Compare and contrast speed and velocity

Physics
1 answer:
Alex73 [517]3 years ago
8 0
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 :)

The resistivity of a silver wire with a radius of 5.04 × 10–4 m is 1.59 × 10–8 ω · m. if the length of the wire is 3.00 m, what
Alexxx [7]
<span>5.98 x 10^-2 ohms. Resistance is defined as: R = rl/A where R = resistance in ohms r = resistivity (given as 1.59x10^-8) l = length of wire. A = Cross sectional area of wire. So plugging into the formula, the known values, including the area of a circle being pi*r^2, gives: R = 1.59x10^-8 * 3.00 / (pi * (5.04 x 10^-4)^2) R = (4.77 x 10^-8) / (pi * 2.54016 x 10 ^-7) R = (4.77 x 10^-8) / (7.98015 x 10^-7) R = 5.98 x 10^-2 ohms So that wire has a resistance of 5.98 x 10^-2 ohms.</span>

How do mass and speed affect kinetic energy?
Lunna [17]
The mass affects the kinetic energy because the more the mass the more energy is given to the object and the speed<span> affects by making it go faster and longer, so whenever speed goes up so does energy.</span>

150c passes through cell in 30 seconds. cell has a potential difference of 12v. what is current in the circuit
zzz [600]

The current in the circuit is 5 A

Explanation:

The intensity of current is given by the equation:

I=\frac{q}{t}

where

I is the current

q is the amount of charge passing through a given point of the circuit in a time interval of t

For the cell in this problem, we have

q = 150 C is the charge

t = 30 s is the time interval

Substituting into the equation, we f ind

I=\frac{150}{30}=5 A

What describes a sound wave as it travels through a medium
Softa [21]
Sound waves in air (and any fluid medium) are longitudinal waves because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves.
