A vector quantity must include both magnitude and direction. Which measurement is a vector quantity? A) the rain accumulation at

a weather station B) the motion of water in an ocean current C) the air temperature in a room D) the highest elevation of a hill

Answer:

B)The motion of water in an ocean current

Explanation:

With respect to measurements, a vector has both a magnitude and a direction. The first three examples (maximum height of a hill, air temperature, and rain accumulation) are magnitudes only. The fourth example (motion of water in an ocean current) is a vector, because it has a magnitude (speed) and a direction (with the current).

To determine the types of equipment your boat must carry, you need to make a measurement of the boat. What is this measurement?
jenyasd209 [6]

Explanation:

In total, the length is measured from the tip of the bow in a linear fashion to the stern of the formation of delight including any back-deck extensions. The measurement involves bow sprits; rudders; detachable engines and engine sections; handles; and various fittings and connections.

Importance in calculating a boat's length:

it affects the transportation costs (the longer the length, the higher the cost).   The pontoon's length counts as you find out how much rope you need to wrestle.  

The cost of vessel settlement on marinas depends in part on the pontoon length. As more area is consumed by a more drawn pontoon, the docking charges are higher.  

Transportation guidelines will probably not allow pontoons past a specific length on specific occasions of the day.

A sample of helium has a volume of 12.7 m3. The temperature is raised to 323 K at which time the gas occupies 32.5 m3? Assume pr
jasenka [17]

Answer: The original temperature was

T_{1}=126.51K

Explanation:

Let's put the information in mathematical form:

V_{1}=12.7m^{3}

T_{1}=?

V_{2}=32.5m^{3}

T_{2}=323K

P_{1}=P_{2}=3atm

If we consider the helium as an ideal gas, we can use the Ideal Gas Law:

PV=nRT

were <em>R</em> is the gas constant. And <em>n</em> is the number of moles (which we don't know yet)

From this, taking R=0.08205746\frac{atm.l}{mol.K},  we have:

n=\frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{RT_{2}}

⇒n=3.67mol

Now:

T_{1}=\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{nR}

⇒T_{1}=126.51K

car 2 has a mass of 150 kg and moves westward towards car 3 at a velocity of 2.2 m/s. car 3 has a mass of 265 kg and moves eastw
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The force of car 3 on car 2 ≈ 1810.82 N

Explanation:

The equation for the change in momentum of the two cars are;

Conservation of linear momentum

150( 2.2 - v) = 265(1.5-v)

150 × 2.2 - 265×1.5 = (150+265)v

150 × 2.2 - 265×1.5 = -67.5 = 415×v

∴ v = -67.5/415 = -0.1627 m/s West = 0.1627 m/s East

The impulse of the net force is the amount of momentum change experienced given by the equation;

Impulse force = m \times  v_f - m \times  v_0

Where;

v_f = The final velocity

v_0 = The initial velocity

For the the 265 kg mass, we have;

v_f = 0.1627 m/s

v_0 = 1.5 m/s

Which gives the impulse a s F×Δt =  265×0.1627 - 265×1.5 = -354.38 kg·m/s

The change in kinetic energy of the collision = 1/2×265×(0.1627^2 - 1.5^2) =-294.62 J

Whereby the distance moved in one second is 0.1627 m, we have;

Work done = Force × Distance = Force × 0.1627 = 294.62

Force = 294.62/0.1627 = 1810.82 N.

if the time is taken to bring a ball to rest from a certain velocity 'v'. is reduced to half, what will be the change in the val
777dan777 [17]

The answer is C) rate of change of momentum. The answer is not initial or final momentum as the start and end points are not changing. On the other hand, the time it takes for the ball to change velocity is. This change relates to the change of momentum. Hope this helped :))
