Why is acceleration called vector quantity

Physics

Because it has both magnitude and direction. When an object has positive acceleration, the acceleration occurs in the same direction as the movement of the object.

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! Is string a ferromagnetic material?
Contact [7]

Answer:

See, the string is made of nickel and steel (iron+carbon), materials that are ferromagnetic. That is, a magnet attracts guitar strings. When this ferromagnetic metal vibrates in the magnetic field of the pickup, that disturbs the red field lines which also cross through the coil (not shown).

If the radius of the sun is 7.001×105 km, what is the average density of the sun in units of grams per cubic centimeter? The vol
xenn [34]

Answer:

Average density of Sun is 1.3927 \frac{g}{cm}.

Given:

Radius of Sun = 7.001 ×10^{5} km = 7.001 ×10^{10} cm

Mass of Sun = 2 × 10^{30} kg = 2 × 10^{33} g

To find:

Average density of Sun = ?

Formula used:

Density of Sun = \frac{Mass of Sun}{Volume of Sun}

Solution:

Density of Sun is given by,

Density of Sun = \frac{Mass of Sun}{Volume of Sun}

Volume of Sun = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

Volume of Sun = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times [7.001 \times 10^{10}]^{3}

Volume of Sun = 1.436 × 10^{33} cm^{3}

Density of Sun = \frac{ 2\times 10^{33} }{1.436 \times 10^{33} }

Density of Sun = 1.3927 \frac{g}{cm}

Thus, Average density of Sun is 1.3927 \frac{g}{cm}.

Use the table below to calculate the acceleration of the object. Time (s) 0.0 3.0 6.0 9.0 Velocity (m/s) 0.0 1.2 2.4 3.6
antiseptic1488 [7]

explanation

a=average velocity/average time

average velocity=0.0+1.2+2.4+3.6/4

average velocity=7.2/4

average velocity=1.8 m/s

average time=0.0+3.0+6.0+9.0/4

average time=18/4

average time=4.5 s

a= average velocity/average time

a=1.8/4.5

a=0.4 m/s²

What happens in a nucleus during beta decay
Jet001 [13]

The number of protons plus the number of neutrons decreases

Beta decay occurs when, in a nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons is transformed into the other. In beta minus decay, a neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino: n Æ p + e - +.

What equation represents the law of conservation of energy in closed system
svetoff [14.1K]

The first option.

The total mechanical energy before an action (which makes up PE and KE) equals the total mechanical energy after an action.

So

KEi + PEi = KEf + PEf
