A body is oscillating up and down at the end of a spring. Let’s consider when the body is at the top of its up-and-down motion.
Klio2033 [76]

The velocity of the body is zero; option A

<h3>What is the motion of an oscillating body?</h3>

The motion of an oscillating body is known as simple harmonic motion.

Simple harmonic motion involves a periodical motion of a body whose acceleration is directed towards a fixed point.

For a body that is oscillating up and down at the end of a spring, considering when the body is at the top of its up-and-down motion, the velocity of the body at the top and down is zero since the body comes to rest at the top and down position of its motion.

In conclusion, oscillating bodies undergo simple harmonic motion.

A piece of bismuth with a mass of 4.06 g 4.06 g gains 423 J 423 J of heat. If the specific heat of bismuth is 0.123 J / ( g ° C
Sholpan [36]

Answer: 846°C

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat bismuth depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Given that:

Q = 423 joules

Mass of bismuth = 4.06g

C = 0.123 J/(g°C)

Φ = ?

Then, Q = MCΦ

423 J = 4.06g x 0.123 J/(g°C) x Φ

423 J = 0.5J/°C x Φ

Φ = (423J/ 0.5g°C)

Φ = 846°C

Thus, the change in temperature of the sample is 846°C

Which of the following is a scalar quantity?
makvit [3.9K]

The only scalar quantity is a. 35 m

Explanation:

In physics, there are two types of quantities:

- Scalar: a scalar quantiy is a quantity having only a magnitude, so it is just a number followed by a unit. Examples of scalar quantities in physics are:

Speed

Energy

Distance

Time

- Vector: a vector quantity is quantity having both a magnitude and a direction. Examples of vector quantities in physics are:

Velocity

Force

Acceleration

Displacement

Let's now analyze each given option, to evaluate if it is a scalar or a vector:

a. 35m  --> it is only a unit (no direction), so it is a scalar

b. 20 m to the right  --> it has a direction, so it is a vector

c. 30 m to the North --> it has a direction, so it is a vector

So, the only correct option is a).
