What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Physics
1 answer:
Wittaler [7]3 years ago

It’s C) because we know that velocity is a vector quantity with direction and speed is only quantity. For example, velocity could be 5 m/s to the east but speed would only be 5 m/s

Final speed after collision with the wall

v_f = -0.4 m/s

before collision the speed of ball initially

v_i = 0.6 m/s

time taken for the collision

\Delta t = 0.2 s

now as per the formula of acceleration we know that

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}

now plug in all values in it

a = \frac{-0.4 - 0.6}{0.2}

a = -5.0 m/s^2

so acceleration is - 5 m/s/s for above situation

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

330 m/s

Explanation:

The sound wave has to travel TO the cliff AND back = 2 * 49.5 = 99 m

magnitude of velocity =  distance / time = 99m / .3 s = 330 m/s

What was the name of charles lindbergh’s single winged airplane for his solo flight across the atlantic?
aev [14]

Answer:

Spirit of St. Louis

Explanation:

Charles Lindbergh was known as a prolific aviator during the early twentieth century. He is well known for the flight he took from Long Island, New York, to Paris, France. It was a continuous flight across the Atlantic Ocean.

The plane he used was the Spirit of St. Louis which took more than 33 hours to complete the journey. It was the first successful flight of this kind. The airplane flew from Long Island on May 20 and landed in Paris on May 21.

Suppose you read in the newspaper that a new planet has been found. Its average speed in its orbit is 33 kilometers per second (
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

E. Kepler's second law says the planet must move fastest when it is closest, not  when it is farthest away.

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Kepler's second law of planetary motion, which states that:

"A line connecting the center of the Sun with the center of each planet sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time"

This means that when a planet is further away from the Sun, it will move slower (because the line is longer, so it must move slower), while when the planet is closer to the Sun, it will move faster (because the line is shorter, so it must move faster).

In the text of this problem, it is written that the planet moves at 31 km/s when is close to the star and 35 km/s when it is farthest: this is in disagreement with what we said above, therefore the correct option is

E. Kepler's second law says the planet must move fastest when it is closest, not  when it is farthest away.
