Answer:

Instantaneous speed is a scalar quantity.

Instantaneous velocity is a vector quantity.

Consider an object moving at a constant speed in a circle.

There is no change in speed as the object continues in a circular motion.

The acceleration however is

a = v^2 / r because a vector representing the object is continually changing direction and the change in velocity is not zero as time increases.

Answer:

Explanation:

25) Electrical -> thermal. In a toaster, there is a resistance through which current flows. Due to the Joule effect, the current flowing through the resistor causes an increase of temperature of the resistor itself, therefore the energy of the current (electrical) is converted into thermal energy, which is then used to heat the toast.
