Compare and contrast speed and velocity

Physics
1 answer:
Alex73 [517]3 years ago

Where speed is distance/time, velocity is displacement/time. 

What this means is that velocity is the length covered in relation to the starting point. 
Speed is just the distance travelled no matter where you began. 

When going around a circular track, you might have a speed value. However, since you get back to the same location at every lap, you have 0 velocity. 

Hope I helped :)

Answer:

The transformation went from a gas to a solid which is a Deposition

Explanation:

Deposition is the phase transition in which gas transforms into solid without passing through the liquid phase. Deposition is a thermodynamic process. The reverse of deposition is sublimation and hence sometimes deposition is called desublimation.

Which statement about the dark nebulae is true?(A) They can be penetrated only with shorter waves, such as UV and x-ray.(B) They
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: (B) They can be penetrated only with longer wavelengths such as radio and infrared.

Explanation:

A dark nebula is a type of interstellar cloud with such a high density that it "hides" the light of the background stars.

It should be noted that these nebulae are composed mostly of hydrogen (the star's primary fuel), and the absence of light (in the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum) is caused by the interstellar solid dust that constitutes the cloud, which is why they are also called absorption nebulae.

However, <u>if powerful telescopes that detect at long wavelengths, such as infrared and X-rays, it is possible to observe through these nebulae and even observe the existence of young stars.</u>

1. Two charged objects have a repulsive force of 2 N. If the charge of one of the objects is doubled, then the new force will be
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

4 N

Explanation:

Electrostatic force is directly related to the charge of each object hence when the charge is doubled in only one of the objects, the force also double. If it's doubles on both objects, the force becomes four times. In this case, it's doubled on one object hence 2*2= 4 N
