A meteor is the flash of light that we see in the night sky when a small chunk of interplanetary debris burns up as it passes through our atmosphere. "Meteor" refers to the flash of light caused by the debris, not the debris itself.

If any part of a meteoroid survives the fall through the atmosphere and lands on Earth, it is called a meteorite.

The magnitude of a negative of a vector is negative. O True O False

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Explanation:

For any negative vector

$\overrightarrow{r}=-x\widehat{i}-y\widehat{j}$

The magnitude of the vector is given by

$|r|=\sqrt{(-x)^{2}+(-y)^{2}}\\\\|r|=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

As we know that square root of any quantity cannot be negative thus we conclude that the right hand term in the above expression cannot be negative hence we conclude that magnitude of any vector cannot be negative.
