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 carbon dating
Tom [10]

the determination of the age or date of organic matter from the relative proportions of the carbon isotopes carbon-12 and carbon-14 that it contains. The ratio between them changes as radioactive carbon-14 decays and is not replaced by exchange with the atmosphere.

If you hold a permanent magnet the wrong way in an extremely strong magnetic f eld, its magnetization will be permanently revers
Phoenix [80]

Answer: The domain that is aligned with the applied field will grow, while the domain that is oppositely aligned to the magnetic field will shrink, this is because permanent magnets produces their own magnetic field.

A 10 kg block rests on a 30o inclined plane. The block is attached to a bucket by pulley system depicted below. The mass in the
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

a). M = 20.392 kg

b). am = 0.56 m/s^2 (block),  aM = 0.28 m/s^2 (bucket)

Explanation:

a). We got  N = mg cos θ,

                  f = $\mu_s N$

                    = $\mu_s mg \cos \theta$

If the block is ready to slide,

T = mg sin θ + f

T = mg sin θ + $\mu_s mg \cos \theta$   .....(i)

2T = Mg ..........(ii)

Putting (ii) in (i), we get

$\frac{Mg}{2}=mg \sin \theta + \mu_s mg \sin \theta$

$M=2(m \sin \theta + \mu_s mg \cos \theta)$

$M=2 \times 10 \times (\sin 30^\circ+0.6 \cos 30^\circ)$

M = 20.392 kg

b). $(h-x_m)+(h-x_M)+(h'+x_M)=l$  .............(iii)

   Here, l = total string length

Differentiating equation (iii) double time w.r.t t, l, h and h' are constants, so

$-\ddot{x}-2\ddot x_M=0$

$\ddot x_M=\frac{\ddot x_m}{2}$

$a_M=\frac{a_m}{2}$   .....................(iv)

We got,   N = mg cos  θ

                $f_K=\mu_K mg \cos \theta$

∴ $T-(mg \sin \theta + f_K) = ma_m$

  $T-(mg \sin \theta + \mu_K mg \cos \theta) = ma_m$  ................(v)

Mg - 2T = Ma_M

$Mg-Ma_M=2T$

$Mg-\frac{Ma_M}{2} = 2T$    (from equation (iv))

$\frac{Mg}{2}-\frac{Ma_M}{4}=T$   .....................(vi)

Putting (vi) in equation (v),

$\frac{Mg}{2}-\frac{Ma_M}{4}-mf \sin \theta-\mu_K mg \cos \theta = ma_m$

$\frac{g\left[\frac{M}{2}-m \sin \theta-\mu_K m \cos \theta\right]}{(\frac{M}{4}+m)}=a_m$

$\frac{9.8\left[\frac{20.392}{2}-10(\sin 30+0.5 \cos 30)\right]}{(\frac{20.392}{4}+10)}=a_m$

$a_m= 0.56 \ m/s^2$

Using equation (iv), we get,

a_M= 0.28 \ m/s^2
