Distance is a scalar quantity. It refers only to how far an object has traveled. For example, 4 feet is a distance; it gives no information about direction. To say an object traveled 4 feet is somewhat ambiguous. To say the object traveled 4 feet west, for example, would be a displacement, and would then be a vector quantity. It gives a more complete picture of what happened.

Mass is a scalar quantity. Simply put, it refers to how much matter an object is made up of. It has magnitude but gives no indication of direction in any sense. The vector counterpart to mass is weight.

Weight is a vector quantity. Weight is a force, and forces are vectors, i.e. having both magnitude and direction. Perceived weight of an object at rest on earth is given by

W

=

→

F

g

=

m

g

, the product of the mass of the object and the free-fall Time is a scalar quantity (as far as we are concerned at this level). It gives information about magnitude, i.e. how much time, but no information about direction.

Volume is a scalar quantity. It refers to the amount of space that an object occupies and therefore has magnitude, but gives no information about direction.

Density is a scalar quantity, having only magnitude and giving no information about direction. We can also reason that, because density is equal to mass divided by volume and both mass and volume are scalar quantities, density must also be a scalar quantity.

Speed is a scalar quantity, having only magnitude and giving no information about direction. For example,

40

m

s

is a speed, it tells us how fast an object is traveling, but nothing abut which direction the object is traveling in. The vector counterpart to speed is velocity.

Velocity is a vector quantity. Velocities have both magnitude and direction. For example,

40

m

s

NE is a velocity.

Acceleration is a vector quantity. Acceleration has both magnitude and direction. For example,

9.8

m

s

2

downward or

−

9.8

m

s

2

vertically is an acceleration.

Force is a vector quantity. Force has both magnitude and direction. Weight is an example of force given above. Another is the force of friction, which has some magnitude and acts in the direction opposite that of motion.

Temperature is a scalar quantity. A measurement of temperature has magnitude, but gives no information about direction.Note that certain quantities which are alone scalars can be represented as vectors when we discuss intervals or how the quantities change (e.g. measure of increase or decrease). this is all you need to know my friend

k0ka [10]
Well,

For the first one, the answer would be C, because all organisms in Kingdom Animalia must eat in order to survive.

For the second one, all of the options are in Kingdom Animalia, but worms (A) and clams (C) are invertebrates.  So that leaves options B and D.

A tube 1.20 m long is closed at one end. A stretched wire is placed near the open end. The wire is 0.350 m long and has a mass o
Ksju [112]

Answer:

71.4583 Hz

67.9064 N

Explanation:

L = Length of tube = 1.2 m

l = Length of wire = 0.35 m

m = Mass of wire = 9.5 g

v = Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

The fundamental frequency of the tube (closed at one end) is given by

f=\frac{v}{4L}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{343}{4\times 1.2}\\\Rightarrow f=71.4583\ Hz

The fundamental frequency of the wire and tube is equal so he fundamental frequency of the wire is 71.4583 Hz

The linear density of the wire is

\mu=\frac{m}{l}\\\Rightarrow \mu=\frac{9.5\times 10^{-3}}{0.35}\\\Rightarrow \mu=0.02714\ kg/m

The fundamental frequency of the wire is given by

f=\frac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}\\\Rightarrow f^2=\frac{1}{4l^2}\frac{T}{\mu}\\\Rightarrow T=f^2\mu 4l^2\\\Rightarrow T=71.4583^2\times 0.02714\times 4\times 0.35^2\\\Rightarrow T=67.9064\ N

The tension in the wire is 67.9064 N

seropon [69]

Answer:

Velocity = 0.5 m/s South (A)

Explanation:

You need to determine the average rate of velocity.  

The equation you will use is velocity = displacement/time

The displacement is 30m South.

The time is 60 seconds.

Plug into the equation  Velocity = 30m South/60 s

Velocity = 0.5 m/s South
