Answer:

A. Acceleration always involves changing speed.

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Velocity is a vector quantity and is defined as speed in a given direction. Therefore, when any or both of the components of velocity is changing with time, a body is said to be accelerating i.e. acceleration involves a change of speed or change in direction, or a change in both speed and direction.

Considering the statements:

A. Acceleration always involves changing speed is false because acceleration can occur when speed is constant but direction is changing.

B. Changing direction always involves acceleration is true because, a change in direction results in a change in velocity.

C Changing speed always involves acceleration is true because, changing speed results in a change in velocity.

D. Circular motion always involves acceleration is true because in circular motion the direction is always changing, and this results in a change in velocity

Listed following are three possible models for the long-term expansion (and possible contraction) of the universe in the absence
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

1. Recollapsing universe

2. Critical universe

3. Coasting universe

Explanation:

Recollapsing universe has dark matter density greater than critical density. While critical universe has its matter density equal to the critical sensity. Coasting universe on the other hand has much smaller matter density compared to critical density.

Note that the critical density is approximately 10^-20 grams/cm3

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

86.51° North of West or 273.49°

Explanation:

Let V' = velocity of boat relative to the earth, v = velocity of boat relative to water and V = velocity of water.

Now, by vector addition V' = V + v'.

Since v' = 6.10 m/s in the north direction, v' = (6.10 m/s)j and V = 100 m/s in the east direction, V = (100 m/s)i. So that

V' = V + v'

V' =   (100 m/s)i + (6.10 m/s)j

So, we find the direction,Ф the boat must steer to from the components of V'.

So tanФ = 6.10 m/s ÷ 100 m/s

tanФ = 0.061

Ф = tan⁻¹(0.061) = 3.49°

So, the angle from the north is thus 90° - 3.49° = 86.51° North of West or 270° + 3.49° = 273.49°
