Which of the following best describes a vector?

Physics
1 answer:
garik1379 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Vectors are used to represent physical magnitudes that have an associated address. For example, if we want to represent the displacement of an object, it is not enough to describe only the distance as 10 meters, it is also necessary to describe in which direction the displacement occurred, for example, 30 ° towards the northeast.

Therefore the vectors are measured in one or several dimensions that include a magnitude and an address.

The correct option is the last:

"<em>a measurement in more than one dimension that includes a magnitude and a direction</em>"

A steel ball bearing is released from a height H and
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

ELASTIC collision

kinetic energy is conservate

Explanation:

As the ball bounces to the same height, it can be stated that the impact with the floor is ELASTIC.

As the floor does not move the conservation of the moment

            po = pf

            -mv1 = m v2

- v1 = v2

So the speed with which it descends is equal to the speed with which it rises

Therefore the kinetic energy of the ball before and after the collision is the same

Match each item with the clean water regulation it describes. (2 points)
Leona [35]

The correct match of each item to the clean water regulation it describes is as follows:

  • Regulates pollutants discharged into surface waters: Clean water act
  • Covers both surface and ground waters: Safe drinking water act
  • Authorizes the EPA to establish minimum standards for tap water: Safe drinking water act
  • Funds sewage treatment plants: Clean water act

<h3>What are the functions of clean water regulation?</h3>

Clean Water Act (CWA) is a regulatory body that establishes the basic structure for the regulation of pollutants discharge and maintenance of quality standards of the surface waters.

On the other hand, the Safe Drinking Water Act was founded to oversee the protection of the quality drinking water. The regulatory body is primarily concerned with potable water all waters, whether from above ground or underground sources.

Therefore, the correct match of each item to the clean water regulation it describes is as follows:

  • Regulates pollutants discharged into surface waters: Clean water act
  • Covers both surface and ground waters: Safe drinking water act
  • Authorizes the EPA to establish minimum standards for tap water: Safe drinking water act
  • Funds sewage treatment plants: Clean water act

15. A body moving with a velocity of 20 m/s begins to accelerate at 3 m/s2. How far does the body move in 5 seconds? A. 137.5 m
Rudik [331]

Answer is B. According to the equation of motion s = vt + 1/2 at2 Where s is distance covered, v is velocity, a is acceleration and t is time taken. So, by putting all the values, we get s = (20)(5) + 1/2 (3)(5)2 s = 100 + 1/2 (3)(25) s = 100 + 1/2 75 s = 100 + 37.5 s = 137.5 meters

Estimate the smallest possible period of a satellite in a circular orbit around earth. (mass and radius of earth is 5.98 x 1024
myrzilka [38]
Given: Mass of earth Me = 5.98 x 10²⁴ Kg

           Radius of earth r = 6.37 x 10⁶ m

            G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/Kg²

Required: Smallest possible period T = ?

Formula: F = ma;  F = GMeMsat/r²     Centripetal acceleration ac = V²/r

               but V = 2πr/T

equate T from all equation.

F = ma

GMeMsat/r² = Msat4π²/rT²    

GMe = 4π²r³/T²

T² = 4π²r³/GMe  

T² = 39.48(6.37 x 10⁶ m)³/6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/Kg²)(5.98 x 10²⁴ Kg)

T² = 1.02 x 10²² m³/3.99 x 10¹⁴ m³/s²

T² = 25,563,909.77 s²

T = 5,056.08 seconds    or around   1.4 Hour
