Can the sum of the magnitudes of two vectors ever be equal to the magnitude of the sum of the same two vectors? If no, why not?

If yes, when?
a-No, because of the angle between the two vectors.
b-No, it is impossible for the magnitude of the sum to be equal to the sum of the magnitudes.
c-Yes, if the two vectors are in the same direction.
d-Yes, if the two vectors are perpendicular.
e. Yes, if one of the vectors is zero.

Answer:

c-Yes, if the two vectors are in the same direction.

e. Yes, if one of the vectors is zero.

Explanation:

Lets take

The magnitude of the two vectors are A and B and they are at angle θ

Then the Sum of these two vectors

\bar{R}=\bar{A}+\bar{B}

Resultant R

R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2+2ABcos\theta}

if the angle between these vectors is zero.It means that they are in the same direction.

θ = 0

R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2+2ABcos0}

R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2+2AB}

R=\sqrt{(A+B)^2}

R=A+B

If the one vector is zero vector.

Therefore the answer will be C and e.

In a lab, a student drags a shoe across the floor at constant speed. If the coefficient of static friction between the floor and
Svetllana [295]
<span>B) 0.6 N
   I suspect you have a minor error in your question. Claiming a coefficient of static friction of 0.30N is nonsensical. Putting the Newton there is incorrect. The figure of 0.25 for the coefficient of kinetic friction looks OK. So with that correction in mind, let's solve the problem. The coefficient of static friction is the multiplier to apply to the normal force in order to start the object moving. And the coefficient of kinetic friction (which is usually smaller than the coefficient of static friction) is the multiplied to the normal force in order to keep the object moving. You've been given a normal force of 2N, so you need to multiply the coefficient of static friction by that in order to get the amount of force it takes to start the shoe moving. So: 0.30 * 2N = 0.6N And if you look at your options, you'll see that option "B" matches exactly.</span>

A wave passes along the surface of the water in a ripple tank. Describe the motion of a molecule on the surface as the water pas
laila [671]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water waves are generally a transverse wave which do not cause permanent displacement of molecules of the medium. Transverse waves are waves in which the direction of propagation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the particles of the medium.

As the wave propagates from one point to another on the surface of water transferring energy, a molecule of water on its surface vibrates upwards and downwards. Its motion is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. After the vibration, it comes back to its initial position.
