Can a vector be shorter than one of its components

1 answer:

3 0

It can never be shorter than a component - magnitude of avector is the square root of the sum of the components squared, and a square function never produces a negative number. However, it can be the same size as its component, if that component is the only one

Name human body organs where magnetism is significant

ser-zykov [4K]

It has been hypothesized, and some studies have supported the conjecture,
that certain species of insects and birds are able to sense the direction of external

A 0.0600-kilogram ball traveling at 60.0 meters

Vikki [24]

The momentum of ball is given by:

$\Delta Q=mv \\ \Delta Q=6*10^{-2}*60 \\ \Delta Q=3.6kg*m/s$

Since both have the same momentum, we have:

$\Delta Q=MV \\ 3.6=10^{-2}V \\ \boxed {V=360m/s}$

Number 3
