<span>A measurement
that both magnitude and direction is a vector quantity. An example of this is a
moving car. The car exerts force due to its thrust and weight that runs in it. This
will give us the magnitude of the car. The resulting motion of the car in terms
of displacement, velocity and acceleration that determines its direction makes
it a vector quantity. On the other hand, a measurement that has only magnitude is
a scalar quantity. The energy exerted by the engine of the car is a scalar
quantity.</span>
Mirror: Reflects off of
Glass of water: Goes through
Dark Fabric: Absorbs into
Amplitude: How dense the medium is in the compression part of the wave, and how empty the rarefied area is.
Frequency: The number of wavelengths that pass a position in 1 second.
loudness: The quality of the sound that is most closely linked to the amplitude of the sound wave.
Period: The amount of time that it takes one wavelength to pass by a position.
Pitch: The quality of the sound that is most closely linked to the frequency of the sound wave.
Answer:
T = 2 T₀
Explanation:
To answer this question let's write the expression for electrical conductivity
σ = n e2 τ / m*
The relationship with resistivity is
ρ = 1 /σ
Whereby the resistance
R = ρ L / A = 1 /σ L / A
We see that there is no explicit relationship between time and resistance, there is only a dependence on the life time (τ) that depends on the properties of the material, not on its diameter or length.
As also the average velocity or electron velocity of electrons is constant, the time to cross 2 mm in length is twice as long as the time to cross a mm in length
T = 2 T₀
Answer: a) 11.76 m/s b) 7.056 m
Explanation:
The described situation is as follows:
An object is dropped from the top of a tower and when measuring the time it takes to reach the ground that turns out to be 0.02 minutes.
This situation is related to free fall, this also means we have constant acceleration, hence the equations we will use are:
(1)
(2)
Where:
Is the final velocity of the object
Is the initial velocity of the object (it was dropped)
is the acceleration due gravity
is the height of the tower
is the time it takes to the object to reach the ground
b) Begining with (1):
(3)
(4)
(5) This is the final velocity of the object
a) Substituting (5) in (2):
(6)
Clearing
:
(7)
(8) This is the height of the tower
