Answer:

Fundamental unit is any unit that is not dependent on other units and other units can be derived from them

Explanation:

Units such as Kilogram, Mass and Time are said to be fundamental units because they are independent.

Differences between Mass and weight;

1. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass.

2. Mass is a scalar quantity while weight is a vector quantity

A marble is dropped from rest and falls for 2.3 seconds. Find its final velocity.

juin [17]

Answer:

23 m/s downward

__________________________________________________________

Taking the downward direction as positive

We are given:

Initial velocity of the marble (u) = 0 m/s

Time interval (t) = 2.3 seconds

Final velocity (v) = x m/s

Solving for the Final velocity:

Acceleration of the Marble:

We know that gravity will make the marble accelerate at a constant acceleration of 10 m/s

Final velocity:

v = u + at [First equation of motion]

x = 0 + (10)(2.3) [replacing the given values]

x = 23 m/s

Hence, after 2.3 seconds, the marble will move at a velocity of 23 m/s in the downward direction

Answer:

I would say its a deep ocean trench

Explanation:

This is because deep ocean trenches are found at the deepest part of the ocean and also at Pacific ocean margins or Rim where subduction usually occurs and Aleutian islands are part of the Pacific Rim

Assume that the electric field E is equal to zero at a given point. Does it mean that the electric potential V must also be equa

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

No, this doesn't mean the electric potential equals zero.

Explanation:

In electrostatics, the electric field $\vec{E}$ is related to the gradient of the electric potential V with :

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r})$

This means that for constant electric potential the electric field must be zero:

$V(\vec{r}) = k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (\frac{\partial}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial}{\partial z}) k$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (\frac{\partial k}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial k}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial k}{\partial z})$

$\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - (0,0,0)$

This is not the only case in which we would find an zero electric field, as, any scalar field with gradient zero will give an zero electric field. For example:

$V(\vec{r})= (x+2)^2 (y+4)^3 (z+5)^4$

give an electric field of zero at point (0,0,0)
