What is the unit of a force, and what is 1 unit equivalent to?

Physics
1 answer:
Verizon [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Newton

Explanation:

The unit of force is Newton and it is given after Sir Isaac Newton for his tremendous works in this regard.

 Force is the product of mass and acceleration of a body.

    Force  = mass x acceleration  

 The unit of mass = kg

                    acceleration  = m/s²

So;

      1N  = 1kgm/s²

Therefore, the unit of force is newtons and 1N is equal to  1kgm/s²

5. Why does a Ntion try to influence the value of its currency?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

If inflation is relatively lower than competitors, then the countries goods will become more attractive and demand will rise. Lower inflation tends to increase the value of the currency in the long term.

When the temperature of the air is 25 degress C, the velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air is approximately
dusya [7]
Assuming an ideal gas, the speed of sound depends on temperature 
only.   Air is almost an ideal gas. 

Assuming the temperature of 25°C in a "standard atmosphere", the 
density of air is 1.1644 kg/m3, and the speed of sound is 346.13 m/s. 

The velocity can't be specified, since the question gives no information 
regarding the direction of the sound.

If stellar parallax can be measured to a precision of about 0.01 arcsec using telescopes on the Earth to observe stars, to what
marin [14]

Answer:

It corresponds to a distance of 100 parsecs away from Earth.

Explanation:

The angle due to the change in position of a nearby object against the background stars it is known as parallax.

It is defined in a analytic way as it follows:

       

\tan{p} = \frac{1AU}{d}

Where d is the distance to the star.

p('') = \frac{1}{d} (1)  

Equation (1) can be rewritten in terms of d:

d(pc) = \frac{1}{p('')} (2)

Equation (2) represents the distance in a unit known as parsec (pc).

The parallax angle can be used to find out the distance by means of triangulation. Making a triangle between the nearby star, the Sun and the Earth (as is shown in the image below), knowing that the distance between the Earth and the Sun (150000000 Km), is defined as 1 astronomical unit (1AU).

For the case of   (p('') = 0.01):

d(pc) = \frac{1}{0.01}

d(pc) = 100

Hence, it corresponds to a distance of 100 parsecs away from Earth.

<em>Summary:</em>

Notice how a small parallax angle means that the object is farther away.

Key terms:

Parsec: Parallax of arc second

Which is a scalar quantity displacement distance force acceleration​
cestrela7 [59]

A scalar is a quantity that is fully described by a magnitude only. It is described by just a single number. Some examples of scalar quantities include speed, volume, mass, temperature, power, energy, and time. A vector is a quantity that has both a magnitude and a direction.

I hope this helps you.
