Answer:

A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.

Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...

A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

A ship's wheel has a moment of inertia of 0.930 kilogram·meters squared. The inner radius of the ring is 26 centimeters, and the

Vikki [24]

We can use the formula of the moment of inertia given by:

$r\cdot F=I\alpha$

Where:

r = Distance from the point about which the torque is being measured to the point where the force is applied

F = Force

I = Moment of inertia

α = Angular acceleration

So:

$\begin{gathered} r\cdot F=(-0.26\times314+290\times0.32)=92.8-81.64=11.16 \\ I=0.930 \\ so,_{\text{ }}solve_{\text{ }}for_{\text{ }}\alpha: \\ \alpha=\frac{r\cdot F}{I} \\ \alpha=\frac{11.16}{0.930} \\ \alpha=\frac{12rad}{s^2} \end{gathered}$

Answer:

12 rad/s²

A student weighing 120 lbs climbs a 12 ft flight of stairs in 9 seconds. how much power did the student create?

Alex Ar [27]

Power can be calculate through the equation,
Power = Force x velocity

It should be noted that velocity is calculated by dividing displacement by time. Thus, from the given in this item we can calculate for the power.
Power = (120 lb) x (12 ft/9 s)
 Power = 160 lb.ft/s
