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.

What is the number of electrons that move past a point in a wire carrying 500 A of current in 4.0 minutes
mr Goodwill [35]
The current is defined as the amount of charge Q that passes through a given point of a wire in a time \Delta t:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
Since I=500 A and the time interval is
\Delta t=4.0 min=240 s
the charge is
Q=I \Delta t=(500 A)(240 s)=1.2 \cdot 10^5 C

One electron has a charge of q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C, therefore the number of electrons that pass a point in the wire during 4 minutes is
N= \frac{Q}{q}= \frac{1.2 \cdot 10^5 C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C}=7.5 \cdot 10^{23} electrons

If the volume of a sample of gas is reduced at constant temperature, the average velocity of the molecules _______, the average
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the volume of a sample of gas is reduced at constant temperature, the average velocity of the molecules increases, the average force of an individual collision increases, and the average number of collisions with the wall, per unit area, per second increases.

As volume is reduced, the gas molecules come closer together, which increases the number of collisions between them and their collisions with the container walls. Also, since the distance traveled by each molecule between successive collision decreases, the molecule velocity doesn't decrease much within collisions as a result of which, the average velocity is higher compared to when the gas is stored in a larger volume. Finally, due to constant collisions, the direction of molecule travel changes rapidly owing to which the acceleration of molecules increases.
