Answer: b) Scalar, scalar, vector.

Explanation: A scalar is just a number, this can be the speed for example, while a vector is a number that also has a direction, for example, velocity.

the speed of a snail: This is just a quantity, this would be a scalar.

the time it takes to run a mile. Just a quantity, this is a scalar.

the free-fall acceleration. The acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity, so this has a magnitude and a direction, so this is a vector.

Then the correct answer is b) Scalar, scalar, vector.

If current I=2A and resistance R= 5 ohms what is the potential difference (voltage) V?
damaskus [11]

Answer:

10 V

Explanation:

From Ohm's law, V=IR where V is the potential difference voltage, I is the current and R is resistance. Substituting 2A for current and 5 Ohms for resistance then V=2*5= 10 V

Choose the statement that is a misconception about a system in chemical equilibrium.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

There are equal parts reactants and products.

Explanation:

When a system is in a chemical equilibrium, the rate at which the forward reaction occur is the same as the rate at which the reverse reaction occurs. This system is said to undergo a reversible reaction. The concentration of the reactants and products do not change, i.e are constant.

In a chemical equilibrium, the reaction continues in both directions but at the same rate.

Therefore the statement that is a misconception about a system in chemical equilibrium is 'There are equal parts reactants and products'.

The diagram shows a pot sitting on a gas stove burner. Which shows the order in which thermal energy is transferred by conductio
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The question is not improper, But I will try to explain your doubt.

  • The pot and part of stove are obviously in contact with each other. It is known <em>as conduction</em>
  • The pot on gas stove burner, the air above the stove is heated and because  it is gas moves upwards, this is <em>convection</em>. The bottom of the pot and surface of the stove are not 100% flat. Thats why there will be little pockets of air underneath the pot,even if you place it on the stove.

If we heat up the stove as much as then it turns to red, this visible sign is known as<em> radiation.</em>

<em>Therefore all the 3 kinds of heat transfer takes place</em>
