Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

 Velocity of a body = Displacement of the body/Time taken

Displacement and velocity are a vector. Both have direction and magnitude.

Displacement is generally distance with direction.

If we divide distance with time taken we will get speed of the airplane. Speed with direction is called velocity. So we need distance between Houston and Dallas, time taken by plane to travel from Houston to Dallas and direction of displacement from Houston to Dallas.

So we need direction.

Option B is the correct answer.

If a ball is given a push so that it has an initial velocity of 5 m/s down a certain inclined plane, then the distance it has ro
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

v= 13 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the derivative of displacement with respect to time

v= ds/dt

Known data

s(t) = 5t + 2t²  : distance that the ball has rolled after t seconds

vi= 5 m/s : initial velocity

t= 2 s

Problem develoment

s(t) = 5t + 2t²

v= ds/dt= 5 + 4t : velocity of the ball in function of the time

We replace t =2 s in the equation of velocity

v= 5 + 4(2)

v= 13 m/s : velocity after 2 seconds

How does the loneliest whale relate to physics/waves.
Lelechka [254]
Answer: the loneliest whale relates to the communication that whales give to each other

Explanation: whales have different forms of communication , and the ‘loneliest’ whale can’t get any company by the other whales.


In other words: it may be a new and different way whales communicate, nobody knows much about the loneliest whale. It may be forming a new kind of communication
