Find the lengths of each of the following vectors

Physics
1 answer:
Irina18 [472]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Generally, length of vector means the magnitude of the vector.

So, given a vector

R = a•i + b•j + c•k

Then, it magnitude can be caused using

|R|= √(a²+b²+c²)

So, applying this to each of the vector given.

(a) 2i + 4j + 3k

The length is

L = √(2²+4²+3²)

L = √(4+16+9)

L = √29

L = 5.385 unit

(b) 5i − 2j + k

Note that k means 1k

The length is

L = √(5²+(-2)²+1²)

Note that, -×- = +

L = √(25+4+1)

L = √30

L = 5.477 unit

(c) 2i − k

Note that, since there is no component j implies that j component is 0

L = 2i + 0j - 1k

The length is

L = √(2²+0²+(-1)²)

L = √(4+0+1)

L = √5

L = 2.236 unit

(d) 5i

Same as above no is j-component and k-component

L = 5i + 0j + 0k

The length is

L = √(5²+0²+0²)

L = √(25+0+0)

L = √25

L = 5 unit

(e) 3i − 2j − k

The length is

L = √(3²+(-2)²+(-1)²)

L = √(9+4+1)

L = √14

L = 3.742 unit

(f) i + j + k

The length is

L = √(1²+1²+1²)

L = √(1+1+1)

L = √3

L = 1.7321 unit

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The speed is 173 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

A = 47

B = 14

Length 1 urk = 58.0 m

An hour is divided into 125 time units named dorts.

3600 s = 125 dots

dorts = 28.8 s

Speed v= (25.0+A+B) urks/dort

We need to convert the speed into meters per second

Put the value of A and B into the speed

v=25.0+47+14

v =86\ urk s/dort

v=86\times\dfrac{58.0}{28.8}

v=173.19\ m/s

Hence, The speed is 173 m/s.

Which types of electromagnetic wave travels through space the fastest?
viva [34]

Answer:

The electromagnetic wave that travels the fastest through space is gamma ray

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is a type of wave which does not require material medium for its propagation. Examples of electromagnetic waves according to increasing frequency of the waves are gamma ray, x-ray, ultra violet ray, infra red, visible light, micro wave and radio waves.

Frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to period of oscillation of the wave. The higher the frequency of a wave, the shorter the period of oscillation.  Gamma ray has the highest wave frequency in electromagnetic spectrum and shorter period of oscillation, thereby causing it to have the highest penetration power.

The de Broglie wavelength of an electron traveling at 7.0 x 107m/s is 1.0 x 10-11m. (Remember that me = 9.1 x 10-31kg and h = 6.
ivolga24 [154]

The De Broglie's wavelength of a particle is given by:

\lambda=\frac{h}{p}

where

h=6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js is the Planck constant

p is the momentum of the particle


In this problem, the momentum of the electron is equal to the product between its mass and its speed:

p=m_e v=(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg)(7.0 \cdot 10^7 m/s)=6.4 \cdot 10^{-23} kg m/s

and if we substitute this into the previous equation, we find the De Broglie wavelength of the electron:

\lambda=\frac{h}{p}=\frac{6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js}{6.4 \cdot 10^{-23} kg m/s}=1.0 \cdot 10^{-11} m


So, the answer is True.
