Why is a magnetic field a vector quantity?

Physics
1 answer:
____ [38]3 years ago
6 0

The correct answer is: directional force

Explanation:

A vector quantity is a quantity which has both a magnitude and a direction.

A field is always associated with a force, which means that the field produces a force on an object located in the field. The force itself is a vector, since it has a magnitude and a direction.

Therefore, the magnetic field is a vector quantity since it is associated with a directional force.

A spring is hung from the ceiling. When a block is attached to its end, it stretches 2.6 cm before reaching its new equilibrium
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

f = 3.09 Hz

Explanation:

This is a simple harmonic motion exercise where the angular velocity is

         w² = \frac{k}{m}

to find the constant (k) of the spring, we use Hooke's law with the initial data

         F = - kx

where the force is the weight of the body that is hanging

        F = W = m g

we substitute

        m g = - k x

        k = - \frac{m g}{x}

we calculate

        k = - \frac{9.8 m}{- 2.6 \ 10^{-2}}

        k = 3.769 10² m

we substitute in the first equation

       w² = \frac{ 3.769 \ 10^2 \ m }{m}

       w = 19.415 rad / s

angular velocity and frequency are related

       w = 2πf

        f = \frac{w}{2\pi }

        f = 19.415 / 2pi

        f = 3.09 Hz

9. Una jeringa contiene cloro gaseoso, que ocupa un volumen de 95 mL a una presión de 0,96 atm. ¿Qué presión debemos ejercer en
masha68 [24]

Answer:

2.61 atm

Ley de Boyle

Explanation:

P_1 = Presión inicial = 0.96 atm

P_2 = Presión final

V_1 = Volumen inicial = 95 mL

V_2 = Volumen final = 35 mL

En este problema usaremos la ley de Boyle.

\dfrac{P_1}{P_2}=\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{0.96\times 95}{35}\\\Rightarrow P_1=2.61\ \text{atm}

La presión ejercida sobre el émbolo para reducir su volumen es de 2.61 atm.

Sort the sentences based on whether they describe radio waves, visible light waves, or both.
valentina_108 [34]

The electromagnetic spectrum includes a continuous spectrum of wavelengths that include:

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared light, visible, ultraviolet, X-rays, gamma rays

The wavelength decreases from radio waves to gamma rays, whereas the energy increases along the same direction.

In the given example, radio waves have a lower energy and higher wavelength than visible light. The latter can be perceived by the human eye, whereas radio waves are not visible to the human eye.

1) They have colors = visible light

2) They can travel in a vacuum  = both

3) They have energy = both

4) They’re used to learn about  dust and gas clouds = radio waves

5) They’re used to find the  temperature of stars  = visible light

6)They’re invisible = radio waves
