Speed, why velocity has direction acceleration Is a change in speed and it doesn't give a direction so it's speed

Masja [62]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is speed.

Explanation:

Time rate of change in distance is called as speed. On the other hand, time rate of change in displacement is called velocity. The captain told time rate of change in distance (450 miles/hour) because he did not mention the direction. Hence, 450 miles/hour describes the speed of the plane. We do not identify any relation of this information with direction and acceleration.

Which in is it Speed (S) or Velocity (V)?

Andrej [43]

Explanation:

Speed has only magnitude.

Velocity has magnitude and direction.

"A bike goes 25 m/s toward main street."

This includes a direction, so it is velocity (V).

"A person walks 4 mph."

This has only magnitude, so it is speed (S).

"A plane flies 200 m/s."

This has only magnitude, so it is speed (S).

"A bird flies 100 mph due south."

This includes a direction, so it is velocity (V).

a student is pushing a 50 kilogram cart with a force of 500 newtons another students measures the speed of the cart and finds th

Irina-Kira [14]

The force of friction is 300 N

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by applying Newton's second law of motion: in fact, the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration. So we can write

$\sum F = ma$

where

$\sum F$ is the net force acting on the object

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

For the cart in this problem, we have two forces acting on it:

- The force of push, F = 500 N, forward

- The force of friction, $F_f$ , backward

So Newton's second law can be rewritten as

$F-F_f = ma$

where

m = 50 kg

$a=4 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the cart

And solving for $F_f$ , we find the force of friction:

$F_f = F-ma=500-(50)(4)=300 N$

An what would be needed to change an objects state of motion

VladimirAG [237]

Inertia: tendency of an object to resist changes in its velocity. An object at rest has zero velocity - and (in the absence of an unbalanced force) will remain with a zero velocity. Such an object will not change its state of motion (i.e., velocity) unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

On a windy day, the wind turbine transfers 78 W of power. Calculate the amount of energy the turbine transfers in 10s.

tangare [24]

Answer:

Energy = 780 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Power = 78 Watts

Time = 10 seconds

To find the energy transferred;

Energy refers to the amount or quantity of power which is being consumed by an individual, group of people or organization over a specific period of time.

Mathematically, energy is given by the formula;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 78 * 10

Energy = 780 Joules

Therefore, the amount of energy the turbine transferred is 780 Joules
