Since velocity is a speed and a direction, there are only two ways for you to accelerate: change your speed or change your direction—or change both. If you're not changing your speed and you're not changing your direction, then you simply cannot be accelerating—no matter how fast you're going.
Speed or power activities
Answer:
This question is about matching each definition with its correct term. Please find the term matched with their appropriate definition below.
Explanation:
1. Empirical evidence: An empirical evidence is an observational evidence i.e an evidence gathered by observation or use of senses.
2. Dependent variable: Dependent variable is an experimental factor that changes in response to a change in the independent variable. In other words, it is dependent on the independent variable.
3. Applied research: Applied research is a type of research oriented at solving a present problem or need. It encompasses the production of products that can be sold for profit.
4. Hypothesis: A hypothesis in an experiment is a proposed explanation for a scientific problem that itself can be tested by experimentation. A hypothesis aims at providing a testable explanation to an observed problem.
5. Control: A control is a quantity in an experiment that remains unchanged or constant. It is kept the same by the experimenter for all groups in the experiment in order not to influence the outcome.
6. Basic research: Basic research is the research that expands knowledge in a particular area. It is the kind of research that aims at filling a knowledge void or satiating curiosity.
7. Independent variable: The independent variable is the experimental factor that is changed or manipulated deliberately by the scientist.
Answer:
IMA = 2.5 metres
EFFICIENCY = 80%
Explanation:
The AMA of a machine is referred to as the Actual Mechanical Advantage of a machine, calculated as the ratio of the output to the input force.
The Ideal Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the input distance to the output distance.
From the diagram, the input distance which is also the distance moved by effort = 5metres
The load distance (output distance) = 2 metres
IMA = INPUT DISTANCE / OUTPUT DISTANCE
IMA = 5metres / 2 metres = 2.5 meters
Efficiency is the ratio of AMA TO IMA
AMA = 2, IMA = 2.5
EFFICIENCY = AMA / IMA
EFFICIENCY = (2 / 2.5) × 100%= 0.8 × 100%
EFFICIENCY = 80%
