Speed is a vector quantity

Physics
1 answer:
Lilit [14]3 years ago
7 0

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.

What is linear speed called when something moves in a circle
Dmitry [639]

Answer: Tangential Velocity

The tangential velocity V is defined as the angular velocity \omega by the radius r of circular motion. As shown below:

V=\omega. r

Its name is due to the fact that this linear velocity vector is always tangent to the trajectory and is the distance traveled by a body or object in a circular movement in a period of time.

A teacher pushed a 98 newton desk across a floor for a distance of 5 meter he exerted a horizontal force of 20 newton for four s
Rom4ik [11]
Missing question: "how much work is done by the teacher?" (found on internet)

Solution:
The work done to move the desk across the floor is equal to
W=Fd
where F is the horizontal force applied to move the desk, and d is the distance covered by the desk. If we use F=20 N and d=5 m, we find the work done:
W=Fd=(20 N)(5 m)=100 J

Explain Kinetic and potential energy
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Energy implies as the object’s capability to perform work. It is something that cannot be created or destroyed but can only be transformed. An object loses its energy, when it performs work, whereas it gains energy when the work is performed on it. Energy is broadly classified as kinetic energy and potential energy. While kinetic energy is the energy which an object contains because of a particular motion.

On the other hand, potential energy is the stored energy, because of its state of rest. As both the two forms of energy are measured in joules, people get easily confused between these two. So, take a read of the article which will help you to understand the differences between kinetic and potential energy.

Explanation:

Hope this helps - Good luck ^w

A cart rolling down an incline for 5.0 seconds has an acceleration of 4.0 m/s .If the cart has an initial speed of of 2.0 m/s ,w
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Applying

v=u+a.t

(all the symbols are bearing their conventional meaning)

Here,u=2ms−1,t=5,a=4ms−2

So,v=2+4⋅5=22ms−1
