Component vectors can be used with a variety of different used in physics, including displacement, force, acceleration, electric field, etc.

Why are vectors considered to be vectors?

Vectors are considered vectors because they have both magnitude (size or length) and direction. This property distinguishes vectors from scalars, which only have magnitude. In physics and mathematics, vectors are essential for representing physical quantities like force, velocity, and displacement that have both size and direction.


Which of the following are vectors speed force mass displacement time velocity energy momentum?

force velocity displacement energy (has to have magnitude and direction)


What are the horizontal and vertical components of a cat's displacement when the cat has climbed 5m up a tree?

Think about the direction that the cat is moving. Does the cat's movement have a horizontal component? Or is the movement strictly vertical?


Which are considered vectors?

Physical quantities that have both magnitude and direction are considered vectors. Examples of vectors include force, velocity, acceleration, and displacement. These quantities are represented using arrows to show their direction and scale to show their magnitude.


What is the difference between a resultant vector and a component vector?

The resultant vector describes the complete vector, magnitude and direction; while the component vector describes a single component of a vector, like the x-component. If the resultant vector has only one component, the resultant and the component are the same and there is no difference.t


What is the only part of an applied force that performs work on an object?

The component of the applied force that is parallel to the displacement of the object is the only part that performs work on the object. This is because work is defined as force multiplied by the displacement in the direction of the force.


What is the difference between scalars and vectors using displacement and distance?

A scalar is a real quantity like distance and a vector is a vector quantity like displacement.Displacement is the product of a distance and a direction,Displacement =DistancexDirection.


Is it possible the add a vector and scalar?

no!!!only scalars and scalars and only vectors and vectors can be added.


For any triangle made of vectors will any pair of vectors that form its sides be equal vectors?

No. Only in the equilateral case. And then they will only be equal in magnitude, not direction.


What are two factors do you need to know to calculate how much work has done in any situations?

The displacement produced by the body. The amount of force subjected to the body. The angle between the direction of force and displacement.


What is a characteristic of a vector?

It has only magnitude and no direction. It depends on magnitude of two vectors which are multiplying and cosine of angle between them. A . B = AB (cosine of angle between them). Best example is 'work done by a force' = force . displacement = Fd(cosine of angle between force and displacement)


Which group contain animals that are vectors?
