Displacement can be positive OR negative. The sign implies the direction of the displacement. Negative means that is is moving to the left (sometimes called West) or down (sometimes called South); positive means that is moving to the right (sometimes called East) or up (sometimes called North).

Answer:

1. Displacement can be positive OR negative. The sign implies the direction of the displacement. 2. In one dimension the direction is indicated by the sign: negative if to the left and positive if to the right.

Do radio waves travel at the speed of sound
adell [148]

Sound travels at approximately 1,100 feet per second (766 miles per hour). Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 186,000 miles per second. This means that in the time radio waves travel the length of a football field, light can travel further than all the way around the world.

Everything on this page is solved with the SAME formula !

             Distance = (speed) x (time) .


Before I get into how to solve each problem, we need to notice that
this whole sheet deals with speed, NOT velocity.

'Velocity' is speed AND THE DIRECTION OF THE  MOTION.
Nothing on this page ever mentions direction, so there's no velocity
anywhere on the page.

Your teacher may not be happy if you talk about this on your homework,
but that's too bad.  Just don't say "velocity" in any of your answers.
Say "speed", and if the teacher complains about that, then it's time to
let the teacher have it with both barrels.
 

1).  Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

2).  Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

3).  Distance  =  (average speed of travel) x (time traveling at that speed)

4).  Time to cover the distance = (distance) / (speed)

5).  Car's     speed = (distance the car covered)        / (time the car took)
      Sprinter speed = (distance the sprinter covered) / (time the sprinter took)

      Calculate the car's speed.
      Calculate the sprinter's speed.
     
      ... Look at the two speeds.
          Decide which one is faster.
     
      ... Subtract the slower one from the faster one. 
          The difference is the answer to "by how much?" .

6).  Distance  =  (speed) x (time spent moving at that speed)

7).  Average speed  =  (TOTAL distance covered)
                                      divided by
                                    (time to cover the TOTAL distance).
