Which two components must a vector quantity

Physics
1 answer:
Lemur [1.5K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

d. Direction and magnitude

Explanation:

The two components of a vector are its magnitude and direction.

Magnitude is the quantity of the substance

Direction is the path.

  • Other quantities are called scalar quantities.
  • Scalar quantities have only magnitude but no direction.

Examples of vector quantities are velocity, displacement, acceleration.

Determine which law is appropriate for solving the following problem.
Nostrana [21]

Charles Law

Explanation:

Step 1:

It is given that the original volume of the gas is 250 ml at 300 K temperature and 1 atmosphere pressure. We need to find the volume of the same gas when the temperature is 350 K and 1 atmosphere pressure.

Step 2:

We observe that the gas pressure is the same in both the cases while the temperature is different. So we need a law that explains the volume change of a gas when temperature is changed, without any change to the pressure.

Step 3:

Charles law provides the relationship between the gas volume and temperature, at a given pressure

Step 4:

Hence we conclude that Charles law can be used.

Since astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless, a clever method of measuring their masses is needed to monitor their mass g
djyliett [7]

Answer:

a) m = 69.0 kg

b) release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement

Explanation:

a) Let's use Newton's second law

         F = m a

         m = F / a

         m = 60.0 / 0.870

         m = 69.0 kg

b) when we exert a force on the astronaut it acquires a momentum po, as the astronaut system plus spacecraft is isolated, the momentum is conserved

         p₀ = p_f

         m v = M v '

         v ’= \frac{m}{M} \ v

so we see that the ship is moving backwards, but since the mass of the ship is much greater than the mass of the astronaut, the speed of the ship is very small.

One method to avoid this effect is to release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement so that the initial momentum of the astronaut plus the gas is zero and therefore no movement is created in the spacecraft.

Pls help with these two last questions
zhenek [66]

Answer:

F = 50[N], to the left.

v = 10.52 [m/s]

Explanation:

<u>First problem</u>

<u />

In order to solve this problem we must apply Newton's laws, in such a way that we must perform a summation of forces on the horizontal axis. In this way we will analyze each force and the direction of action.

The offensive player is applying a force of 100N to the right, while the defensive player applies a force of 150N to the left. In this way performing the summation of forces we have.

100 - 150 = F

F = - 50 [N]

Note: The negative sign indicates that the resulting force is to the left.

<u>Second problem</u>

<u />

We must remember that the definition of speed is equal to the relationship between distance over time.

x = distance = 100 [m]

t = time = 9.5 [s]

v = x/t

v = 100/9.5

v = 10.52 [m/s]

<u />

Set local ground level to 700 ft, and record the inches of mercury.
pashok25 [27]

The altimeter reading is 29.17 from the Kollsman window is 29.17 in Hg

<h3>How to determine the altimeter reading?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Ground level = 700 ft i.e. the field elevation
  • Pressure altitude = 1450 ft

The formula to calculate the pressure altitude is:

Altitude = (29.92 – Altimeter reading) * 1,000 + Ground level

Substitute the known values

1450 = (29.92 - Altimeter reading) * 1000 + 700

Evaluate the like terms

750 = (29.92 - Altimeter reading) * 1000

Divide both sides by 1000

0.75 = 29.92 - Altimeter reading

Evaluate the like terms

Altimeter reading = 29.17

Hence, the altimeter reading is 29.17 from the Kollsman window is 29.17 in Hg
