In models of magnetic and electric fields, why are field vectors depicted by arrows?

Physics
1 answer:
taurus [48]2 years ago
7 0

The arrows in models of magnetic and electric fields show  both their magnitude and direction.

In Physics, a vector refers to a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Hence, a vector always points in a given direction. The direction in which the arrow points is the direction of the vector in space.

In models of magnetic and electric fields, field vectors depicted by arrows  because they represent both their magnitude and direction. The length of the arrow shows magnitude.

A 5 kg block is pushed across a table by a horizontal force of 40 N with an acceleration of 5 m/s^2. What is the frictional forc
julsineya [31]

Answer:

15

Explanation:

mass, M = 5Kg

horizontal force, F_h = 40N

acceleration, a =5 m/s^2

frictional force, F_f =?

net force = ma

net force = F_h - F_f = 40N - F_f

40  - F_f = 5 x 5

- F_f = 25 - 40

multiply both side by -1

F_f = 40 - 25 = 15

the frictional force is 15N

Submarine a travels horizontally at 11.0 m/s through ocean water. it emits a sonar signal of frequency f 5 5.27 3 103 hz in the
xeze [42]
Velocity of submarine A is vs = 11.0m/s
frequency emitted by submarine A. F = 55.273 × 10∧3HZ
Velocity of submarine B = vO = 3.00m/s
The given equation is
f' = ((V + vO) ((v - vS)) × f
The observer on submarine detects the frequency f'.
The sign of vO should be positive as the observer of submarine B is moving away from the source of submarine A.
The speed of the sound used in seawater is 1533m/s
The frequency which is detected by submarine B is 
fo = fs (V -vO/ v +vs)
= 53.273 × 10∧3hz) ((1533 m/s - 4.5 m/s)/ (1533 m/s +11 m/s)
fo = 5408 HZ

How much energy is transferred in 10 seconds with a current of 13 amperes and a potential difference of 230 volts?​
Serhud [2]

29900 J

Explanation:

Recall that

P = VI

= (230 volts)(13 A)

= 2990 watts

Also,

E = Pt

= (2990 watts)(10 s)

= 29900 J
