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.

You have an empty 20 oz. soda bottle and you blow air over the opening to excite a fundamental standing wave. Now, you slice off
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The frequency of the standing wave in the second case is higher than that in the first case

Explanation:

The frequency and wavelength of a wave are related.

The moment you sliced the bottle, you've reduced the wavelength of the bottle.

When wavelength decreases, frequency increases and vice versa.

So, When frequency increases in the second case, more wave crests pass a fixed point each second. That means the wavelength shortens. So, as frequency increases, wavelength decreases. The opposite is also true—as frequency decreases, wavelength increases.

Which law applies to the picture?<br>Newtons 1st Law?<br>Newton's 2nd Law?<br>Newton's 3rd Law?​
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Newtons 1st Law.

Explanation:

Because it states as every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.
