Which statement describes the difference between speed and velocity

2 answers:

7 0

Velocity is speed plus a direction.

30 miles per hour to the north
30 miles per hour to the east

These are the same speed but different velocities.

Explanation :

Distance : The total path covered during the entire journey of any particle.

Displacement : The smallest path covered by a particle.

Speed : It is defined as the total distance covered divided by total time taken. It has only magnitude not direction.

Velocity : It is defined as the total displacement traveled by a particle divided by total time taken. It is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction.

Hence, the correct option is (A) " Velocity is speed with a direction".

Death Star has a diameter of 160,000m and a mass of 5.1e17kg. Millennium Falcon has a mass of 1.36e6kg (data from Wookieepedia)

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

7229 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Death Star and the Millenium Falcon is given by:

$F=G\frac{mM}{R^2}$

where

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

$M=5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg$ is the mass of the Death Star

$m=1.36\cdot 10^6 kg$ is the mass of the Millennium Falcon

$R=\frac{160,000 m}{2}=80,000 m$ is the radius of the Death Star

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the force

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(1.36\cdot 10^6 kg)(5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg)}{(80,000 m)^2}=7229 N$

A photographer wants to determine the color of light he can use in the darkroom that will not expose the films he is processing.

Sonbull [250]

For a photographer that wishes to determine the color of light that he can use in a dark room that will not expose the films he is processing, having used a Blue Incandescent bulb, he should proceed to use a Red Incandescent bulb for the next trial.

The photographer in question is performing an experiment. For these kinds of experiments it is important to identify the variables present, which can be of three kinds:

Control variables
Dependent variables
Independent variables

For this experiment, the dependent variable is the exposure of the light onto the films, given that this is what we wish to measure. The independent variable will be the color of the light being used which is what will affect the dependent variable.

The remaining variable must be the control variable. Unlike the previous variables, we can have more than one of these. The control variable is there to make sure that only the dependent variable is affecting the outcome. We do this by keeping the control variable the same through each trial, which is why the photographer should not change the type of bulb in the second experiment, changing only the color of the light.
