Does the speedometer of a car measure speed or velocity? Explain.

Physics

deff fn [24]3 years ago
6 0
Car speedometer only measures speed and doesn't give any information about direction. So yes to speed, no to velocity. ... Therefore the object CANNOT have a varying speed if its velocity is constant.

Read through the and calculate the predicted change in kinetic energy of the oblect compared to 50 kg ball traveling at 10 m/s .
Sliva [168]

Answer:

A 50 kg ball traveling at 20 m/s would have 4 times more kinetic energy.

A 50 kg ball traveling at 5 m/s would have 4 times less kinetic energy.

A 50 kg person falling at 10 m/s would have the same kinetic energy.

Explanation:

hope this helps:)

The circuits, P and Q, show two different ammeter-voltmeter methods of measuring resistance. Suppose the ammeter has a resistanc
qaws [65]

Answer:

Uncorrected values for

For circuit P

R = 2.4 ohm

For circuit Q

R = 2.4 ohm

Corrected values

for circuit P

R = 12 OHM

For circuit Q

R = 2.3 ohm

Explanation:

Given data:

Ammeter resistance 0.10 ohms

Resister resistance 3.0 ohms

Voltmeter read 6 volts

ammeter reads 2.5 amp

UNCORRECTED VALUES FOR

1) circuit P

we know that IR =V

R = \frac{6}{2.5} - 2.4 ohm

2) circuit Q

R = 2.4 ohm as no potential drop across ammeter

CORRECTED VALUES FOR

1) circuit p

IR = V

\frac{3R}{R+3} \times 2.5 = 6

R= 12 ohm

2) circuit Q

I\times (R+0.1) =V

R+0.1 =\frac{6}{2.5}

R = 2.3 ohm

The speed of a 2.0-kg object changes from 30 m/s to 40 m/s during a 5.0-second time interval.
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

F = 2 * 30 / 5 = 12 N to stop forward motion

F = 2 * 40 / 5 = 16 N to accelerate to 90 degrees

(12^2 + 16^2)^1.2 = 20 N   average force applied

Q011) The Doppler effect a. occurs when the frequency of sound waves received is lower if the wave source is moving toward you t
inn [45]

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

The apparent change in the frequency of light due to the relative motion between the source and the observer is called Doppler's effect.

When the source is moving towards the observer which is at rest, the apparent frequency increases and if the observer is moving away the frequency of sound decreases.

It occurs for both light and sound.  

So, to explain the blue shift of light in the universe is due to the Doppler's effect of light.
