Physics
1 answer:
ss7ja [257]2 years ago
4 0
The difference between speed and velocity is that the speed is a scalar quantity which means that you can say that this object has a speed of x m/s but you don't have to define its direction
while the velocity is a vector quantity which means that you have to express the velocity by which it moves in x,y and z directions and its norm is the speed

What happens if an air conditioner is used in a house that is not well insulated and not well scaled? Explain in terms of energy
stira [4]
It will use a lot more energy (electricity) to cool down the room. Because heat energy from outside the room can easily transfer into the room again if the room is not well insulated. So more energy is needed to cool down the room again
