Explanation:

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time.

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

Velocity is given as the displacement per unit of time:

Velocity = $\frac{displacement}{time}$

Speed and velocity are similar but speed is a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity. Speed has magnitude but does not point towards a specific direction. Velocity shows both magnitude and direction and it is a vector quantity.

Acceleration is given as the change in velocity with time. It is a vector quantity:

Acceleration = $\frac{change in velocity}{time}$

Distance is how far a body moves. It is scalar quantity.
Time is the duration of an event. It is a scalar quantity.

Question #6a) You were told to assume that the ball bounced to a height of 1.2 m and that the distance between the bounces measu

Inessa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the problem they give the case of a ball that bounces on the vertical axis the height is getting smaller, on the x axis it is the same distance all the time.

Questions about the aspect of the x-axis

- Since the distance traveled between the rebounds is the same, the speed must be the same or constant throughout the entire journey.

- Since the distance and speed are equal, the time between rebounds is the same

- There can be no acceleration because the bounce gap should change, the acceleration is zero all the time

Questions about the Y axis

- The vertical speed of the first boat would be the greatest of all, so it has the highest height

b) Evidence or not Evidence

1 evidence, because the graphs are different, one is a straight line and he gives a parable

2 no evidence, nothing involved on the x axis

3 no evidence, the acceleration on the y axis is independent of the acceleration on the x axis

4 no evidence, the time that is cast is the only change that is the same for both movements

5 evidence, the fact that no mixture of components is found allows the variable to be separated into different equations

6 no evidence, says nothing about the x-axis

Two 30 uC charges lie on the x-axis, one at the origin and the other at 9 m. A third point is located at 27 m. What is the poten

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

25000 V

Explanation:

The formula for potential is

V = Kq/r

Potential at B due to the charge placed at origin O

V1 = K q / OB

$V_{1}= \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 30 \times 10^{-6}}{27}$

V1 = 10000 V

Potential at B due to the charge placed at A

V2 = K q / AB

$V_{2}= \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 30 \times 10^{-6}}{18}$

V2 = 15000 V

Total potential at B

V = V1 + V2 = 10000 + 15000 = 25000 V
