1.
For a scale diagram of forces with the largest force 40 N, a suitable scale is:
1 cm = 5 N
1 cm = 100 N
1 cm = 0.1 N
5 cm = 1 N
2.
Vectors are added in a scale diagram by placing them:
tail to tail only
head to tail
at random
head to head
3.
If a drawn line is 6.4 cm on a scale of 1 cm = 5 N, the force is:
6.4 N
0.8 N
32 N
64 N
4.
A closed vector polygon of forces means:
the force is infinite
the body accelerates
there are no forces
the resultant force is zero
5.
The best way to reduce percentage uncertainty in a length measured from the drawing is to:
use a larger diagram
use a blunter pencil
measure only once
use a smaller scale
6.
Two forces of 3.0 N and 4.0 N at right angles have a resultant on a scale diagram of 5.0 cm if the scale is:
1 cm = 5 N
1 cm = 1 N
1 cm = 10 N
2 cm = 1 N
