'D' is the scalar. It has size but no direction. The other choices have directions too, so those are vectors.

D is scalar because scalar quantities are on magnitude while vector quantities are magnitude and direction

Which statement is false?

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Once you reach adulthood, you will not experience peer pressure.

Explanation:

We tend to believe that self-control comes from within, but many of our attitudes depend as much on friends and family as on ourselves. That's because at any stage of our life (even the adult stage) our friends and our family have the power to influence us, sometimes that influence is good and sometimes bad, it's up to us to reason about them.

The people around us have the power to make us fat, consume more alcohol, worry less about the environment and expose ourselves to the sun without proper protection, among many other things.

It is not simply about peer pressure, where you deliberately act in a certain way to suit the group. It is, in fact, largely an unconscious attitude. Without your awareness, your brain is constantly picking up cues from people around you to dictate your behavior. And the consequences can be serious.

A piece of rope is pulled by two people in a tug-of-war. each exerts a 400-n force. what is the tension in the rope?

Leokris [45]

Newtons 3.law: Action = Reaction

If a body exerts a force on a rope of 400 N the rope exerts a force on the body of 400N also. So the tension in the rope is 400N. See pictures below.

You wad up a piece of paper and throw it into the wastebasket. How far will

vitfil [10]

The range of the piece of paper is C) 1.4 m

Explanation:

The motion of the piece of paper is the motion of a projectile, which consists of two separate motions:

- A uniform motion along the horizontal direction, with constant velocity

- A uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical direction, with constant acceleration (the acceleration of gravity, $g=9.8 m/s^2$ )

From the equation of motion, it is possible to find an expression for the range (the total horizontal distance covered) of a projectile, which is given by:

$d=\frac{u^2 sin 2\theta}{g}$
