Suppose two vectors have unequal magnitudes. can their sum be zero? explain

Physics
1 answer:
GalinKa [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer;

-  No, Two vectors of unequal magnitude can never sum to zero.

Explanation;

-Two vectors of equal magnitude that are pointing in opposite directions will sum to zero.

-Two vectors of unequal magnitude can never sum to zero. If they point along the same line, since their magnitudes are different, the sum will not be zero.

- If they point in different directions, then you can always decompose one vector into two components: one along the other vector and one perpendicular to the other vector. In this case, the perpendicular component can never be eliminated.

A Foucault pendulum consists of a brass sphere with a diameter of 31.0 cm suspended from a steel cable 11.0 m long (both measure
kozerog [31]

Answer:

43.7 °C

Explanation:

\alpha_b = Coefficient of linear expansion of brass = 18\times 10^{-6}\ ^{\circ}C

\alpha_s = Coefficient of linear expansion of steel = 11\times 10^{-6}\ ^{\circ}C

L_{0b} = Initial length of brass = 31 cm

L_{0s} = Initial length of steel = 11 m

\Delta L = Total change in length = 3 mm

Total change in length would be

\Delta L=\Delta L_b+\Delta L_s\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=L_{0b}\alpha_b\Delta T+L_{0s}\alpha_b\Delta T\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=\frac{\Delta L}{L_{0b}\alpha_b+L_{0s}\alpha_b}\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=\frac{0.003}{0.31\times 18\times 10^{-6}+11\times 10^{-6}\times 11}\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=23.7\ ^{\circ}C

\Delta T=23.7\\\Rightarrow T_f-T_i=23.7\\\Rightarrow T_f=23.7+T_i\\\Rightarrow T_f=23.7+20\\\Rightarrow T_f=43.7\ ^{\circ}C

The final temperature is 43.7 °C

ki77a [65]

Answer:

θ = 22.2

Explanation:

This is a diffraction exercise

        a sin θ = m λ

The extension of the third zero is requested (m = 3)

They indicate the wavelength  λ = 630 nm = 630 10⁻⁹ m and the width of the slit  a = 5 10⁻⁶ m

         sin  θ = m λ / a

         sin  θ = 3 630 10⁻⁹ / 5 10⁻⁶

         sin  θ = 3.78 10⁻¹ = 0.378

          θ = sin⁻¹  0.378

         

to better see the result let's find the angle in radians

          θ = 0.3876 rad

let's reduce to degrees

         θ = 0.3876 rad (180º /π rad)

         θ = 22.2º
