Speed and velocity have the same magnitudes. The only difference is that speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity. In other words, speed is just a magnitude, while velocity is a magnitude with direction. They're essentially the same.

Let's convert miles to meters and minutes to seconds

1/4 mile = 402.34 meters ( 1 mile = 1609 m)
13.1 minutes = 786 seconds (1 minute = 60 seconds)

Speed is calculated as distance over time, thus,

Speed = (402.34 meters)*8/786 seconds
a.) Speed = 4.1 m./s
b.) Velocity = 4.1 m/s

Sound travels about 750 miles per hour. if you stand in a canyon and sound a horn, you will hear an echo. suppose it takes about
diamong [38]
The answer to this question would be:3850ft

To answer this question, you need to convert the speed velocity from miles/hour into feet/second. The equation would be: 750 miles/hour x 5280 foot/mile x 1 hour/3600second = 1100 ft/s
Then multiply the time with the velocity= 3.5 second x 1100 ft/s= 3850ft

The speed of an arrow fired from a compound
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A.) The arrow`s range is 624,996 m

B.) The arrow`s range is 846.887 m, when the horse is galloping

Explanation:

We have a case of oblique movement. In these cases the movement in the X axis is a Uniform Rectelinear Movement (URM), and a Uniform Accelerated Movement (UAM) in the Y axis.

By the way, the equations that we use for the X axis will be from URM, and those for the Y axis wiil be from UAM.

<u>Equations</u>

X axis:

X=v_{ox}*t

v_{0x} =v_0cos(\alpha)

Y axis:

Y= Y_0 +v_{y0} t - \frac{g}{2} t^2

A.) First, it is necessary to know t, total time.

To figure out t value, we use UAM, since time is determined by this movement.

Now, at the end of the movement, Y=0, then

0= Y_0 +v_{y0} t - \frac{g}{2} t^2

0=2.4m+79m/s*sin(39)t-(1/2*9.81m/s^2)t^2

Caculate the segcond degree equation to obtain the two possible values for t:

t_1= 10.18 \\t_2= -0.04046

But, in physics, time it could not be negative, so we take t_1= 10.18

Caculate now:

X=79m/s*cos(\39)*10.18s= 624.996 m

B.) Now, the narrow has an additional speed, that could be sum to the speed due to the bow.

v_0= 79m/s+13m/s= 92m/s

Using the same procedure that item A, caculate X

First, we need to know the new time

0=2.4m+92m/s*sin(39)t-(1/2*9.81m/s^2)t^2

And we obtain:

t_1=11.845s\\t_2=-0.041s

One more time, we take the positive time: t_1=11.845s

Finally:

X=92m/s *cos(39)*11.845s=846.887 m

What is a synovial joint? (ANATOMY)
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

From Wikipedia:

"A synovial joint, also known as diarthrosis, joins bones or cartilage with a fibrous joint capsule that is continuous with the periosteum of the joined bones, constitutes the outer boundary of a synovial cavity, and surrounds the bones' articulating surfaces. The synovial cavity/joint is filled with synovial fluid."
