Speed is velocity in a given direction O True O False

Physics
2 answers:
Zarrin [17]3 years ago

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.

1. Spring force is proportional to stretch distance, F=kd. Do you expect doubling the stretch distance double the force?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The spring force is given as:

          F  = kd

F is the spring force

K is the spring constant

d is the magnitude of the stretch

 Since k is a constant, therefore, doubling the stretch distance will double the force.

Both stretch distance and force applied can be said to be directly proportional to one another.

Two students suggest different functions for the battery plays a flashlight.
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Student b

Explanation:

Because, Battery pumps the charges around the circuit. Here, charges are the free electrons. And this charges are already present in the conductor. When we connect this conductor with the battery - It set up an electric field and The diffrence between the potential between the ends of the wire pushes this free charges to move in perticular direction. (This is called electric energy)

This electric energy is converted by chemical reactions in the battery. When the battery is dead - It means that the chemical energy producing chemicals has been consumed. thereafter there will be no more chemical reactions takes place to produce electric energy. Hence we say that the battery is dead.
