What else can I help you with?
Meter is to distance as newton is to?
Meter : Distance = Newton : Force
What is a unit that measures force?
Newton
What SI unit of force is named after the scientist who described the relationship between motion and force?
The SI unit of force named after the scientist who described the relationship between motion and force is the newton, symbolized as "N." It is named after Sir Isaac Newton, who formulated the three laws of motion.
Why the like poles repel each other?
The poles are force vectors and vectors forces repel when they are opposed (in opposite direction).
What is the unit of force used to measure weight?
Some units of force are: -- newton -- ounce -- pound-force -- ton -- pennyweight
What are vectors good at representing?
Vectors can represent anything that has both magnitude and direction, like velocity, acceleration, momentum, force, 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.
What is the sum of to vectors?
A variety of mathematical operations can be performed with and upon vectors. One such operation is the addition of vectors. Two vectors can be added together to determine the result (or resultant). This process of adding two or more vectors has already been discussed in an earlier unit. Recall in our discussion of Newton's laws of motion, that the net force experienced by an object was determined by computing the vector sum of all the individual forces acting upon that object. That is the net force was the result (or resultant) of adding up all the force vectors. During that unit, the rules for summing vectors (such as force vectors) were kept relatively simple. Observe the following summations of two force vectors:
What is the maximum resultant possible when adding a 2 Newton force to a 8 Newton force?
10N if both forces are in the same direction.
What states that the net force acting on an object causes the object to accelerate in the direction on the force?
Newton's 2nd law of motion, F=ma, where Fand a are vectors.
Can velocity vectors be combined with force vectors?
No
What is muscle force and its vector representation?
Muscle force is the force produced by the contraction of a muscle. Force vectors, torque vectors, and difference vectors can all be used to help describe this force.
Is it possible to add two vectors having different magnitudes and yield zero resultant?
It is certain that two vectors of different magnitudes cannot yield a zero resultant force.
What can be used to respesent the direction and strenght of a force?
A vector can be used to represent the direction and strength of a force. Vectors have both magnitude (strength) and direction, making them ideal for representing forces in physics calculations and diagrams.
What can be used to represent the strength and direction of a force?
A vector can represent the direction and strength of a force.
What are forces shown as?
Forces are typically shown as vectors in physics, with an arrow representing the direction of the force and the length of the arrow indicating the magnitude of the force. This helps to visually represent how forces act on objects in a particular direction.
What is the difference between a Newton and a gram?
The Newton (N) is the SI unit for force. The gram (g) - or rather kilo (kg) is the unit for mass. At ground level on Earth the weight (force with which gravity pulls a) 1 kg (= 1000 g) towards the Earth is about 9.81 Newton
