velocity is a vector quantity, and speed is a scalar quantity. The speed of a car is 20 m/s. What other information do you need

in order to know the velocity of the car ?
Physics
1 answer:
nalin [4]3 years ago

Answer:

Direction

Explanation:

Speed is a scalar quantity, that is, it has only magnitude

While velocity is a vector quantity, which has both direction and magnitude.

Velocity is also called speed with direction.

Hence, we need to know the direction in which the car is moving in order to know the velocity.

One way to force air into an unconscious person's lungs is to squeeze on a balloon appropriately connected to the subject. What
frozen [14]

Answer:

The force that you must exert on the balloon is 1.96 N

Explanation:

Given;

height of water, h = 4.00 cm = 4 x 10⁻² m

effective area, A = 50.0 cm² = 50 x 10⁻⁴ m²

density of water, ρ = 1 x 10³ kg/m³

Gauge pressure of the balloon is calculated as;

P = ρgh

where;

ρ is density of water

g is acceleration due to gravity

h is height of water

P = 1 x 10³ x 9.8 x 4 x 10⁻²

P = 392 N/m²

The force exerted on the balloon is calculated as;

F = PA

where;

P is pressure of the balloon

A is the effective area

F = 392 x 50 x 10⁻⁴

F = 1.96 N

Therefore, the force that you must exert on the balloon is 1.96 N

A wave travels at a constant speed. How does the frequency change if the wavelength is reduced by a factor of 4
sweet-ann [11.9K]

The product of (wavelength) x (frequency) is always the same number ... the wave's speed.  

So if the wavelength is somehow reduced to  1/4  its original length, the <em>frequency is immediately multiplied by 4</em> .  That's the only way their product can remain the same.

Polaczono szeregowo cewke ul=120 rezystor ur=100 i kondensator uc=50 Napiecie miezone voltomierzem nie moze byc: u&gt;100 u&lt;1
romanna [79]

Answer:

<u>Translated from Polish language:</u>

  • Coil connected in series ul = 120 resistor ur = 100 and capacitor uc = 50 Voltage with voltmeter must not be:
  • The voltmeter must not be connected in series rather it should be connected in parallel to the circuit to provide much effective results for analyzing the circuits potential difference.

I need help on this question, please.
frez [133]

Answer:

|X| = 72 cm

Explanation:

We need to find the magnitude of vector X.

Vector Y = 21 cm

Vector Z = 75 cm

We know that, the magnitude of resultant vector is given by :

Z={X^2+Y^2} \\\\X^2=Z^2-Y^2\\\\X^2=(75)^2-(21)^2\\\\X=72\ cm

So, the value of magnitude of vector X is 72 cm

How much heat is required to raise 100 grams of water (c= 4.18) by 5 degrees Celsius?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Heat capacity, Q = 2090 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 100 grams

Specific heat capacity = 4.18 J/g°C.

Temperature = 5°C

To find the quantity of heat required;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mct

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

t represents the temperature of an object.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Q = 100*4.18*5

Heat capacity, Q = 2090 Joules.
