Is centre of gravity a vector quantity or scalar quantity?
It's a 0th order tensor, also known as a scalar.
What quantity is defined as deformative force per unit cross sectional area?
Stress
Is stress a dimensionless quantity?
No, stress is not a dimensionless quantity. By application of a simple equation of stress, axial stress, we can determine the primary dimensions (Length, Time, Mass, Etc.) of stress.Stress (sigma) = Force (F)/Area (A)Force has the primary dimensions of: (Mass*Length)/Time^2Area has the primary dimensions of: Length^2Therefore we can determine that Stress has the primary dimensions of: Mass/(Length*Time^2)Common units include: Newtons (SI), psi (pounds mass per square inch)You may have confused stress with strain. Strain has primary dimensions of Length/Length and therefore it is often expressed without any attached units.
What is the contributionsof AL ZEEPER in physics?
He discovered what Einstein was searching for the last 30 years of his life. Well, no he didn't. He seems to be mixed up about Einstein's attempt to discover energy and his attempt to put together a unified field theory. Energy is naturally incorporated in the General Theory of Relativity through the Stress-Energy tensor, but Mr. Zeeper doesn't seem to understand tensor theory. Or Calculus. Or Algebra. Or Arithmetic.
What is a quantity that has both Magnitude and direction called?
A quantity that has both magnitude and direction often has an arrow drawn over the unit of measurement. This is known as a vector quantity, as opposed to a scalar quantity which has no direction.
Explain why the stress is considered as a tensor quantity?
If the surface area is very very small then stress is a Tensor quantity.... -MOGRE
Is stress is scalar quantity or vector quantity?
Stress is tensor quantity. The stress tensor has 9 components. Each of its components has a magnitude (a scalar) and two directions associated with it.
Is stress scalar or vector quantity?
Stress is tensor quantity. The stress tensor has 9 components. Each of its components has a magnitude (a scalar) and two directions associated with it.
Why is stress a tensor quantity?
stress is having magnitude, direction and point of application of force
Why stress is a tensor?
Stress is a tensor because it affects the datum plane. When this is affected and it changes, it is then considered a tensor.
Is current a tensor quantity?
We can say current is a zero rank tensor quantity.
Is force a tensor?
no,Force is vector quantity
Why pressure is a scalar quantity while stress is a vector?
For specifying pressure u need only magnitude, but for specifying stress u need magnitude,direction and plane Remember stress is not a vector but it is 2nd order tensor..........
Is every vector is a tensor and vice-versa?
A digital answer that is with yes or no will not help, so recall the defnition of vector being a quantity which has both magnitude and single direction .Tensor is a quantity of multi-directions. Vector is unidirectional quantity. Tensor is omnidirectinal quantity. So a vector could be viewed as a special case of tensors . Mohammed Khalil - Jordan
An arrow that represets the magnitude and direction of a physical quantity on a diagram is called a tensor?
It's called a vector
Is pressure a scaler quantity?
Pressure is no vector. Pressure is a scalar. Pressure-gradient is a vector.why pressure is a scalar
Is centre of gravity a vector quantity or scalar quantity?
It's a 0th order tensor, also known as a scalar.
