Question
Study Guide Mix n Match:
When adding vector quantities
- Vectors must always be arranged head to tail.
- The resultant is equal to the algebraic sum of the magnitudes.
- Only two vectors can be added together at one time.
When put into water a plastic toy will sink until
- It displaces a volume equal to its own volume.
- It displaces a weight of water equal to its own weight.
- The buoyant force equals the volume of the boat.
The pressure in a liquid depends on the
- The density of the liquid.
- The depth of the measuring point.
- Both a and b.
Archimedes’ Principle says that an object is buoyed up by a force that
equal to the
- The weight of the fluid displaced.
- The volume of the fluid displaced
- The mass of the object.
Coulomb’s Law says the electric force between two charges depends
- Directly upon the magnitude of the charges.
- Inversely with the square of the distance between the charges.
- Both a and b.
Bernoulli’s Principal says
- If an object is more dense than the fluid, it will sink.
- The faster a fluid moves the less pressure it exerts on a surface.
- When pressure is exerted on one point of an enclosed fluid the pressure is equalized throughout the fluid.
