What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Physics
1 answer:
avanturin [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

speed is the rate of change in distance thus it is scalar physical quantity

while velocity is the rate of change in displacement thus it is a vector physical quantity

Explanation:

vector physical quantity: is a quantity that requires both magnitude and direction to identify

scalar quantity: requires only magnitude to identify.

Explain how the fountain pen is filled up with ink​
Leno4ka [110]

Answer: A piston-filling fountain pen has a piston — just like in a car — inside the barrel. This piston goes down to expel air or ink and then back up, pulling ink into the barrel. The typical process is very simple, assuming the pen is clean and dry: Push the piston down, expelling any air in the barrel

Study the position-time graph for a bicycle. Which statement is supported by the graph? Position vs Time O The bicycle has speed
lesantik [10]

Answer:

D) The bicycle is not in motion.

Explanation:

Study the position-time graph for a bicycle.

Which statement is supported by the graph?

A) The bicycle has speed but not velocity.

B) The bicycle is moving at a constant velocity.

C) The bicycle has a displacement of 3 m.

D) The bicycle is not in motion.

Solution:

Velocity is the time rate of change of displacement. It is the ratio of displacement to time taken.

Speed is the time rate of change of distance. It is the ratio of distance to time taken.

From the position-time graph, we can see that the bicycle has a constant positon of 3 m for the whole of the time. That is the position remains 3 m even as the time changes. Therefore, we can conclude that the bicycle is not in motion.
