Why velocity is displacement per time?
Speed is a measure of the amount of distance you travel in a given time: speed = distance / time.Velocity is a 'vector' quantity - it has magnitude (size) like speed but also direction.Similarly, displacement is the vector analogue of distance - it records not only how far you've travelled but in what direction you've moved as well.Thus if you want to know how far in a particular direction you go in a given time you check velocity = displacement / time
Is cos function and pythagorean theroem used to calculate the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector?
No. The "resultant vector" will be in rectangular coordinates (x and y coordinates). You indeed use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate its magnitude. For the direction, however, you use the arc-tangent of (y / x). Since different angles have the same tangent, you also have to take into account the quadrant of the angle. For example, if both x and y are negative, then you have to add 180 degrees (or pi radians) to the angle which your calculator gives you. You can save yourself all this trouble by using the rectangular-to-polar conversion, available on most scientific calculators. Check your calculator's manual for details.
Does mass have direction?
Yes. Force has both magnitude and direction. Force is an example of a vector quantity. A vector has two components: magnitude and direction. Let me give a simple example to illustrate. Suppose a door is partially open. CASE 1: You push on the outer door knob with a force of 10 pounds. Result: the door will become more closed. Maybe it will slam shut. CASE 2: You push on the inner door knob with the same force of 10 pounds, but in the opposite direction to your earlier push. Result, the door moves to be more open. Maybe it will swing completely open. (If you and a friend pushed on the door knobs at the same time with 10 pounds force each, the forces would cancel and the door would not move.) -Dr. Q
How can you tell what direction water is flowing through a copper pipe?
By looking at the check or globe valve
How is work related to force and displacement?
Work is Force multiplied by distance. W=Fd The units of work are Joules (J). We can check the above equation by checking that the units are correct. Below is the unit cancellation for the above equation. J=N*m ( 1 J = 1 N*m. This is the definition of a joule)
How are scalar and vector quantities similar?
Scalar and vector quantities give magnitude, and that makes them similar. The difference is that the vector quantity gives direction as well as magnitude. plz check out this for further details vHMnGsOrU5A
What do seismographs detect?
they check the intensity or magnitude of the earthquake.
What is a cosent?
Check your spelling of the word, or indicate how you are hearing it used.
What does it mean when the seismic waves are in a 5.5 magnitude earthquake?
It means that a certain amount of shaking occurs near the earthquake; or equivalently, that a certain amount of energy is released. For more details on how this magnitude is defined, check the Wikipedia article on "Richter magnitude scale".

If star A is third magnitude and star B is fifth magnitude which is brighter and by what factor?
A 3rd magnitude star is brighter than a 5th magnitude star by a factor of 6.25.Each integer difference of magnitude represents a change in apparent brightness of 2.5 times. Hence, a 3rd magnitude star is 2.5 x 2.5 = 6.25 times brighter than a 5th magnitude star.(check related links)

You just changed your fuel pump and filter and car dies when you give it gas?
Check for fuel pressure to insure that the new pump operates properly. Make sure that the fuel filter was not installed backwards. The filter has an arrow to indicate fuel flow direction.
