Answer:

Velocity is sometimes taken as speed but the rate of change of velocity is termed acceleration.

Explanation:

<u>Velocity:</u>

  • The rate of displacement of a body is called its velocity.
  • It's SI unit is metre per second. (ms^-1)
  • It is a vector quantity.

<u>Acceleration:</u>

  • The rate of change of velocity of a body is termed acceleration.
  • Its SI unit is metre per second square. (ms^-2)
  • It is a vector quantity.

Answer:

You may know that both velocity and acceleration have something to do with how fast an object moves. You’re right, but what’s the difference between these two terms in physics? Keep reading for more information about velocity, acceleration, and how to tell them apart.

Electromagnetic radiation behaves both as particles (called photons) and as waves. Wavelength (λ) and frequency (ν) are related
inessss [21]
<h2>Answer: 136.363 m</h2>

Explanation:

We can find the wavelength of the radiation produced by the microwave oven by using the following given equation:

c=\lambda.\nu   (1)

Clearing \lambda :

\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}   (2)

Knowing \nu=2.20 GHz=2.20(10)^{6}Hz=2.20(10)^{6}s^{-1}

\lambda=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{2.20(10)^{6}s^{-1}}   (3)

\lambda=136.363m This is the wavelength of the radiation produced by the microwave

Estimate the total number of bacteria and other prokaryotes in the biosphere of the earth. (assume the bacteria are found to a d
Fofino [41]
Since the Earth is almost spherical in shape, we are actually to find first the volume of the spherical segment at a depth of 1,000 m. The radius of the Earth is 6,371,000 meters. The volume of a spherical segment is:

V = 1/3*πh²(3r - h)
Substituting the values and making sure the units is in mm,
V = 1/3*π(1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)²[3(6,371,000 m * 1000 mm/1 m) - (1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)]
V = 2×10²² mm³

Thus, the total amount of bacteria is:

2×10²² mm³ * 100 bacteria/1 mm³ = 2×10²⁴ bacteria

Sound waves with a constant frequency of 250 hertz are traveling through air at stp. what is the wavelength of the sound waves
Deffense [45]

Answer:

wave length is 1.2m

Explanation:

since formula of wave length is v/f

v(speed of sound in air at stp is 300ms^-1)

f(frequency 250hertz)

then wave length is 300÷250 which give 1.2m
