The least number of component of a vector quantity is two. These are the x-component and the y-component.
The resultant vector, or vector as we refer to it in this item, can be calculated through the equation,
RV = sqrt ((Vx)² + (Vy)²)
From the equation, it can be noted that if we let Vx equal to zero,
RV = Vy
Similarly, if we let Vy be equal to zero then,
RV = Vx
Thus, it is still possible for the vector to become nonzero even if one of its components is zero.
Drift velocity is equal to displacement of the moving object per unit time. The SI unit for displacement is meters while that of time is second. Hence the derived SI unit of velocity is meter per second. This also applies to electron mobility which relates to the displacement per unit time of a moving electron
' +4 m/s² ' means that the pigeon's speed is 4 m/s greater every second.
Starting from zero speed, after 10 seconds, its speed is
(10 x 4m/s) = 40 m/s.
We can't say anything about its velocity, because we have
no information regarding the direction of its flight.
The answer to the given question above would be option B. If a topographic map included a 6,000 ft. mountain next to an area of low hills, the statement that best describe the contour lines on the map is this: <span>The contour lines around the mountain would be very close together. Hope this helps.</span>
