Answer:
B)The motion of water in an ocean current
Explanation:
With respect to measurements, a vector has both a magnitude and a direction. The first three examples (maximum height of a hill, air temperature, and rain accumulation) are magnitudes only. The fourth example (motion of water in an ocean current) is a vector, because it has a magnitude (speed) and a direction (with the current).
Answer:
The velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 381.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
time taken to reach the ground, t = 38.9 s
The height of fall is given by;
h = ¹/₂gt²
h = ¹/₂(9.8)(38.9)²
h = 7414.73 m
The velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is given as;
v² = u² + 2gh
where;
u is the initial velocity of the on the root = 0
v is the final velocity of the ball before it hits the ground
v² = 2gh
v = √2gh
v = √(2 x 9.8 x 7414.73 )
v = 381.2 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 381.2 m/s
Answer:
<h2>
d₂ = 3d</h2><h2>
The diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire.</h2>
Explanation:
Using the formula for calculating the resistivity of an object to find the diameter.
Resistivity P = RA/L
R is the resistance of the material
A is the cross sectional area
L is the length of the material
Since A = πd²/4
P = R( πd²/4)/L
P = Rπd²/4L ... 1
If the second wire of the same material and length is found to have resistance R/9, the resistivity of the second material will be;
P₂ = (R/9)A₂/L₂
P₂ = (R/9)(πd₂²/4)/L₂
P₂ = (Rπd₂²/36)/L₂
P₂ = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂
Since the length and resistivity are the same;
P = P₂ and L =L₂
Equating 1 and 2;
Rπd²/4L = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂
Rπd²/4L = (Rπd₂²)/36L
d² = d₂²/9
d₂² = 9d²
Taking the square root of both sides;
√d₂² = √9d²
d₂ = 3d
Therefore the diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire
