Speed and velocity are similar, but which thing makes them different?

Biology
2 answers:
Sedbober [7]3 years ago
5 0

The velocity of the object is similar to speed but has one main difference: velocity takes into account the direction of an object. Since speed does not take direction into consideration, it is considered to be a scalar quantity. Thus, the speed of an object can never be negative.

The difference is speed doesn't account for direction

In the alteration of generations life cycle the spore undergoes mitosis to become a A) gametophyte B) sproohyte C) spore D) game
Eva8 [605]
<span>A mature sporophyte produces spores by meiosis, a process which reduces the number of chromosomes to half, from 2n to n. Because meiosis is a key step in the alternation of generations, it is likely that meiosis has a fundamental adaptive function. The nature of this function is still unresolved (see Meiosis), but the two main ideas are that meiosis is adaptive because it facilitates repair of DNA damages and/or that it generates genetic variation. The haploid spores germinate and grow into a haploid gametophyte. At maturity, the gametophyte produces gametes by mitosis, which does not alter the number of chromosomes. Two gametes (originating from different organisms of the same species or from the same organism) fuse to produce a zygote, which develops into a diploid sporophyte.</span>

Which of the following objects will exert the greatest gravitational force on a box, if the distance between them stays the same
Mumz [18]

Answer:

D). 8 kg mass

Explanation:

Acceleration of Falling Objects

Heavier things have a greater gravitational force AND heavier things have a lower acceleration. It turns out that these two effects exactly cancel to make falling objects have the same acceleration regardless of mass.

The greater an object's mass, the greater its gravitational force. The earth has a strong attracting force for objects with smaller mass (including the moon), and the sun has an attracting force on the earth and other planets in our solar system. ... The stronger the pull of gravity on an object, the greater its weight.
