Answer:
A. Speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.
Explanation:
A scalar quantity is one that consists of only a numerical value.
Speed is a scalar quantity because only the instantaneous value is indicated, for example the speedometer of a car that tells you your speed at the moment but not where you are going or in what direction are you going.
On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity. Because it is composed of a <u>magnitude and a direction</u>, for example 10m/s to the south is a velocity, and 10m/s is a speed.
Answer:
a) t = 4.16 s
b) x = 141.51 m
Explanation:
Given
v = 21.5 m/s
x0 = 52.0 m
a = 6.0 m/s²
a) Motorcycle
x = v0*t + (a*t²/2)
x = 21.5t + (6*t²/2)
x = 21.5t + 3t² <em>(I)</em>
Car
x = x0 + v0*t
x = 52 + 21.5t <em>(II)</em>
<em />
then we can apply <em>I = II</em>
21.5t + 3t² = 52 + 21.5t
⇒ 3t² = 52
⇒ t = 4.16 s
b) We can use <em>I</em> or <em>II</em>, then
x = 52 + 21.5*(4.16)
⇒ x = 141.51 m
. In single particle problem whole mass is concentrated at a single point so it has a single displacement, single velocity and single acceleration. while, in rigid body mass is distributed
Answer:
The magnitude is "3.8 m/s²", in the upward direction.
Explanation:
The given values are:
Mass,
m = 88 kg
Scale reads,
T = 900 N
As we know,
⇒
On substituting the given values, we get
⇒
⇒
Now,
⇒
On substituting the given values in the above equation, we get
⇒
On subtracting "862.4" from both sides, we get
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒ (upward direction)
Answer:
The toy's energy is 18 J.
Explanation:
We have, a 4 kg toy is lifted off the ground and falls at 3 m/s. It is required to find toy's energy.
The toy will have kinetic energy due to its motion. The energy is given by :
So, the toy's energy is 18 J.
