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>"

Elis [28]
The answer is B.
She can measure the mass of the water, marble and the graduated cylinder with the balance.
The volume of the water can be shown on the marked graduated cylinder, the volume of the marble can be measured by the volume difference of the water before and after the marble is put in.

Igoryamba

A particle moves along a straight line with equation of motion s = f(t), where s is measured in meters and t in seconds. Find the velocity and the speed when t = 4. f(t) = 12t² + 35 t + 1

Answer:

Velocity = 131 m/s

Speed = 131 m/s

Explanation:

Equation of motion, s = f(t) = 12t² + 35 t + 1

To get velocity of the particle, let us find the first derivative of s

v (t) = ds/dt = 24t + 35

At t = 4

v(4) = 24(4) + 35

v(4) = 131 m/s

Speed is the magnitude of velocity. Since the velocity is already positive, speed is also 131 m/s

Difference between static and kinetic friction in physics
KIM [24]
The force of static friction keeps a stationary object at rest. Once the force of static friction is overcome, the force of kinetic friction is what slows down a moving object.

It decomposes in a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 14 s–1. how long would it take for an initial concentration of 0
VikaD [51]
The rate constant of a reaction can be computed by the ratio of the changes in the concentration and time take taken for it to decompose. Thus, if the rate constant is given to be 14 M/s, we have 

rate = \frac{-(C_{new} - C_{old})}{t}

where C are the concentration values and t is the time taken for it to decompose.

14 = \frac{-(0.02 - 0.06)}{t}
t = 0.003 s

Thus, it will take 0.003 s for it to decompose.
Answer: 0.003 s
