Read the scenario. A car travels 25 m/s forward for 10 s. Which option accurately identifies the measurements within the scenari

o that are vector quantities and describes why?
a.The measurements 25 m/s and 10 s are vector quantities because these numbers are both measurements that do not include direction.
b. The measurement 10 s is the only vector quantity because it measures time.
c. The measurement 25 m/s is the only vector quantity because it is a measurement of speed.
d. The measurement 25 m/s forward is the only vector quantity because it is a measurement that includes a direction.

Explanation:

It is given that,

A car travels 25 m/s forward for 10 s.

Solution,

For a vector, a quantity must have both magnitude as well as the direction. For a scalar, a quantity have only the magnitude. In this case, the car moves in forward direction.  This is the only difference between the vector and the scalar.

Out of given option,s the correct option is (c) "The measurement 25 m/s is the only vector quantity because it is a measurement of speed".

A 100-turn, 3.0-cm-diameter coil is at rest in a horizontal plane. A uniform magnetic field 60%u2218 away from vertical increase
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Induced emf in the coil, E = 0.157 volts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Number of turns, N = 100

Diameter of the coil, d = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Radius of the coil, r = 0.015 m

A uniform magnetic field increases from 0.5 T to 2.5 T in 0.9 s.

Due to this change in magnetic field, an emf is induced in the coil which is given by :

E=-NA\dfrac{\Delta B}{\Delta t}

E=-100\times \pi (0.015)^2\times \dfrac{2.5-0.5}{0.9}

E = -0.157 volts

Minus sign shows the direction of induced emf in the coil. Hence, the induced emf in the coil is 0.157 volts.

You have seen magnets sticking to the refrigerator door, or maybe in your science class room. They attract metal items, for exam
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

B) shrinks

Explanation:

The magnetic force is a force exerted between two magnets, or two magnetic materials, or also on an electric charge moving in a magnetic field.

If we talk about magnetic material, the magnetic field they generates can be represented using a dipole: essentially, they have a north pole (where the lines of the field go out) and a south pole (where the lines of the field go in).

Also, the lines spread apart as we move away from the magnet itself. This means that the strength of the field (and so, the intensity of the force) decreases as we move away from the magnet.

Using this description, we can now understand that when we move the paper clip further from the magnet, the force exerted on the clip decreases, as the magnetic field becomes weaker. So, the correct answer is B.

What is the centripetal acceleration of the earth as it travels around the sun when Earth has an orbital radius of 1.5 x 10^11 m
masya89 [10]

Answer: 0.0058 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration a_{C} is calculated by the following equation:

a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r}

Where:

V=29.7 \frac{km}{h} \frac{1000 m}{1 km}=29700 m/s is the Earth's orbital speed

r=1.5(10)^{11} m is the orbital radius

a_{C}=\frac{(29700 m/s)^{2}}{1.5(10)^{11} m}

a_{C}=0.0058 m/s^{2}
