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 pendulum makes 60 vibrations in 15 secs what’s its frequency

o-na [289]

Answer:

4 hertz

Explanation:

The defination of freqyency = the total no of cycle made by a wave in one second .

so,

cycle or vibrations=60

tame taken = 15

now,

frequency = no. of cycle / time taken

= 60/15

=4 hertz

hence, the its frequency = 4hertz

A cube that has a volume of 1.00 m³ contains N distinguishable particles.

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

1 P = 0.5

2 P = 0.3

3 P = 0.01

Explanation:

The probability formula is

$P =V^N$

Where P is the probability V is the volume while N is the number of distinguishing particles

So for N = 1 and $V = 0.500m^3$

$P = (0.500m^3)^1\\$

= 0.5

For N = 1 and $V = 0.300m^3$

$P = (0.300m^3)^1$

= 0.3

For N = 1 and $V = 0.0100m^3$

$P =(0.0100m^3)^1$

= 0.01

Suppose the gas resulting from the sublimation of 1.00 g carbon dioxide is collected over water at 25.0◦c into a 1.00 l containe

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

0.56 atm

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the number of moles of the gas.

We know that

m = 1.00 g is the mass of the gas

$Mm=44.0 g/mol$ is the molar mass of the carbon dioxide

So, the number of moles of the gas is

$n=\frac{m}{M_m}=\frac{1.00 g}{44.0 g/mol}=0.023 mol$

Now we can find the pressure of the gas by using the ideal gas equation:

$pV=nRT$

where

p is the pressure

$V=1.00 L = 0.001 m^3$ is the volume

n = 0.023 mol is the number of moles

$R=8.314 J/mol K$ is the gas constant

$T=25.0^{\circ}+273=298 K$ is the temperature of the gas

Solving the equation for p, we find

$p=\frac{nRT}{V}=\frac{(0.023 mol)(8.314 J/mol K)(298 K)}{0.001 m^3}=5.7 \cdot 10^4 Pa$

And since we have

$1 atm = 1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa$

the pressure in atmospheres is

$p=\frac{5.7\cdot 10^4 Pa}{1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa/atm}=0.56 atm$
