What is reference frame​

Physics

Anettt [7]3 years ago

Answer:

In physics, a frame of reference consists of an abstract coordinate system and the set of physical reference points that uniquely fix the coordinate system and standardize measurements within that frame. For n dimensions, n + 1 reference points are sufficient to fully define a reference frame.

Explanation:

Also called reference frame. Physics. a framework that is used for the observation and mathematical description of physical phenomena and the formulation of physical laws, usually consisting of an observer, a coordinate system, and a clock or clocks assigning times at positions with respect to the coordinate system.

Reference frame, also called frame of reference, in dynamics, system of graduated lines symbolically attached to a body that serve to describe the position of points relative to the body.

Choosing a frame of reference requires deciding where the object's initial position is and which direction will be considered positive. ... Frames of reference are particularly important when describing an object's displacement. Displacement is the change in position of an object relative to its reference frame.

Actually, frames of references are classified into two types depending upon how they are moving. Those two types are called inertial and non-inertial frames of reference. An inertial frame of reference has no acceleration. The law of inertial holds in such a frame; no fictitious forces arise.

Answer: A reference frame is simply a perspective, context, or point of view. In physics that typically means physical space time coordinates, in the social sciences it takes on a slightly different meaning. In both fields, everything is relative to the point of view of the observer ( relativity ).

A planet orbits a start with the path shown below.
kvv77 [185]

PART a)

As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by the formula

U = -\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r}

here we can see that gravitational potential energy inversely varies with the distance

so here when distance from the sun is minimum then magnitude of gravitational potential energy is maximum while since it is given with negative sign so its overall value is minimum at that position

So gravitational potential energy is minimum at the nearest point and maximum at the farthest point

PART b)

Since we know that sum of kinetic energy and potential energy is constant here

so the points of minimum potential energy is the point where kinetic energy is maximum which means speed is maximum

So here speed is maximum at the nearest point

Part C)

since gravitational potential energy inversely varies with distance so it's graph will be like hyperbolic graph with distance

A force of 30n is applied to a screwdriver to pry the lid off of a can of paint. The screwdriver applies 75n of force to the lid
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
The mechanical advantage of the screwdriver that is being described above is equal to 75N. This means that for every 30N that is applied on the screwdriver, this simple machine would in turn apply 75N of force to the lid of the can.
