<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The magnitude of a vector may be positive even if all of its components are negative.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Two vectors are equal if they have the same magnitude and the same direction. If two vectors have the same magnitude (size) and the same direction, then we call them equal to each other.
  • A negative vector is a vector that has the opposite direction to the reference positive direction.
  • When vectors are added, we take into account both their magnitudes and directions.

<u>Answer:</u><u> </u>The magnitude of a vector may be positive even if all of its components are negative.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A vector has both magnitude and direction unlike a scalar which has magnitude only.

A vector can be written in terms of its components:

\vec{a} = a_x\hat{i}+a_y\hat{j}+a_z\hat{k}

The magnitude of the vector is given by:

|a| =\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2+a_z^2}

Thus, even if all the components of the vector are negative, the vector can have a positive magnitude.

The magnitude would be non-zero if one of its components is non-zero.

some of two vectors involves summation of magnitudes of of the vector components in the same direction. Two vectors having unequal magnitudes cannot have vector sum zero.

Rotating a vector about an axis passing through the tip of the vector changes the vector as the direction changes.

A scalar quantity cannot be added to a vector as it lacks the direction.

Describe all the ways that newtons laws can apply in a car crash
Harman [31]
Newtons first law - Objects in the car at rest (The human) will remain at rest unless affected by an unbalanced force. Well the unbalanced force would be the crash and this would set the human in motion and they would ether fly out the car if not wearing a seat belt or if wearing one they would get bad whip lash

Newtons second law - With more mass requires more force, so since the human is pretty light or even if heavy in a big crash there will be so much more from it that this will send the human flying.

Newtons 3rd law - Objects A puts force onto objects b and object b excretes the same amount of force back onto object a, so in a crash the human would hit the car hard and the car would excrete the same amount of force back on the human which would really damage him/her

If an object went from 0 m/s to 6 m/s in 1.7 seconds after a 10 N force was applied to it; what is the object's mass? No links p
Mashcka [7]

The force acting on the object is constant, so the acceleration of the object is also constant. By definition of average acceleration, this acceleration was

<em>a</em> = ∆<em>v</em> / ∆<em>t</em> = (6 m/s - 0) / (1.7 s) ≈ 3.52941 m/s²

By Newton's second law, the magnitude of the force <em>F</em> is proportional to the acceleration <em>a</em> according to

<em>F</em> = <em>m a</em>

where <em>m</em> is the object's mass. Solving for <em>m</em> gives

<em>m</em> = <em>F</em> / <em>a</em> = (10 N) / (3.52941 m/s²) ≈ 2.8 kg
