Which term best describes how fast and in what direction an object is moving at a particular moment? Question 2 options: acceler

ation average velocity position instantaneous velocity
Physics

kompoz [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Instantaneous velocity

Explanation:

Acceleration = rate of change of velocity

Average velocity = total displacement divided by total time taken

Position = It shows the location of the object

Instantaneous velocity = It is the velocity of an object at a particular instant.

The term that describes how fast and in what direction an object is moving at a particular moment is "instantaneous velocity". It is basically equal to the derivative of position wrt time.

A light wave travels through space at a speed of 3 x 108 m/s. If the wavelength of some light wave is 2 x10-3 m, what is the fre
kifflom [539]

Here is your answer

b) \huge 1.5× {10}^{11} Hz

REASON :

We know that

Velocity= Frequency× Wavelength

So,

Frequency= Velocity/wavelength

Here,

V= 3× 10^8 m/s

Wavelength= 2×10^-3 m

Hence,

Frequency= 3×10^8/2×10^-3

= 3/2 × 10^11

= 1.5× 10^11 Hz

A train travels 120 km in 2 hours and 30 minutes. What is its average speed?
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

13.33 or 13 1/3m/s (meters per second)

Explanation:

In physics, we use the basic units of meters and seconds. So first convert (km) into meters (m) and also hours and minutes into seconds (s). We end up with 120000m and 9000s. Then divide the 120000m by the 9000s and you end up with 13.33 or 13 1/3 m/s.

A tiger travels 3m/s^2 for 4.1s,what was its initial speed if it's final speed was 55k/h?
zaharov [31]
Acceleration a=3m/s^2
time t= 4.1seconds
Final velocity V= 55km/h
initial velocity U= ?
First convert V to m/s
36km/h=10m/s
55km/h= 55*10/36=15.28m/s
Using the formula V= U+at
U= V-at
U= 15.28-3*4.1=15.28-12.3=2.98m/s
Initial velocity U= 2.98m/s or 10.73km/h (Using the conversion rate 36km/h=10m/s)
