How fast a car goes is known as its speed.

Speed = (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance)

It has nothing to do with the direction the car is going.
______________________________________

The car's velocity is its speed AND the direction it's going.

30 miles per hour . . . speed

40 miles per hour north . . . velocity

20 miles per hour south
20 miles per hour west . . . . . same speed, different velocity

-- 'Velocity' is NOT a big word that you use when you mean
'speed' but you want to sound smarter.  It's a different thing.

-- If you don't know anything about the direction the car is going,
then you can't say anything about its velocity.

-- If the car is going around a curve, then its velocity is constantly
changing, even if its speed is constant.

A 0.10-kg cart traveling in the positive x direction at 10.0 m/s collides with a 0.30-kg cart at rest. the collision is elastic.
yuradex [85]
By definition for an elastic shock, we have that if the second particle is at rest, then the final velocity of the first particle will be given by vf1 = ((m1-m2) * vi1) / (m1 + m2). Then, substituting the values: vf1 = ((0.1-0.3) * 10) / (0.1 + 0.4) = - 5m / s.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

30 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

v = u+at................ Equation 1

Where v = final speed of the ball, u = initial speed of the ball, a = acceleration, t = time.

From the question,

Given: u = 0 m/s (stationary), a = 600 m/s², t = 0.05 s

Substitute these values into equation 5

v = 0+(600×0.05)

v = 30 m/s

Hence the speed at which the ball leaves the player's boot is 30 m/s
