What is reference frame​

Physics
2 answers:
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 ).

Answer:

<u>(B) wheat</u>

Explanation:

  • Wheat is an <u>anemophilous</u> plant (form of pollination by which wind distributes pollen)
  • They lack petals and sepals (outer whorls of the flower)
  • The female plants consist of an ovary (female reproductive part) from which two styles (connecting stigma and ovary) arise
  • The feathery stigma catches the pollen and sends it to the ovary for fertilization

In a standard tensile test a steel rod of 22-mm diameter is subjected to a tension force of 75kN. Knowing that v = 0.30 and E =
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

(a) Elongation of rod = 0.19732 mm

(b) Change in diameter = 0.00651 mm

Explanation:

Circular area at end of steel rod = pi * diameter^2 / 4

Area = pi * (22 * 10^-^3)/4

Area = 3.801 * 10^(-4)    meter squared

Stress = force / area

Stress = 75000 / (3.801 * 10^-4)

Stress = 197316495 Pa     OR       0.197 GPa

Modulus of elasticity = stress / strain

200 = 0.19732 / Strain

Strain = 0.0009866     (longitudinal)

(a) Strain = change in length / initial length

0.0009866 = Elongation of rod / 200

Elongation of rod = 0.19732 mm

(b) Poisson ratio = lateral strain / longitudinal strain

0.3 = lateral strain / 0.0009866

Lateral strain = 0.000296

Lateral strain = Change in diameter / original diameter

0.000296 = Change in diameter / 22

Change in diameter = 0.00651 mm
