Answer: a vector quantity.

Acceleration is a vector quantity.

Explanation: In physics, acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. The length of the vector is its magnitude. So the magnitude tells you, how quickly velocity changes. If an object has a negative acceleration, the acceleration occurs in the opposite direction to the movement of the object. Newton's second law says that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net result of all forces acting on the object and inversely proportional to its mass. The mass is a constant of each object that indicates how the velocity of the object varies with the application of force.

Answer:

v = 1 m/s

Explanation:

from the principle of conservation of momentum, we have following relation

initial momentum = final momentum

$m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2} = (m_{1}+m_{2})v^{2}$

where

m1 = 1.14 kg

v1 = 2.0 m/s

m2 = 1.14 kg

v2 = 0 m/s

putting all value in the above equation

$1.14 *2.0+ 0 =(1.14+1.14)v^{2}$

$v =\frac{1.14*2.0}{1.14+1.14}$

v = 1 m/s

Answer:

Speed of light

Explanation:

The famous Einstein's equation is:

$E=mc^2$

where

E is the energy

m is the mass

$c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

In this equation, Einstein summarized the following fact: mass can be converted into energy, and the amount of energy released in such a process is given by the equation.

An example of application of this equation is the nuclear fusion process. In a nuclear fusion, two lighter nuclei combine into a heavier nucleus. However, the mass of the heavier nucleus is slightly less than the sum of the masses of the two original nuclei: some of the mass of the original nuclei has been converted into energy, accorging to the previous equation.
