Mary travelled 70 miles/hour due north. This is an example of what?
2 answers:
Answer:
velocity.
Explanation:
Velocity is a vector quantity, which consists of:
- a magnitude, which is equal to the ratio between the displacement of an object and the time taken for the displacement to occur:
- a direction, which is equal to the direction of the displacement
In this case, we are given both the magnitude (70 miles/hour) and the direction (north), so this is an example of velocity.

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the calculation of the speed of sound, the calculation of the Mach number and finally the calculation of the temperature at the front stagnation point. We will calculate the speed in international units as well as the temperature. With these values we will calculate the speed of the sound and the number of Mach. Finally we will calculate the temperature at the front stagnation point.
The altitude is,
And the velocity can be written as,
From the properties of standard atmosphere at altitude z = 20km temperature is
Velocity of sound at this altitude is
Then the Mach number
So front stagnation temperature
Therefore the temperature at its front stagnation point is 689.87K
