If a nail is not hit square on the top by the hammer it will bend and there is a likelihood that the wood will be damaged by hammer marks or the bent nail.

Why Is the magnitude of instantaneous velocity always equal to the instantaneous speed?

Yes, it can be. Average speed is the distance traveled divided by the time traveled. Average velocity is the displacement divided by the time traveled. Displacement is change in position, or final position (df) minus initial position (di). Let's say you traveled from your home to the mall and then back again. The total distance traveled was 30 miles, and the total time driven was 1 hour. Average speed = distance traveled/time traveled = 30 miles/1 hour = 30mi/hr or 30mph. Average velocity = (df - di)/time traveled = 0 mile/1 hour = 0 mi/hr or 0mph.* *In this case the final position and the initial position are the same (your house), so the displacement is zero. Something to think about: When a Nascar driver races 500 miles around an oval track, his average speed might be 160mph, but his average velocity when he finishes the race is 0mph.


What positive charge feel the urge to follow the direction of the electric?

Positive charges in an electric field will feel a force in the direction of the field lines, which urge them to move towards areas of lower potential. This movement is driven by the attraction to the negatively charged particles in the opposite direction.


What are Currents powered by wind called?

Currents powered by wind are called wind-driven currents or wind-driven circulation. These currents are created by the friction between the wind and the surface of the water, causing the water to move in the direction of the wind.


The wind stirs up what current?

The wind can stir up ocean currents, particularly surface currents, increasing their speed and changing their direction. This can lead to a phenomenon known as wind-driven circulation, where the movement of water is influenced by the force and direction of the wind.


How can you tell which direction particles will diffuse in?

Particles will diffuse from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration to reach equilibrium. This process is driven by the random motion of particles. The direction of diffusion can be predicted by following the concentration gradient, where particles will move towards areas of lower concentration.

How does the gear drive differ from the chain drive in regard to direction of rotation of the wheels?

With a chain drive the driven wheel will always rotate in the same direction as the drive wheel, but in a gear drive the direction of rotation will change between drive wheel and driven wheel.


What is the meaning of the menu driven program?

Menu-driven simply means you execute the application's commands by selecting them from a menu, as opposed to command-driven whereby you enter (type) the commands manually.


Explain in briefly on the Classification of operating system?

Classification of Advanced OS is done as below:Architecture driven systems, and Application driven system. 1. Architecture driven: * Network OS * Distributed OS * Multiprocessor OS 2. Application driven: * Database OS * Real Time OS * Multimedia OS


What is a idler gear?

It changes the direction of movement in a gear system, so that the driver and driven gears move in the same direction.


How do the hands on a clock turn?

They are turned by a gear train, which in turn is driven by a spring-driven, weight-driven, or electric motor. Their direction of rotation is normally clockwise when viewing the clock's "face".


What direction does the fan rotate on a Chevy 305?

V-belt driven, clockwise.


Can event driven programs be used for non graphic application in vb?

Classification of advance operating system?

Advanced operating system can be divided into two systems which are namely, Architecture driven systems and Application driven Systems. Architecture driven system include Network OS Distributed OS Multiprocessor OS and Application driven systems include Database OS Real time OS Multimedia OS. In simpler terms an OS here is a collection of software and associated protocol that performs specific task.


A car is driven 160 km west and then 90 km southwest What is the displacement of the car from the point of origin magnitude and direction?

*-----160km------*|......................./|...................../x................../|.............90km|.............../|............./|.........../|........./|......./|...../|.../*/it's not to scale, but that's your model... now you use Pythagorean Theoremx^2+160^2=90^2x^2=-17500x=the square root of -17500


How much fuel does a vehicle use per hour?

That depends on 1) the type and make of vehicle 2) how it is driven 3) the speed at which it is being driven 4) the wind speed and direction as compared to the vehicle's direction of travel. As you have not told us these things we can not be more helpful.
