Which of the following is a scalar quantity?

Physics
1 answer:
makvit [3.9K]3 years ago

The only scalar quantity is a. 35 m

Explanation:

In physics, there are two types of quantities:

- Scalar: a scalar quantiy is a quantity having only a magnitude, so it is just a number followed by a unit. Examples of scalar quantities in physics are:

Speed

Energy

Distance

Time

- Vector: a vector quantity is quantity having both a magnitude and a direction. Examples of vector quantities in physics are:

Velocity

Force

Acceleration

Displacement

Let's now analyze each given option, to evaluate if it is a scalar or a vector:

a. 35m  --> it is only a unit (no direction), so it is a scalar

b. 20 m to the right  --> it has a direction, so it is a vector

c. 30 m to the North --> it has a direction, so it is a vector

So, the only correct option is a).

A wheel has a radius of 5.9 m. How far (path length) does a point on the circumference travel if the wheel is rotated through an
posledela

Answer:

(a). The path length is 3.09 m at 30°.

(b). The path length is 188.4 m at 30 rad.

(c). The path length is 1111.5 m at 30 rev.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 5.9 m

(a). Angle \theta=30°

We need to calculate the angle in radian

\theta=30\times\dfrac{\pi}{180}

\theta=0.523\ rad

We need to calculate the path length

Using formula of path length

Path\ length =angle\times radius

Path\ length=0.523\times5.9

Path\ length =3.09\ m

(b). Angle = 30 rad

We need to calculate the path length

Path\ length=30\times5.9

Path\ length=177\ m

(c). Angle = 30 rev

We need to calculate the angle in rad

\theta=30\times2\pi

\theta=188.4\ rad

We need to calculate the path length

Path\ length=188.4\times5.9

Path\ length =1111.56\ m

Hence, (a). The path length is 3.09 m at 30°.

(b). The path length is 188.4 m at 30 rad.

(c). The path length is 1111.5 m at 30 rev.
