Why is area called scalar quantity​

Physics
1 answer:
astraxan [27]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Commonly area is a scalar quantity because there is no need of direction to define and also follow the algebrac summation. When we talk about vector there exist a frame of reference with a certain orogin

Circuit A in a house has a voltage of 208 V and is limited by a 40.0-A circuit breaker. Circuit B is at 120.0 V and has a 20.0-A
Setler79 [48]

Given Information:  

Voltage of circuit A = Va = 208 Volts

Current of circuit A = Ia = 40 Amps

Voltage of circuit B = Vb = 120 Volts

Current of circuit B = Ib = 20 Amps

Required Information:  

Ratio of power = Pa/Pb = ?

Answer:  

Ratio of power = Pa/Pb = 52/15

Explanation:  

Power can be calculated using Ohm's law

P = VI

Where V is the voltage and I is the current flowing in the circuit.

The power delivered by circuit A is

Pa = Va*Ia

Pa = 208*40

Pa = 8320 Watts

The power delivered by circuit B is

Pb = Vb*Ib

Pb = 120*20

Pb = 2400 Watts

Therefore, the ratio of the maximum power delivered by circuit A to that delivered by circuit B is

Pa/Pb = 8320/2400

Pa/Pb = 52/15

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{\sf \Large 3.0 s}}

Explanation:

Use distance formula

\displaystyle d=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2

u= \text{\sf  initial velocity}\\d= \text{\sf  distance}\\a= \text{\sf  acceleration}\\t= \text{\sf  time taken}

\displaystyle 18=0 \times t+\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times t^2

t=3

A +0.2 µC charge is in an electric field. What happens if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge?
AleksandrR [38]

Explanation:

It is known that electric field is responsible for creating electric potential. As a result, it depends only on the electric field and not on the magnitude of charge.

So, when a charge is increased by a factor of 2 then electric potential will remain the same. Since, expression to calculate the electric potential is as follows.

                 U = qV

Since, the electric potential is directly proportional to the charge. Hence, when 0.2 \mu C tends to replaced by 0.4 \mu C then charge is increased by a factor of 2. Hence, the electric potential energy is doubled.

Thus, we can conclude that if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge then electric potential stays the same, but the electric potential energy doubles.

There would be more - charges on the peanuts because they gain electrons which are represented with the - sign. There would also be more + on the cat to show that the cat’s fur is positively charged. The peanuts would be attracted to the cat because opposite charges attract.

As for explaining the first model, there should be the same amount of + and - charges on the peanuts as well as the cat to show that it is balanced and the peanuts are not attracted or repelled by the cat.
