What is constant velocity in comparison to instantaneous velocity?

Physics
1 answer:
sergij07 [2.7K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Constant velocity is the uniform velocity. That is, the velocity is steady and it does not change. You will have a constant velocity when you maintain a certain velocity for a long time without changing it.

At constant velocity, acceleration is equal to zero.

Instantaneous velocity is the change in distance in a specific direction per specific time. It is a velocity at a certain time. It is not uniform.

Change in instantaneous velocity is equal to acceleration.

It will also stop if it hits something, like a player’s stick or a goalpost.  If you kicked a ball in space, it would keep going forever, because there is no gravity, friction or air resistance going against it. It will only stop going in one direction if it hits something like a meteorite or reaches the gravity field of another planet.  If you are driving in your car at a very high speed and hit something, like a brick wall or a tree, the car will come to an instant stop, but you will keep moving forward.

It's velocity changes, but its speed remains the same.<br> The<br> true or false
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Velocity is a vector quantity, which means that it carries both magnitude and direction. Hence when direction of a particle changes, although magnitude (speed) may remain same, it's velocity changes due to direction change. For ex. A particle is m... A particle is moving along x axis with speed 1m/s, it's velocity will be represented as 1i (i represents unit vector along x)

But if it now starts moving along y axis, it's velocity is 1j (j represents unit vector along y axis). Hence velocity changes with direction.

What is the frequency of an x- ray if the wavelength is 4.5 E - 10m?
AnnZ [28]
V (speed) = F (frequency) x Wavelength
If we rearrange the formula, making frequency the subject;
F (frequency) = Speed ÷ Wavelength
F = 300,000 m\s x 4.5 e -10m
F = 0.08810409956 Hz

Engineers tasked with building a car bumper need high-quality plastic that is readily available. They found the material polycar
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The material must be durable (quality of the material requirement)

Explanation:

The design criteria set for the materials used for technological design are;

1) The materials should be affordable (less costly)

2) The materials should be last for a long duration (high durability)

3) The material should be readily available (easily sourced)

Therefore, given that the engineers initially had the criteria for the required plastic to be of high quality and to be readily available, and that the poly-carbonate they found is long lasting and not too costly, the criteria met that was set initially was the  quality criteria of durability.

gas has a volume of 185 ml and pressure of 310 mm hg. The desiered volume is 74.0 ml. What is the required new pressure
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The required new pressure is 775 mm hg.

Explanation:

We are given that gas has a volume of 185 ml and a pressure of 310 mm hg. The desired volume is 74.0 ml.

We have to find the required new pressure.

Let the required new pressure be '\text{P}_2'.

As we know that Boyle's law formula states that;

                    P_1 \times V_1 = P_2 \times V_2

where, P_1 = original pressure of gas in the container = 310 mm hg

           P_2 = required new pressure

            V_1 = volume of gas in the container = 185 ml

            V_2 = desired new volume of the gas = 74 ml

So,  P_2 = \frac{P_1 \times V_1}{V_2}  

       P_2 = \frac{310 \times 185}{74}

            =  775 mm hg

Hence, the required new pressure is 775 mm hg.
