The speed and direction of an object's motion is its?

Physics
1 answer:
GalinKa [24]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Speed and direction of motion is velocity. ... A change in speed is a change in velocity – so, a change in speed is an example of acceleration!

Measure

Remember that velocity includes the speed and direction of an object. Therefore, a change in velocity can be either a change in how fast something is moving or a change in the direction it is moving.

A 40kg rock is perched atop a cliff that is 50 m high. What is it’s potential energy?
LekaFEV [45]
Potential energy, is energy due to its position.

Given: Mass m = 40 Kg;  Height h = 50 m

Required: Potential energy P.E = ?

Formula:  P.E = mgh   P.E = (40 Kg)(9.8 m/s²)(50 m)

                P.E = 19,600 J

How would you find kinetic energy?
Flura [38]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object and to the square of its velocity: K.E. = 1/2 m v2. If the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.

Which of the following are possible causes of mass extinctions that scientists have identified
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

over harvesting, pollution, introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors

Explanation:

The main cause of mass extinction is Humans cause extinction of a species through overharvesting. The second main  cause is pollution ., introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors, habitat destruction, overhunting and other influences. Another very important cause of mass extinction is the unsustainable human population growth.

The five mass extinction events are

Ordovician Mass Extinction

Devonian Mass Extinction

 Permian Mass Extinction

Triassic -Jurassic Mass Extinction

and Cretaceous -Tertiary (or the K-T) Mass Extinction.
