A force is a Vector quantity.

Which means it has both size or magnitude and with direction.
k0ka [10]3 years ago

Answer:

A force is a <u>VECTOR</u> quantity.

Explanation:

As we know that all quantities which requires direction and magnitude both for complete representation then it is known as vector quantities.

As we know that force requires magnitude as well as direction both because we can not represent the force without its direction or we can not represent the force without magnitude.

As we know that as the magnitude of the force is known but if the direction is not known then in that case the effect of force can not be derived.'

So here we can say that

A force is a <u>VECTOR</u> quantity.

Locate the polyatomic ion in the compound CaCO3 <br> Ca <br> 0 <br> CO3 <br> C
dimaraw [331]

CO₃

Explanation:

The polyatomic ion in the compound CaCO₃ is CO₃.

A polyatomic ion is an ion that is made up of more than one atom that has singular property.

They are usually called radicals.

    CaCO₃ ⇒  Ca²⁺  + CO₃²⁻

CO₃²⁻ is a polyatomic ion because it is made up of more than one atom.

The CO₃²⁻ is called a carbonate group.

It is made up of:

  • one atom of carbon
  • 3 atoms of oxygen
  • a net charge of 2-

A car approaches you at a constant speed, sounding its horn, and you hear a frequency of 76 Hz. After the car goes by, you hear
Talja [164]

Answer:

70.07 Hz

Explanation:

Since the sound is moving away from the observer then

f_o = f_s\frac {(v+vs)}{v} and f_o = f_s\frac {(v-vs)}{v} when moving towards observer

With f_o of 76 then taking speed in air as 343 m/s we have

76 = f_s\times\frac {(343-vs)}{343}

f_s=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}

Similarly, with f_o of 65 we have

65 = f_s\times\frac {(343+vs)}{343}\\f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}

Now

f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}

v_s=27.76 m/s

Substituting the above into  any of the first two equations then we obtain

f_s=70.07 Hz

Static charges can be applied to neutral objects by friction, induction or conduction. What do all of these methods utilize to c
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

B) electrons

Explanation:

When charge is transferred by friction, induction or conduction, the charge carriers are the electrons.

In fact, protons and neutrons are found within the nucleus of the atoms, so they are tightly bound and they cannot be easily gained/given off. On the contrary, electrons are found in the electron clouds around the nucleus, so atoms can more easily gain/lose electrons, which become free and can be passed by an object to another.

The three methods of charging are:

- Friction: by rubbing two objects together, electrons may be transferred from one to another

- Induction: by moving a charged object closer to a neutral object, opposite charges in the neutral object migrate towards the opposite ends of the object, and if the object is connected to the ground, the charges of one polarity leave the object, leaving the object charged

- Conduction: by putting a charged object in contact with a neutral object, electrons can be transferred from the charged object to the neutral one

Which of the following helps to explain how hydraulic lifts work?
Gnesinka [82]

Answer : C. Pascal's principle.

Explaination : Pascal's principle (well-known as Pascal's law) states that if a closed container contains a fluid at rest, then a small change in pressure at one side of the fluid is transmitted to each and every part of the fluid and also to the walls of the container without any loss. In a hydraulic lift, we need the same mechanism to work and so we take the help of Pascal's principle.


Hence, the correct option is C. Pascal's principle.

Two girls,(masses m1 and m2) are on roller skates and stand at rest, close to each other and face-to-face. Girl 1 pushes squarel
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

\vec{v}_1 = -\frac{\vec{v}_2m_2}{m_1}

Explanation:

The center of mass of the system (two girls) is constant, as the velocity of the center of mass of the system is also constant.

\vec{v}_{cm} = \frac{m_1\vec{v}_1 + m_2\vec{v}_2}{m_1 + m_2}

<u>The initial velocity of the system is zero, since both girls are at rest.</u> So the velocity of the total system at any point should be zero as well.

0 = \frac{m_1\vec{v}_1 + m_2\vec{v}_2}{m_1 + m_2}\\\vec{v}_1 = -\frac{\vec{v}_2m_2}{m_1}

This is true, because there is no friction between the girls and the ground. Otherwise, the velocity of the center of mass wouldn't be constant.
