Speed does not include a direction, but velocity does.

       30 miles per hour north
and
       30 miles per hour west

Same speed.
Different velocity.

A race-car drives around a circular track of radius RRR. The race-car speeds around its first lap at linear speed v_iv i ​ v, st
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration increases by 16 times when the linear speed increases by 4 times.

Explanation:

The initial centripetal acceleration, a of the race-car around the circular track of radius , R with a linear speed v is a = v²/R.

When the linear speed of the race-car increases to v' = 4v, the centripetal acceleration a' becomes a' = v'²/R = (4v)²/R = 16v²/R.

So the centripetal acceleration, a' = 16v²/R.

To know how much the magnitude of the car's centripetal acceleration changes, we take the ratio a'/a = 16v²/R ÷ v²/R = 16

a'/a = 16

a' = 16a.

So the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration increases by 16 times when the linear speed increases by 4 times.

For a converging lens, a ray arriving parallel to the optic axis
mixer [17]

Answer:

b. passes through the principal focal point.

Explanation:

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

A lens can be defined as a transparent optical instrument that refracts rays of light to produce a real image.

Basically, there are two (2) main types of lens and these includes;

I. Diverging (concave) lens.

II. Converging (convex) lens.

A converging lens refers to a type of lens that typically causes parallel rays of light with respect to its principal axis to come to a focus (converge) and form a real image. This type of lens is usually thin at the lower and upper edges and thick across the middle.

For a converging lens, a ray arriving parallel to the optic axis passes through the principal focal point.

What is one way to take advantage of creating even more kinetic energy on this particular technologically advanced field
ch4aika [34]

Incomplete question. However, I provided a brief about Kinetic energy generation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Interestingly, Kinetic energy in simple terms refers to the energy possessed by a body in motion.

It is often calculated using the formula E =  \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

A good example of creating even more kinetic energy is a hand crank toy car that moves after you wind it a little, when the car moves it is generating another measure of K.E.
