Answer: Speed

Explanation: Scalar quantity is the quantity that only possess magnitude but no direction.

Vector quantity is the quantity that only possess magnitude as well as  direction.

Speed is defined as the displacement of an object per unit time and is a scalar quantity as it does not involve any direction.

Velocity is defined as the distance moved by an object per unit time and is a vector quantity as it deals with magnitude as well as direction.

Hello!

To calculate the speed(velocity) of a moving object, we can divide the displacement by the time interval in which the displacement occurred.

This is based off the formula:
v=d/t

Where v=velocity, d=total displacement, t=Time interval

Hope this helps. Any question please just ask. Thank you kindly.

1 hp is equal to? What is the answer​
rewona [7]
The electrical equivalent of one horsepower is 746 watts in the International System of Units (SI), and the heat equivalent is 2,545 BTU (British Thermal Units) per hour. Another unit of power is the metric horsepower, which equals 4,500 kilogram-metres per minute (32,549 foot-pounds per minute), or 0.9863 horsepower.

A 1.5m wire carries a 6 A current when a potential difference of 68 V is applied. What is the resistance of the wire?
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

11.3 \Omega

Explanation:

We can find the resistance of the wire by using Ohm's law:

V=RI

where

V is the voltage applied

R is the resistance

I is the current

In this problem, we know I = 6 A and V = 68 V, so we can re-arrange the equation to find the resistance of the wire:

R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{68 V}{6 A}=11.3 \Omega

Longitudinal sound waves cannot propagate through
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

A vacuum

Explanation:

Sound waves are examples of mechanical waves. Mechanical waves are waves which are transmitted through the vibrations of the particles in a medium.

For example, sound waves in air consist of oscillations of the air particles, which vibrate back and forth (longitudinal wave) along the direction of propagation of the wave itself.

Given this definition of mechanical wave, we see that such a wave cannot propagate if there is no medium, because there are no particles that would oscillate. Therefore, among the choices given, the following one:

a vacuum

represent the only situation in which a sound wave cannot propagate through: in fact, there are no particles in a vacuum, so the oscillations cannot occur. In all other cases, instead, sound waves can propagate.
