Consider the common measurement speed = 55 mph. What is the magnitude quantity?

Physics
1 answer:
noname [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Magnitude = 55

Quantity = Speed

Explanation:

We are told that the speed is 55 mph. This implies that the magnitude is 55 while the unit is mph.

Also, physical quantities are usually things that can be measured such as distance, voltage, temperature e.t.c

A satellite is in a circular orbit 8200 km above the Earth’s surface; i.e., it moves on a circular path under the influence of n
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

5.23km/s

Explanation:

Given

Radius of Earth = 6.37 * 10^6 m

Altitude of Satellite = 8200km = 8200 * 10³m = 8.2 * 10^6 m

Gravity Acceleration on Satellite Altitude = 1.87965m/s²

For a satellite to remain in circular orbit, then it means the acceleration of gravity must be exact as the centripetal acceleration.

Centripetal Acceleration = V²/R

So, Acceleration of Gravity (A)= Centripetal Acceleration = V²/R

Make V the subject of formula

A = V²/R

V² = AR

V = √AR

Where R = (radius of earth) + (altitude of satellite)

R = 6.37 * 10^6 + 8.2 * 10^6

R = 14.57 * 10^6m

A = 1.87965m/s²

V = √(1.87965 * 14.57x10^6)

V = √27386500.5

V = 5233.211299001789

V = 5233.2113 m/s ------- Approximated

V = 5.23km/s

The Young’s modulus of nickel is Y = 2 × 1011 N/m2 . Its molar mass is Mmolar = 0.059 kg and its density is rho = 8900 kg/m3 . G
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Atomic Size and Mass:

convert given density to kg/m^3 = 8900kg/m^3 2) convert to moles/m^3 (kg/m^3 * mol/kg) = 150847 mol/m^3 (not rounding in my actual calculations) 3) convert to atoms/m^3 (6.022^23 atoms/mol) = 9.084e28 atoms/m^3 4) take the cube root to get the number of atoms per meter, = 4495309334 atoms/m 5) take the reciprocal to get the diameter of an atom, = 2.2245e-10 m/atom 6) find the mass of one atom (kg/mol * mol/atoms) = 9.7974e-26 kg/atom Young's Modulus: Y=(F/A)/(dL/L) 1) F=mg = (45kg)(9.8N/kg) = 441 N 2) A = (0.0018m)^2 = 3.5344e-6 m^2 3) dL = 0.0016m 4) L = 2.44m 5) Y = 1.834e11 N/m^2 Interatomic Spring Stiffness: Ks,i = dY 1) From above, diameter of one atom = 2.2245e-10 m 2) From above, Y = 1.834e11 N/m^2 3) Ks,i = 40.799 N/m (not rounding in my actual calculations) Speed of Sound: v = ωd 1) ω = √(Ks,i / m,a) 2) From above, Ks,i = 40.799 N/m 3) From above, m,a = 9.7974e-26 kg 4) ω=2.0406e13 N/m*kg 5) From above, d=2.2245e-10 m 6) v=ωd = 4539 m/s (not rounding in actual calculations) Time Elapsed: 1) length sound traveled = L+dL = 2.44166 m 2) From above, speed of sound = 4539 m/s 3) T = (L+dL)/v = 0.000537505 s

The displacement vector A and B when added together , give the resultant vector R so that R= A+B use the data in the drawing and
Salsk061 [2.6K]
The addition of vectors involve both magnitude and direction. In this case, we make use of a triangle to visualize the problem. The length of two sides were given while the measure of the angle between the two sides can be derived. We then assign variables for each of the given quantities.

Let:

b = length of one side = 8 m
c = length of one side = 6 m
A = angle between b and c = 90°-25° = 75°

We then use the cosine law to find the length of the unknown side. The cosine law results to the formula: a^2 = b^2 + c^2 -2*b*c*cos(A). Substituting the values, we then have: a = sqrt[(8)^2 + (6)^2 -2(8)(6)cos(75°)]. Finally, we have a = 8.6691 m.

Next, we make use of the sine law to get the angle, B, which is opposite to the side B. The sine law results to the formula: sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b and consequently, sin(75)/8.6691 = sin(B)/8. We then get B = 63.0464°. However, the direction of the resultant vector is given by the angle Θ which is Θ = 90° - 63.0464° = 26.9536°.

In summary, the resultant vector has a magnitude of 8.6691 m and it makes an angle equal to 26.9536° with the x-axis.
