How fast a car goes is known as its speed.
Speed = (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance)
It has nothing to do with the direction the car is going.
______________________________________
The car's velocity is its speed AND the direction it's going.
30 miles per hour . . . speed
40 miles per hour north . . . velocity
20 miles per hour south
20 miles per hour west . . . . . same speed, different velocity
-- 'Velocity' is NOT a big word that you use when you mean
'speed' but you want to sound smarter. It's a different thing.
-- If you don't know anything about the direction the car is going,
then you can't say anything about its velocity.
-- If the car is going around a curve, then its velocity is constantly
changing, even if its speed is constant.
<span>So we want to know what happens to meteors that enter the Earth's atmosphere and experience air friction. So since most meteors that enter Earth's atmosphere are made out of ice and/or rocks, when they enter the atmosphere, they experience air friction and their temperature rises so high they either melt or burn up. So the correct answer is burns up. </span>
Answer:
3,237.78N
Explanation:
According to Newton's second law of motion
F = mass * acceleration
Since a = v-u/t
F = m(v-u)/t
Given
Mass m = 0.155kg
v = 50.0m/s
u = -44.0m/s
Time t = 0.00450secs
Substitute
F = 0.155(50-(-44))/0.00450
F = 0.155(50+44)/0.00450
F = 0.155(94)/0.00450
F = 14.57/0.00450
F = 3,237.78N
hence he hit the baseball with a force of 3,237.78N
Answer:
Part a)
v = 16.52 m/s
Part b)
v = 7.47 m/s
Explanation:
Part a)
(a) when the large-mass object is the one moving initially
So here we can use momentum conservation as the net force on the system of two masses will be zero
so here we can say

since this is a perfect inelastic collision so after collision both balls will move together with same speed
so here we can say



Part b)
(b) when the small-mass object is the one moving initially
here also we can use momentum conservation as the net force on the system of two masses will be zero
so here we can say

Again this is a perfect inelastic collision so after collision both balls will move together with same speed
so here we can say



b. 460.8 m/s
Explanation:
The relationship between the speed of the wave along the string, the length of the string and the frequency of the note is

where v is the speed of the wave, L is the length of the string and f is the frequency. Re-arranging the equation and substituting the data of the problem (L=0.90 m and f=256 Hz), we can find v:

c. 18,000 m
Explanation:
The relationship between speed of the wave, distance travelled and time taken is

where
v = 6,000 m/s is the speed of the wave
d = ? is the distance travelled
t = 3 s is the time taken
Re-arranging the formula and substituting the numbers into it, we find:
