We commonly know refer to something 'digital' has to something electronic that can be visibly seen such as a watch, clock, camera, screen, etc.  It really refers to stored energy or electricity that's not natural.  But the word 'digital' in science refers to the depiction of data or information in figures (such as in a table) in contrast to as a chart, graph, drawing, or other pictorial form.

Explanation:

The scientific use of the term digital is much changed from the current use because the term digital in science is a way of representing a discontinuous phenomenon or something this is just finite and faulty. It also describes a data in figures with the use of this term. While “digital” generally refers to electronics in general, the scientific explanation of digital is much different

A car moves in a straight line at 22.0 m/s for 10.0miles, then at 30.0 m/s for another 10.0miles. Calculate the car’s average sp
maw [93]

Answer: 25.38 m/s

Explanation:

We have a straight line where the car travels a total distance D, which is divided into two segments d=10 miles:

D=d+d=2d (1)

Where d=10mi \frac{1609.34 m}{1 mi}=16093.4 m

On the other hand, we know speed is defined as:

S=\frac{d}{t} (2)

Where t is the time, which can be isolated from (2):

t=\frac{d}{S} (3)

Now, for the first segment d=16093.4 m the car has a speed S_{1}=22m/s, using equation (3):

t_{1}=\frac{d}{S_{1}} (4)

t_{1}=\frac{16093.4 m}{22m/s} (5)

t_{1}=731.518 s (6) This is the time it takes to travel the first segment

For the second segment d=16093.4 m the car has a speed S_{1}=30m/s,  hence:

t_{2}=\frac{d}{S_{2}} (7)

t_{2}=\frac{16093.4 m}{30m/s} (8)

t_{2}=536.44 s (9) This is the time it takes to travel the secons segment

Having these values we can calculate the car's average speed S_{ave}:

S_{ave}=\frac{d + d}{t_{1} + t_{2}}=\frac{2d}{t_{1} + t_{2}} (10)

S_{ave}=\frac{2(16093.4 m)}{731.518 s +536.44 s} (11)

Finally:

S_{ave}=25.38 m/s
