which statements about velocity are true? check all that apply. a. for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction
satela [25.4K]
a). for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction.
Yes.  This one isn't bad.  The 'number' and the 'unit' are the speed.

b). the si units for velocity are miles per hour.
No.  That's silly. 
'miles' is not an SI unit, and 'miles per hour'
is only a speed, not a velocity. 

c). the symbol for velocity is .
You can use any symbol you want for velocity, as long as
you make its meaning very clear, so that everybody knows
what symbol you're using for velocity.
But this choice-c is still wrong, because either it's incomplete,
or else it's using 'space' for velocity, which is a very poor symbol.

d). to calculate velocity, divide the displacement by time.
Yes, that's OK, but you have to remember that the displacement
has a direction, and so does the velocity.

Measurements of acceleration are given in units of ?
Lady_Fox [76]
Meters per second squared: \frac{m}{s^{2}}

If you think about it, acceleration is about how fast speed changes. Speed is measured in meters per second: \frac{m}{s}

So if you take that and just measure it over time, you get meters per second squared.

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

t= 1.2 hours

Explanation:

Define first di distance between the points, so

\bar{x}_{canoe}=2*(2+3)=10

\bar{x}_{water}=2*2=4

The distance is

d= \bar{x}_{canoe}- \bar{x}_{water}

d= 10-4 = 6miles

t = \frac{x}{v} = \frac{6}{2+3}

t= 1.2 hours
