Is tension a scalar or vector?

tension is a vector!(At first I thought it was a scalar too but this afternoon it was in our physics quiz,I answered scalar but I got it wrong because tension is a vector).this is the explanation:tension is the force producing such deformation.anything with force is a vector.Force always has direction.


A flexible cord connection is made directly to the load end terminals of a busway plug-in device. The maximum length of this cord to a tension take-up device is?

the length of the cord or cable from a busway plug-in device to a suitable tension take-up support device shall not exceed 6 ft.


What is the cord grip used for?

A cord grip, also known as a strain relief grip or cable grip, is used to secure the end of a cable or cord to a device or fixture. It helps to relieve strain on the electrical connections and prevent the cord from pulling out or getting damaged. The grip typically has a threaded body that screws onto the cord, providing a secure and tight connection.


How long do after shocks happen after an earthquake?

By this you could mean 2 things:How long after the main earthquake do aftershocks occur?A: This depends on the magnitude of the main quake, and the faultline and how much tension there is between the tectonic plates.2. For how long after the main earthquake do aftershocks occur?A: This again depends on the magnitude of the main earthquake and the faultline.


Does speed have magnitude only?

speed has magnitude. velocity has magnitude and direction.

What is the purpose of a cord restraint?

A cord restraint helps to prevent tension that is placed on a flexible cord from pulling on the conductors inside it. The simplest cord restraint is a clamp that firmly holds cords in place as they enter or exit a box of some kind. But more often the term cord restraint refers to a thing made of wire that gets tighter on the cord as tension is placed on it.


What will happen if spinal cord is transected?

you will be paralyzed, but depending on the magnitude it MAY re-heal


How does the resistance influence the extension cord?

There are many ways in which the resistance influences the extension cord. Tension could cause it to break for example.

Your 2000 Jetta Hood opener wont open how do you fix it?

The cord that provides tension is not in place. Once you get the hood up, and the grill off, there is a ball attached to the cord; it fits into the bottom half of the lock mechanism and should then provide tension to get the lock to pop.


How do you describe tension?

in this propbam: a 200kg mass is hanging from a hook conected to a pully, the cord around the fully is connected to the over head support at two points, what us the tension in the cords connected to the support if the angle of the cord from the vertical is: A) 0 degrees B) 5 C)15


What is the tension if A utility pole is 10m in height and weights 2000lbs. the cord to hold the pole is 5 meter away. Therefore think of it as right triangle?

A utility pole is 10m in height and weights 2000lbs. the cord to hold the pole is 5 meter away. Therefore think of it as right triangle the height is 10m and the length is 5m. What is the hypotenuse and angle? What is the tension needed for the cord to keep the pole straight. (The cord is the hypotenuse).

How does one get a starting cord that broke to rewind itself?

I take it that you have completely renewed the cord, if so, you now have the the cord/rewind spring housing in your hand. Depending on the manufacturer you need to re-tension the spring and rewind the cord at the same time. Good luck, it' fiddley and requires dexterity AND patience.
