Speed is a vector quantity

Physics
1 answer:
Lilit [14]3 years ago

The average speed is the distance (a scalar quantity) per time ratio. Speed is ignorant of direction. On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes.

Two poles are connected by a wire that is also connected to the ground. The first pole is 20ft tall and the second pole is 10ft
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: 31.6ft

Explanation:

Check the attachment for the diagram.

According to the right angle triangle AEC, we will use Pythagoras theorem to get |AC|. Note that |AE| = |AB| - |CD|

that is 20ft - 10ft = 10ft

According to the theorem, the square of the sum of the adjacent side and the opposite side is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

|AE|^2 + |EC|^2 = |AC|^2

10^2 + 30^2 = |AC|^2

100 + 900 = |AC|^2

|AC| = √1000

|AC| = 31.6ft

Therefore, the wire should be anchored 31.6ft to the ground to minimize the amount of wire needed.

on a high way a car is driven 80 km the first 1 he of travel, 50km during the next 0.5 he, and 40 km in the final 0.5 hr. What i
Leno4ka [110]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (total time to cover the distance) .

Total distance = (80 + 50 + 40) = 170 km

Total time = (1 + 0.5 + 0.5) = 2 hours

Average speed = (170 km) / (2 hrs) = 85 km/hr .

<h2>Answer:Radiation-3,Conduction-1,Convection-2</h2>

Explanation:

Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.

These waves do not require any medium.This is the way we get heat from sun.Radiation is the quickest mode to transfer of heat.

Conduction is the transfer of heat through collisions of atomic particles.

This phenomenon largely occurs in solids like metals.The neighbour atoms sets the atoms into random motion thereby raising the temperature.

Convection is the transfer of heat through actual movement of medium particle.

This phenomenon occurs in gases an liquids.The medium particles actually traverse through the space transferring the heat.
