Speed with direction unit M/S, in a direction

Physics
1 answer:

Answer:

Speed is a scalar quantity and does not keep track of direction; velocity is a vector quantity and is direction aware.

Explanation:

I hope this helps you!

Which explains the information needed to calculate speed and velocity?
Anestetic [448]

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.

Explanation:

Speed and velocity are two different quantities. In fact:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which gives a measure of how fast an object is moving, regardless of its direction. Therefore, it only has a magnitude, which is given by the ratio between distance covered and time taken:

s=\frac{distance}{time}

Therefore, speed does not take into account the direction of motion.

- Velocity, on the other hand, is a vector quantity, so it has magnitude and a direction.

The magnitude of the velocity is given by

v=\frac{displacement}{time}

where displacement is a vector connecting the initial point with the final point of motion of an object.

The direction of the velocity corresponds to the direction of the displacement.

It must be noted also that in certain situations, the average velocity is zero, while the speed is not zero: for example, for an object completing a circle in a certain time interval, its speed is not zero, while its velocity is zero (because the object returns to the starting point, so the displacement is zero.

Therefore, the correct answer is

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance.

How does inertia affect a person who is not wearing a seatbelt during a collision?
ELEN [110]

A person who is not wearing a seatbelt during a collision will be thrown forward because it maintains forward motion

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

In Newton's law, it is stated that if the resultant force acting on an object of magnitude is zero,  it can be formulated :

\large{\boxed{\bold{\Sigma F = 0}}}

then the object tends to defend itself from its state. So for objects in a state of movement, objects tend to move forever. Likewise, for objects in a state of rest, they tend to remain forever. The tendency of objects like this is called<em> inertia </em>

The size of inertia is proportional to mass, the greater the mass of the object, the greater the inertia of the object.

In objects with mass m that move translatively, the object will maintain its linear velocity

When we are in a vehicle that moves forward, then we will still maintain a state of forwarding motion. If our vehicle stops suddenly, then we keep moving forward so we will be pushed forward. From this point, the use of a safety belt serves to hold back our movements so that there are no fatal accidents or collisions.

In a collision between two unequal masses, which mass receives a greater magnitude impulse?
Contact [7]
<span>The answer to this question depends upon Newton's third law of motion. For every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction. Because of this law, during the collision between two unequal masses, the impulse that each mass receives will be of equal magnitude and and opposite sign.</span>
