What is the difference between speed and velocity and give an example.

Physics

Velocity is the speed with a direction and speed does not have a direction.

For example your driving 200km/hr (the speed) in a northerly direction. This is analogous to the difference between distance and displacement.

Which example has gravitational potential energy?
Lostsunrise [7]

B. An apple about to fall from a tree branch

This is because potential energy is the energy before its actuall motion, or before kinetic energy (energy in motion). And the apple ABOUT TO FALL mentions a gravitational example.

Suppose a small quantity of radon gas, which has a half-life of 3.8 days, is accidentally released into the air in a laboratory.
Daniel [21]

Answer:

1 day

Explanation:

Let the safe level = x

The current level = x + 0.2x = 1.2 x

Thus,

Half life = 3.8 days

t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac {ln\ 2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac {ln\ 2}{3.8}\ days^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 0.1824 days⁻¹

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

So,

\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]} = x / 1.2 x = 0.8333

t = ?

\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}=e^{-k\times t}

0.8333=e^{-0.1824\times t}

t ≅ 1 day

<u>Lab must be vacated in 1 day.</u>

What area of earth contains semi-solid rock and lava?
ioda
Below the crust is the mantle, a dense, hot layer of semi-solid rock approximately 2,900 km thick. The mantle, which contains more iron, magnesium, and calcium than the crust, is hotter and denser because temperature and pressure inside the Earth increase with depth.

Hope this helped! :)
