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.

Ngan has a weight of 314.5 N on Mars and a weight 833.0 N on Earth. What is Ngan's mass on Earth?
mr_godi [17]

Ngan's mass on earth is 85kg.

Ngan has a weight on Mars = 14.5 N

Ngan’s weight on Earth = 833.0 N

Ngan’s mass on Earth = ?

<span>Fg,earth = mg(earth)</span>

<span>M = Fg,earth </span><span>/ g(earth)</span>

<span>M = 833.0 N / 9.8 m/s2</span>

<span>M = 85 kg</span>

In an engine, a piston oscillates with simple harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the expression x= 5.0 cos
lakkis [162]

Answer:

a)   x = 4.33 m ,   b)  w = 2 rad / s ,  f = 0.318 Hz ,  c) a = - 17.31 cm / s²,  

d) T =  3.15 s,  e)  A = 5.0 cm

Explanation:

In this exercise on simple harmonic motion we are given the expression for motion

          x = 5 cos (2t + π / 6)

they ask us for t = 0

a) the position of the particle

      x = 5 cos (π / 6)

      x = 4.33 m

remember angles are in radians

 

b) The general form of the equation is

          x = A cos (w t + Ф)

when comparing the two equations

         w = 2 rad / s

angular velocity and frequency are related

          w = 2π f

           f = w / 2π

           f = 2 / 2pi

           f = 0.318 Hz

c) the acceleration is defined by

      a == d²x / dt²

      a = - A w² cos (wt + Ф)

for t = 0 ,  we substitute

      a = - 5,0 2² cos (π / 6)

      a = - 17.31 cm / s²

d) El period is

          T = 1/f

         T= 1/0.318

         T =  3.15 s

e) the amplitude

        A = 5.0 cm

What's a difference between mercury and oxygen?<br> (They both are elements)
borishaifa [10]

--  There are 80 protons in the nucleus of every atom of Mercury,
but only 8 of them in the nucleus of an atom of Oxygen.

-- Mercury must be warmer than 357°C in order to boil, but Oxygen
must only be warmer than -183°C.

--  Mercury must be colder than -39°C in order to freeze, but Oxygen
must be colder than -219°C.

--  Oxygen is required for human life.  Mercury is a deadly poison.
