Answer:

The absolute value of the slope of a position-time graph.

Explanation:

The slope in a time position graph is the derivative of the position with respect to time.

This derivative of the position with respect to time is what is known as velocity, which is a vector quantity.

Speed is the absolute value of velocity, since it is a scalar quantity, it has no sign and no direction.

<u>So the correct answer is that speed is the absolute value of the slope in a graph of position and time.</u>

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Instantaneous velocity is equal to speed of the object at that particular instant.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Instantaneous velocity is the velocity of the object at that particular instant. It is also equal to speed of the object at that instant. It can be calculated by drawing a tangent to the position-time graph at that point and finding the tangent’s slope.

The first option ‘The ratio of change in position to the time interval during that change’  gives the average velocity of an object and not speed. Similarly the second option ‘the absolute value of the slope of position time graph’ gives the average speed.

The flow of electrons through a circuit is measured in which of the following units? A. electrical pressure B. amperes C. volts
damaskus [11]

The total quantity of electrons that have flowed through a circuit is a
quantity of charge, measured in Coulombs, or in Ampere-seconds.

The <em><u>rate</u></em> of flow of electrons, or more accurately the rate of flow of
the charge on them, is electrical current.  Its unit is the Ampere. 
1 Ampere is 1 Coulomb of charge per second.

1. A rocket is fired vertically from the launch pad with a
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Max height= 36000 meters

Total Time = 120 seconds

Explanation:

0 = U - at

U = at

U= 20*60

U= 1200 m/s

MAX altitude would be

(U²Sin²tita)/2g

Max height= 1200² *( SIN90)²/(2*20)

Time of FLIGHT

2 * 1200/20

2400/20

120 sec onds
