What is the difference between velocity and speed /vector and scalar? ​

Physics

stepladder [879]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Speed only defines the magnitude of how fast an object is moving from one point to another. This is a scalar quantity (Only Value)

Velocity defines both how fast an object is moving and also in what direction the object is moving. This is a vector quantity (Value + Direction)

How much heat is absorbed by a 47g iron skillet when its temperature rises from 12oC to 20oC?
jolli1 [7]

Answer

169.2 J

Explanation

Given in the question,

mass of iron = 47g

specific heat capacity of iron = 0.450 (J/g 0C)

initial temperature = 12° C

final temperature = 20° C

The energy q needed to increase an object of mass m and specific heat capacity c by a temperature θ is given by:

q = mcΔt

q = 47(0.45)(20-12)

q = 169.2 J

Georgie was pulling her brother (of mass 16 kg) in a 9.4 kg sled with a constant force of 39 N for one block (128 m). How much w
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

4992 J

Explanation:

Force, F = 39 N

Distance, s = 128 m

Work done = force x distance

W = 39 x 128

W = 4992 J

Thus, the work done is 4992 J.

A uniform ladder of length l rests against a smooth, vertical wall. If the coefficient of static friction is 0.50, and the ladde
Ronch [10]

Answer:

X = 5.44 m

Explanation:

First we can calculate the normal force acting from the floor to the ladder.

W₁+W₂ = N  

W1 is the weigh of the ladder

W2 is the weigh of the  person

So we have:

m1g+m2g=N  

N=755.37 N

The friction force is:

F_{force}=\mu N=0.5\cdot 755.37=377.68 N

Now let's define the conservation of torque about the foot of the ladder:

\tau_{ledder}+\tau_{person=\tau_{reaction}}

m_{1}\cdot g\cdot X \cdot cos(53)+m_{2}\cdot g\cdot 3.75 \cdot cos(53)=F_{force}7.5sin(53)

Solving this equation for X, we have:

X = \frac{377.68\cdot 7.5\cdot sin(53)-21\cdot 9.81\cdot 3.75 \cdot cos(53)}{56\cdot 9.81\cdot cos(53)}

Finally, X = 5.44 m

Hope it helps!
