What would be the magnitude and direction of acceleration which would make the balance reading zero?

In physics, if the balance reading is zero then the magnitude and direction of acceleration would also be zero. There can be no movement or force if everything is balanced.


What is physics magnitude?

In Physics 'language'... Magnitude = Size


What is magnitude of acceleration?

magnitude of acceleration=change of velocity/time invertal


How is acceleration similar to speed and velocity?

-- The magnitude of acceleration is equal to the time rate of change of speed. -- The magnitude of acceleration is equal to the time rate of change of the magnitude of velocity. -- Acceleration and velocity are both vectors.


How do you calculate magnitude and direction of a object or truck?

-- First of all, you calculate the magnitude and direction of vectors. An object or a truck are not vectors. Things like their weight, velocity, and acceleration are. -- There are different methods and formulas for calculating each different vector. For example: . . . The truck's weight is (the truck's mass) x (the acceleration of gravity) downward . . . The truck's acceleration is (the rate at which its speed changes) in the direction in which its speed changes.


What are two possible uses for physics equations?

Using information about a force to calculate the resulting acceleration..Using the change in the volume of a gas to calculate the change in its pressure.


What is the decrease of speed called in physics?

Any change of velocity, including a decrease of speed, is described and measured as acceleration. Assuming the velocity and acceleration vectors point in the same direction, then in the case of decreasing speed, the magnitude of the acceleration is a negative value. Negative acceleration is often called deceleration, but that is just a special case of acceleration.


Is acceleration a quantity of vector?

yes, Acceleration is vector quatity!!. Its has both magnitude and direction


What is the purpose calculating moment of inertia?

Inertia is affected by an outside force. So if you calculate the moment of inertia, you calculate the magnitude and possibly the direction of the outside force. You can use this to determine acceleration.


Which acceleration has larger magnitude?

gravity


What is the minimum magnitude of acceleration?

Zero is.


What is acceleration since it has magnitude and direction?

Acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
