Dimensional Formula of Density
The dimensional formula of density is given by,

[M1 L-3 T0]
Where,

M = Mass
L = Length
T = Time
Derivation

Density (ρ) = Mass × Volume-1 . . . . . (1)

The dimensional formula of volume = [M0 L3 T0] . . . . (2)

And, the dimensional formula of mass = [M1 L0 T0] . . . . (3)

On substituting equation (2) and (3) in equation (1) we get,

Density = Mass × Volume-1

Or, (ρ) = [M1 L0 T0] × [M0 L3 T0]-1 = [M1 L-3 T0]

Therefore, density is dimensionally represented as [M1 L-3 T0].

A motorcyclist travels with an average speed of 6 m/s . If the cyclist is going to a friend's house 36 m away , how much time wi

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The time taken by the cyclist can be found by using the formula

$t = \frac{d}{v} \\$

v is the velocity

d is the distance

From the question we have

$t = \frac{36}{6} \\ = 6$

We have the final answer as

When a wave is acted upon by an external damping force what happens to the energy of the wave

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

A-the energy of the wave decreases gradually

Explanation:

when a wave is acted upon by an external damping force the energy of the wave decreases gradually.

The energy degrades into the form of heat which is considered to be of less value and use. The reason is because it disperses and spreads more widely.

So therefore it end up as heat with a little sound but that is close to none because that too disperses into heat i.e. decreased form of energy.

Given the force diagram of the basketball, what can you tell about the basketball motion?

VARVARA [1.3K]

Newton's laws allow to find the result for the movement of the basketballl:

On the vertical axis the ball is on the ground.

On the horizontal axis the ball is accelerating in the direction of the pushing force.

Newton's laws establish the relationship between the forces on objects:

The 1st law states that if the net force is zero the object is stationary or with constant speed.

The 2nd law gives a relation of the force with the mass and the acceleration of the body.

The 3rd. Law states that the force appears in pairs, one on each body with the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction.

Let's apply these principles to the ball's motion diagram.

The two vertical forces are in the opposite direction, one is due to the weight of the body and the other is the attraction of the earth to the support of the ball, they are of equal magnitude, not their action-reaction force and reluctant because it is applied to the same body

In conclusion we can say that the ball is on the ground.

The two horizontal forces are in the opposite direction, the thrust force is greater than the friction therefore using Newton's second law the ball must be accelerating in the direction of the thrust force.

In conclusion we can say that the ball is accelerating in the direction of the pushing force.

In conclusion using Newton's laws we can find the result for the motion of the basketball:
