=0.1(14\sin45+14\cos45)$

$\tau_{3}=1.92\ N-m$

We need to calculate the net torque on the square plate

$\tau=\tau_{1}+\tau_{2}+\tau_{3}$

$\tau=-1.8+2.6+1.92$

$\tau=2.72\ N-m$

Hence, The net torque on the square plate is 2.72 N-m.

Which statement about tempture is correct

motikmotik

Answer:

B temperature is an indirect measurement of the heat energy in a substance

Explanation:

The concept of temperature can be easily understood by looking at what happens when two objects are placed in contact with each other. By common experience, we know that the hotter object transfers heat energy to the colder object, until the two objects are in thermal equilibrium (= they have same temperature).

Thinking about the example above, we can say therefore that the temperature is an indirect measurement of the heat energy possessed by an object (or substance).

For a monoatomic gas, for instance, we define its internal energy as

$U=\frac{3}{2}nRT$

where n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant, and T is the absolute temperature. From the formula, we see that the temperature is related to the internal energy of the gas, so measuring the temperature means indirectly measuring its internal energy.
