Answer:

Distance-           The length along a path between two points .

Velocity-            The rate and direction at which an object moves .

Displacement-  The net change in position of an object .

Vector-               A measurement that has both magnitude and direction .

Speed-               Measure of the rate at which an object changes position .

Momentum-      The mass of an object multiplied by its velocity.

Explanation:

Vector: A physical quantity having both magnitude and direction is called Vector quantity. Example: Displacement, Velocity, Acceleration, Force etc.

On the other hand , quantity having only magnitude is called Scalar. Example: Distance, Speed, Time, Current etc.

Distance: The totle length of path traversed by a body in certain time is called distance. It is scalar quantity as it has only magnitude. SI unit of distance is meter.

Displacement: It is defined as change in position of a body in given period of time. Actually it is the distance between initial and final position along with given direction. So it is vector quantity. SI unit is meter.

Speed: The rate at which distance is traveled with respect to time is called speed.It is scalar quantity. SI unit is meter/second.

                                    Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

Velocity: It can be defined as rate of change in position or displacement with respect to time.It is vector quantity. SI unit is meter/second.

                                    Velocity=\frac{Displacement}{Time}

Momentum: The amount of motion contain in a body is the momentum. It is defined as product of mass and velocity. It is vector quantity. SI unit is kg.meter/second

                                    Momentum=Mass×Velocity

Suppose you push a hockey puck of mass m across frictionless ice for a time \Delta t, starting from rest, giving thepuck speed v
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1. t_2 = 2t_1

2. t_2 = t_1\sqrt{2}

Explanation:

1. According to Newton's law of motion, the puck motion is affected by the acceleration, which is generated by the push force F.

In Newton's 2nd law: F = ma

where m is the mass of the object and a is the resulted acceleration. So in the 2nd experiment, if we double the mass, a would be reduced by half.

a_1 = 2a_2

Since the puck start from rest, in the 1st experiment, to achieve speed of v it would take t time

t = v / a_1

Now that acceleration is halved:

t = \frac{v}{2a_2}

\frac{v}{a_2} = 2t

You would need to push for twice amount of time t_2 = 2t_1

2. The distance traveled by the puck is as the following equation:

d = at^2

So if the acceleration is halved while maintaining the same d:

\frac{d_1}{d_2} = \frac{a_1t_1^2/2}{a_2t_2^2/2}

As d_1 = d_2, then d_1/d_2 = 1. Also a_1 = 2a_2

1 = \frac{2a_2t_1^2}{a_2t_2^2}

t_2^2 = 2t_1^2

t_2 = t_1\sqrt{2}\approx 1.14t_1

So t increased by 1.14
