All valid equations in physics have consistent units. Are all equations that have consistent units valid?

Physics

Answer:

c. No. An equation may have consistent units but still be numerically invaid.

Explanation:

For an equation to be corrected, it should have consistent units and also be numerically correct.

Most equation are of the form;

(Actual quantity) = (dimensionless constant) × (dimensionally correct quantity)

From the above, without the dimensionless constant the equation would be numerically wrong.

For example; Kinetic energy equation.

KE = 0.5(mv^2)

Without the dimensionless constant '0.5' the equation would be dimensionally correct but numerically wrong.

Three collinear forces,F1=45N west,F2=63N east and an unknown force F3 are applied to an object.The resultant force of the three
Greeley [361]

Take east to be the positive direction. Then the resultant force from adding <em>F</em>₁ and <em>F</em>₂ is

<em>F</em>₁ + <em>F</em>₂ = (-45 N) + 63 N = 18 N

which is positive, so it's directed east.

To this we add a third force <em>F</em>₃ such that the resultant is 12 N pointing west, making it negative, so that

18 N + <em>F</em>₃ = -12 N

<em>F</em>₃ = -30 N

So <em>F</em>₃ has a magnitude of 30 N and points west.

A car is rounding a 100-m-radius curve at 25 m/s.What is the minimum possible coefficient of static friction between the tires a
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The minimum possible coefficient of static friction between the tires and the ground is 0.64.

Explanation:

if the μ is the coefficient of static friction and R is radius of the curve and v is the speed of the car then, one thing we know is that along the curve, the frictional force, f will be equal to the centripedal force, Fc and this relation is :

Fc = f

m×(v^2)/(R) = μ×m×g

    (v^2)/(R) = g×μ

               μ = (v^2)/(R×g)

                  =  ((25)^2)/((100)×(9.8))

                  = 0.64

Therefore, the minimum possible coefficient of static friction between the tires and the ground is 0.64.

You connect five identical resistors in series to a battery whose EMF is 12.0 V and whose internal resistance is negligible. You
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Total resistance in the circuit

= EMF / current in the circuit

= 12 / .969

= 12.383 ohm

This resistance consists of 5 identical resistances in series

resistance of each resistor

= 12.383 / 5

= 2.476 ohm .

potential difference on each

= current x resistance of each

= .969 x 2.476

= 2.399 V

= 2.4 V
