Answer:

1. distance and period of time.

Explanation:

The speed is calculated using the formula $k = \frac{d}{t}$

"k" is the speed, "d" is the distance and "t" is the time.

You need distance and time to calculate the speed.

Speed is how fast an object is going. The direction is irrelevant to speed, not to be confused with velocity, which is speed in a given direction.

Why do things become hot or cold? Relate to Thermal Energy and The Law of Conservation of Energy

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Things become hot and cold because of the transfer of energy.

Explanation:

The energy possessed by an object or system is called thermal energy and heat is the flow of this energy. While the law of conversation of energy states that energy is not destroyed or created, it just transfers from one object to another.

When a hot object is placed in normal conditions, it transfers heat to the environment until both are at the same temperature and heat transfers from the environment to the cold objects placed in normal conditions.

The advantage is that we do not run out of resources and a disadvantage is that is dangerous when a “human” gets too close and gets sick by the radiation.

Earth’s atmosphere is in hydrostatic equilibrium. What this means is that the pressure at any point in the atmosphere must be hi

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: The pressure that one experiences on the Mount Everest will be different from the one, in a classroom. It is because pressure and height are inversely proportional to each other. This means that as we move up, the height keeps on increasing but the pressure will keep on decreasing. This is the case that will be observed when one stands on the Mount Everest as the pressure is comparatively much lower there.

It is because as we move up, the amount of air molecules keeps on decreasing but all of the air molecules are concentrated on the lower part of the atmosphere or on the earth's surface.

Thus a person in a low altitude inside a classroom will experience high pressure and a person standing on the Mount Everest will experience low pressure.
