Learning Goal: To introduce the idea of physical dimensions and to learn how to find them.Physical quantities are generally not

purely numerical: They have a particular dimension or combination of dimensions associated with them. Thus, your height is not 74, but rather 74 inches, often expressed as 6 feet 2 inches. Although feet and inches are different units they have the same dimension--length. Find the dimensions [V] of volume. Find the dimensions [v] of speed.Express your answer as powers of length ( l), mass ( m), and time ( t)

Answer:

volume : {l}^3

speed: (l)^1*(t)^-1

Explanation:

Volume is a measure of 3 dimensional space. It is expressed with 3 orthogonal lengths. The volume of a box would be the product of it's height, width and length. These 3 are longitudes that can be expressed in meters, feet, inches, etc. Because these are 3 longitudes multiplied the result will be a cubic longitude (l)^3.

A more general method for finding a volume is to use integral calculus:

V = \int\int\int{x} * {y} * {z} * dx * dy * dz

This is for Cartesian coordinates. Cylindrical and spherical coordinates can also be used.

Speed is defined as the rate of change in position respect of time:

vx = \frac{\delta x}{\delta t}

For movement in one dimension.

For movement in 3 dimensions you calculate the speed component of each space direction and express them as components of a speed vector:

\v{v} = \frac{\delta x}{\delta t}  \hat{i} + \frac{\delta y}{\delta t}  \hat{j} + \frac{\delta z}{\delta t}  \hat{k}

This is a vector of velocity components, each one is expressed as a division of a longitude over a time, so speed components have dimensions of (l)^1*(t)^-1

The speed vector has a magnitude that is obtained with the Pitagoras theorem:

v = \sqrt{vx^{2} + vy^{2} + vz^{2}}

Since each component is squared, added together and then the square root is taken this magnitude is also in (l)^1*(t)^-1

Truck drivers approaching a steep hill that they must climb often increase their speed. What good does this do, if any?
Inga [223]
Um, this doesn't make any sense. By climbing a hill, you are decreasing your momentum and kinetic energy, so it slows you down. The only positive, is after you have climbed the hill, you have more potential energy, and it will be released once you go down the hill, but you will not be as fast as if you ignored the hill.

4. Some early mornings , dew drops can be found on grass or a car parked outside,
horsena [70]

In some early mornings , dew drops can be found on grass or a car parked outside, but not on other materials such as the sidewalk because  the night -time temperature on grass and the car went below the dew point, but  the temperature of the concrete did not drop enough to reach the dew point  level

Dew can be formed on any object when the temperature of the object drop. When this happen, the object will be cool which will eventually cool the surrounding air around the object.

Dew drops is as a result of condensation in the air. When the cool air causes the air vapor to convert to liquid. The dew will form when the temperature of the object balances with the dew point in the surrounding environment.

In some early mornings , dew drops can be found on grass or a car parked outside, but not on other materials such as the sidewalk because  the night -time temperature on grass and the car went below the dew point, but  the temperature of the concrete did not drop enough to reach the dew point  level

Therefore the correct option is therefore A
