Answer:

A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.

Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...

A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

Explanation:

hope this helps...

A sample has a density of 30 g/ml. there is 60 ml of this substance.how much does it weigh?
aleksandrvk [35]
If each mL has 30 grams of the substance in it, then 60 mL have 1800 grams of mass in them. the weight of 1,800 grams of mass on Earth is (1.8 kg) x (9.8 m/s^2) = 17.6 newtons.

A truck driving east on a highway goes from the 42 mi marker to the 48 mi
Leona [35]

Average velocity is 1..2 mi/min east

Explanation:

  • Velocity = Displacement/Time

Here, displacement = 48 mi - 42 mi = 6 miles

Time = 5 minutes

⇒ Average Velocity = 6/5 = 1.2 mi/min east

Enter your answer in the provided box. The mathematical equation for studying the photoelectric effect is hν = W + 1 2 meu2 wher
siniylev [52]

Answer:

v = 4.44 \times 10^5 m/s

Explanation:

By Einstein's Equation of photoelectric effect we know that

h\nu = W + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

here we know that

h\nu = energy of the photons incident on the metal

W = minimum energy required to remove photons from metal

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = kinetic energy of the electrons ejected out of the plate

now we know that it requires 351 nm wavelength of photons to just eject out the electrons

so we can say

W = \frac{hc}{351 nm}

here we know that

hc = 1242 eV-nm

now we have

W = \frac{1242}{351} = 3.54 eV

now by energy equation above when photon of 303 nm incident on the surface

\frac{1242 eV-nm}{303 nm} = 3.54 eV + \frac{1}{2}(9.1 \times 10^{-31})v^2

4.1 eV = 3.54 eV + (4.55 \times 10^{-31}) v^2

(4.1 - 3.54)\times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}) = (4.55 \times 10^{-31}) v^2

8.96 \times 10^{-20} = (4.55 \times 10^{-31}) v^2

v = 4.44 \times 10^5 m/s
