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.

How and why does air pressure change with altitude in the atmosphere?
wlad13 [49]
Pressure with Height: pressure decreases with incrementing altitude. The pressure at any caliber in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a homogeneous surface at lower calibers.

The potential energy of a particle as a function of position will be given as U(x) = A x2 + B x + C, where U will be in joules w
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

F = - 2 A x - B

Explanation:

The force and potential energy are related by the expression

      F = - dU / dx i ^ -dU / dy j ^ - dU / dz k ^

Where i ^, j ^, k ^ are the unit vectors on the x and z axis

The potential they give us is

     U (x) = A x² + B x + C

Let's calculate the derivatives

    dU / dx = A 2x + B + 0

The other derivatives are zero because the potential does not depend on these variables.

Let's calculate the strength

      F = - 2 A x - B

Approximately how many news cases of STIs occur in the United States
galben [10]

<u>Approximately 20 million new cases of STIs occur every year in United</u> <u>States.Half of the new cases occur in young people aged between 15–24. </u>

Though younger people are accountable for nearly half of new cases, a recently taken study showed that last year, only around 12% underwent the test for STIs. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that each year, undiagnosed STIs causes 24,000 women to become infertile.

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are a substantial health challenge which the United States is facing. A very Strong public health awareness and infrastructure is crucial to prevent and control STIs, especially among the younger generation.
