What happens when a vector is multiplied by a scalar?

Physics
1 answer:
iogann1982 [59]3 years ago
3 0

The scalar operates only on the magnitude of the vector. 
So the length of the vector may change ... becoming longer
or shorter ... but its direction doesn't change.

En un m.A.S. La amplitud tiene un valor de 10 centimetros y el periodo es de 2 segundos calcular el valor de la velocidad de 0.8
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

v1=18.46m/s

v2=29.8cm/s

Explanation:

We know that

A=10cm\\T=2s

the equation of the motion is

x=Acos(\omega t)\\

we can calculate w by using

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{2}=\pi

Hence, we have that

x=10cm*cos(\pi t)\\

the speed will be

v=-\omega*Asin(\omega t)\\|v(0.8)|=|\pi*10cm*sin(\pi *0.8)|=18.46\frac{cm}{s}\\|v(1.4)|=|\pi*10cm*sin(\pi *1.4)|=29.8\frac{cm}{s}

hope this helps!

Two 800 cm^3 containers hold identical amounts of a monatomic gas at 20°C. Container A is rigid. Container B has a 100 cm^2 pis
Vikki [24]

Answer:

1) Final Temperature of the gas in A will be GREATER than the temperature in B

2) Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below

3) The Initial  pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4) the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

Explanation:

Given that;

Temperature = 20°C = 293 K

mass of piston = 10 kg

Area = 100cm³

Volume V = 800 cm³ = 0.8 L

ideal gas constant R = 8.3 J/K·mol

1)

Final Temperature of the gas in A will b GREATER than the temperature in B

2)

Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below,

3)

Initial  pressures in containers A and B

PV = nRT

P = RT/V

we substitute

P = (8.3 × 293) /  0.8

P = 2431.9 / 0.8

P = 3039.87 J/liters

Therefore, The Initial  pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4)

Given that;

power = 25 W

time t = 15s

the final volume of container B = ?

we know that;

work done = power × time

work done = 25 × 15 = 375

Also work done = P( V₂ - V₁ )

so we substitute

375 = 3039.87 ( V₂ - 0.8 )

( V₂ - 0.8 ) = 375 / 3039.87

V₂ - 0.8 = 0.12336

V₂ = 0.12336 + 0.8

V₂ = 0.92336 Litres

V₂ = 923.36 cm³

Therefore, the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

What measures the amount of displacement in a transverse wave
MAVERICK [17]
Unlike a longitudinal wave, a transverse wave moves about, perpendicular to the direction of propagation. The particles in a transverse wave do not travel along the direction of propagation, but only oscillate up and down on its equilibrium position. With this, the displacement can be determined by measuring (in the case of electronic waves, using an oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer) and setting the desired units to measure the wave in.
