Define the term dimension​

Physics
1 answer:
Vladimir79 [104]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Q1. A measurable extent of a particular kind, such as length, breadth, depth, or height.

Q2. A dimensional constant is a physical quantity that has dimensions and has a fixed value. Some of the examples of the dimensional constant are Planck's constant, gravitational constant, and so on.

Q3. Physical quantities which posses dimensions and have variable are called dimensional variables. Examples are length, velocity, and acceleration etc.

Q4. Dimensionless variables are the quantities which doesn't have any dimensions the the value is a variable. Eg: angle = arc/ radius. Dimensions = L/L. = 1. So angle does not have any dimensions and the value can vary.

Q5. Principle of Homogeneity states that dimensions of each of the terms of a dimensional equation on both sides should be the same. This principle is helpful because it helps us convert the units from one form to another.

Q6. Dimensional analysis has been around a long time, Newton called it the "Great principle of Similitude", but the modern form can be traced back to James Clerk Maxwell. It was Maxwell who distinguished mass [A/], length [£], and time [7"] as the independent dimensions from which others could be derived.

Q7. Mass, length, time, temperature, electric current, amount of light, and amount of matter.

Q8. Dimensional analysis is used to convert the value of a physical quantity from one system of units to another system of units. Dimensional analysis is used to represent the nature of physical quantity. The expressions of dimensions can be manipulated as algebraic quantities.

Hope that helps. x

What is the reaction force of the table with a weight of 558N
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: reaction force = -558N

Explanation:

w = f = 558N

since action force and reaction force are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction,

reaction force = -(f)

reaction force = -558N

if that helps.

what happens to light when it falls upon a material that has a natural frequency equal to the frequency of the light?
mixas84 [53]

The energy from the light is transferred to the material, causing it to vibrate and absorb the light.

What is energy?
In physics, energy is the quantitative quality that is transmitted to the a body or a physical system, and is discernible in the work performed as well as in the form of light and heat. The law of conservation states that although energy can change its form, it cannot be created or destroyed. Energy is indeed a conserved quantity. The International System of Units' (SI's) joule is the measurement unit for energy (J). A moving object's kinetic energy, a solid object's elastic energy, chemical energy caused by chemical reactions, and the potential energy that an object stores (for instance because of its position inside a field) are examples of common forms of energy.

When light falls upon a material that has a natural frequency equal to the frequency of the light, the light will be absorbed by the material. This is due to resonance, which occurs when the frequency of the light matches the natural frequency of the material. The energy from the light is transferred to the material, causing it to vibrate and absorb the light.

Convert the following in to SI units without changing its values<br> a. 4000 g <br>b. 2.4 km​
lana66690 [7]

hi <3

i believe i explained this answer properly in my last answer but it would be 4kg and 2400m as these are the SI units for these values.

hope this helps :)
