Basically velocity is a vector quantity and is specified in m/s (meters/second). Speed is the distance traveled by an object where as, velocity is distance traveled by an object per unit time in a particular direction. Speed is a scalar quantity where as velocity is a vector quantity

Velocity tells you how fast and gives a direction. Speed only tells how fast.

A tree is 257 ft high. To the nearest tenth of a meter, how tall is it in meters? There are 3.28 ft in 1 m.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Height of tree = 78.35 meters.

Explanation:

We have

          1 meter = 3.28 feet

That is

          1 ft = \frac{1}{3.28}=0.3048m

Here height of tree = 257 ft

Height of tree = 257 x 0.3048 = 78.35 m

Height of tree = 78.35 meters.

Interactive Solution 26.7 offers one model for problems like this one. In a certain time, light travels 3.97 km in a vacuum. Dur
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Refractive Index = 1.52

Explanation:

As we know speed of light in vaccum is 3 x 10^8 meters per second and distance tavelled by light is 3.97 km or 397000m.

Time taken by light in vaccum = distance / speed = 397000 / 3 x 10^8 = 1.323 x 10^-3 s

Speed of light in liquid = distance / time taken = 261000 / 1.323 x 10^-3 = 197278911 ms^-1 = 1.972 x 10^ 8 ms^-1

According to Snell's law

Refractive index = speed of light in vaccum / speed of light in medium = 3 x 10^8 ms^-1 / 1.972 x 10^8 ms^-1 = 1.52
