Which explains the information needed to calculate speed and velocity?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance

Explanation:

For calculating speed we require time and distance because speed is defined as the distance per unit time and as speed is a scalar quantity it does not have any direction

But for calculating the velocity we require time as well as displacement because velocity is defined as the displacement per unit time and as velocity is a vector quantity it has direction

Displacement is the shortest distance between the initial position and the final position and it has a specified direction as well

Salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore

  1. salt is not chemically bonded to water
  2. the ratio of salt to water may vary
  3. salt and water retain their own chemical properties

<u>Explanation:</u>

Salt (sodium chloride) is formed from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions. Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water particles attracts the negative chloride ions of salt. The water particle effects to be charged negatively near the atom of oxygen and positively near the atom of hydrogen.

Since contrasts attract, the water molecules tend to join collectively like magnets. Water is called the universal solvent since it can solve more substances than any other liquid. The salt and water retain their unique chemical properties.
