Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction. Distance is a scalar quantity. It refers only to how far an object has traveled. For example, 4 feet is a distance; it gives no information about direction.

There are no scalar quantities on the list you provided.

Some examples of scalar quantities are: distance, speed, mass, cost, temperature, density

How can the speed of ripples in a ripple tank be changed​
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

By putting something like a sheet of glass in the water.

Explanation:

Putting a sheet of glass in the water will make the ripples move slower because the speed of a wave depends on the depth of water.

Describe the formation of the land, the atmosphere, and the oceans of earth
Firlakuza [10]
Land: Tectonic plate movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills. Erosion by water and wind can wear down land and create landforms like valleys and canyons. ... Landforms can exist under water in the form of mountain ranges and basins under the sea.

Atmosphere: (4.6 billion years ago)
As Earth cooled, an atmosphere formed mainly from gases spewed from volcanoes. It included hydrogen sulfide, methane, and ten to 200 times as much carbon dioxide as today's atmosphere. After about half a billion years, Earth's surface cooled and solidified enough for water to collect on it.

Ocean: After the Earth's surface had cooled to a temperature below the boiling point of water, rain began to fall—and continued to fall for centuries. As the water drained into the great hollows in the Earth's surface, the primeval ocean came into existence. The forces of gravity prevented the water from leaving the planet.

An object is going to the left at constant velocity. What is true? All forces acting on the object balance each other out. There
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Net force of the object is zero.

Explanation:

When an object is going to the left at constant velocity, this means there is no acceleration. Hence, no force. Had there been force,acceleration had been inevitable. Therefore, we can say that when an object moves with a constant velocity and in same direction, the net force on the object is zero.

A wave has a speed of 30 m/s, a frequency of 6 Hz, and a wavelength of 5 m. If the wavelength remains constant, and the frequenc
mixer [17]

Answer: 60m/s

Explanation:

The wavespeed is the distance covered by the wave in one second. It is measured in metre per second, and represented by the symbol V

Wavespeed (V) = Frequency F x wavelength λ

i.e V = F λ

In the first case:

Wavespeed = 30 m/s

Frequency of sound = 6Hz

Wavelength = 5m

In the second case:

Wavespeed = ?

Frequency of sound = (2x 6Hz = 12Hz)

Wavelength = 5m (remains constant)

Apply V = F λ

Wavespeed = 12 Hz x 5m

Wavespeed = 60m/s

Therefore, when frequency is doubled, the speed is also doubled. Thus, the new speed of the wave is 60m/s

you leave your house and travel for 6 minutes at an average velocity of 5 m/s. How far have you traveled?​
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1800 m

Explanation:

This question requires you to calculate the distance traveled after 6 minutes at a speed of 5m/s

Given speed as 5m/s and time is 6 minutes then;

Change minutes to seconds by multiplying the minutes by 60 seconds

1 minute=60 seconds

6 minutes= 6*60 = 360 seconds

Apply the formula for speed where;

S=D/T where S is speed, D is distance and T is time

To get D , rewrite formula as S*T

where S= 5m/s and T=360s

D= 5*360 =1800m
