Which in is it Speed (S) or Velocity (V)?

Physics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

Speed has only magnitude.

Velocity has magnitude and direction.

"A bike goes 25 m/s toward  main street."

This includes a direction, so it is velocity (V).

"A person walks 4 mph."

This has only magnitude, so it is speed (S).

"A plane flies 200 m/s."

This has only magnitude, so it is speed (S).

"A bird flies 100 mph due south."

This includes a direction, so it is velocity (V).

At room temperature ice will melt while a brass lamp will stay as a solid. This must mean that the melting point of water is ___
UkoKoshka [18]
If solid, cold metal like brass doesn't melt at room temperature like ice does, than the bass can stand much more heat then a ice cube, so it needs to be hotter to melt, so the melting point of ice is lower then brass's melting point

A proton and an electron are moving in the +x direction in a magnetic field in the +z
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

A proton and electron are moving in the positive x direction, this shows that their velocity will be in the positive x direction

V = v•i

Magnetic field Is the positive z direction

B = B•k

A. For proton.

Proton has a positive charge of q

Direction of force on proton

Force is given as

F = q(v×B)

F = q( v•i × B•k)

F = qvB (i×k)

From vectors i×k = -j

F = -qvB •j

Then, for the positive charge, the force will act in the negative direction of the y-axis

B. For electron

Electron has a negative of -q

Direction of force on proton

Force is given as

F = q(v×B)

F = -q( v•i × B•k)

F = -qvB (i×k)

From vectors i×k = -j

F = --qvB •j

F = qvB •j

Then, for the negative charge, the force will act in the positive direction of the y-axis
