Physics

Answer : The correct option is, Velocity.

Explanation :

Acceleration : It is defined as the rate of change of velocity of an object wit respect to the time. Acceleration is a vector quantity that means it depends on the magnitude and direction of an object. The S.I unit of acceleration is, m/s^2

Distance : It is defined as the how far an object has traveled in time. Distance is a scalar quantity that means it is depends on the magnitude of an object only. The S.I unit of distance is, m

Speed : It is defined as the distance traveled by an object in unit time. Speed is also a scalar quantity. The S.I unit of speed is, m/s

Velocity : It is defined as the change in the position with respect to the time. Velocity is a vector quantity that means it depends on the magnitude and direction of an object. The S.I unit of velocity is, m/s

Mary traveled 70 miles/hour due north. This is an example of velocity. 70 miles/hour tell us about the magnitude of the object and north tell us about the direction of an object.

Hence, the correct option is, velocity.

Since we know Mary's speed AND direction, we have
all the information we need to state her velocity.

Which combination of temperature and pressure correctly describes standard temperature and pressure
raketka [301]

Answer: A combination 0 degrees Celsius and 101.3 kPa or 1 atm correctly describes standard temperature and pressure.

Explanation:

The term standard temperature and pressure is also known as STP and it is most commonly used when we want to calculate the density of a gas.

The term standard temperature means 32^{o} Fahrenheit or 0^{o}C or 273 Kelvin. On the other hand, term standard pressure means 1 atmosheric pressure of a gas.

Thus, we can conclude that a combination 0 degrees Celsius and 101.3 kPa or 1 atm correctly describes standard temperature and pressure.

A 0.5 kg basketball moving 5 m/s to the right collides with a 0.05 kg tennis
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A. 1.4 m/s to the left

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of momentum. Let's define the velocity signs according to the direction, if the velocity is to the right, a positive sign will be introduced into the equation, if the velocity is to the left, a negative sign will be introduced into the equation. Two moments will be analyzed in this equation. The moment before the collision and the moment after the collision. The moment before the collision is taken to the left of the equation and the moment after the collision to the right, so we have:

M_{before} = M_{after}

where:

M = momentum [kg*m/s]

M = m*v

where:

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

(m_{1} *v_{1} )-(m_{2} *v_{2})=(m_{1} *v_{3} )+(m_{2} *v_{4})

where:

m1 = mass of the basketball = 0.5 [kg]

v1 = velocity of the basketball before the collision = 5 [m/s]

m2 = mass of the tennis ball = 0.05 [kg]

v2 = velocity of the tennis ball before the collision = - 30 [m/s]

v3 =  velocity of the basketball after the collision [m/s]

v4 = velocity of the tennis ball after the collision = 34 [m/s]

Now replacing and solving:

(0.5*5) - (0.05*30) = (0.5*v3) + (0.05*34)

1 - (0.05*34) = 0.5*v3

- 0.7 = 0.5*v

v = - 1.4 [m/s]

The negative sign means that the movement is towards left

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

B. Time and Space

Explanation:

Matter is a pshyical or corporeal susbtance in general, whether solid, liquid, or gaseous especially as distinguised from incorpeal substance, as spirit or mind, or form qualities, actions, and the

Within this time-and-space boundary, all matter exists. All matter is made up of atoms. Because these atoms take up space in the universe, solids, liquids, and gases are recognized as existing and may be found in all three dimensions.

Time is a figurative term. Space has three dimensions but time only has one.

An object is at rest in front of a compressed spring. It travels over a surface that exerts a kinetic frictional force on it and
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

the object will travel 0.66 meters before to stop.

Explanation:

Using the energy conservation theorem:

E_i+K_i+W_f=K_f+U_f

The work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_f*d\\W_f=\µ*m*g*d\\W_f=0.35*4*9.81*d\\W_f=13.7d[J]

so:

\frac{1}{2}1800*(10*10^{-2})+0-13.7d=0+0\\d=0.66m
