Speed uses distance and velocity uses displacement in its calculation.
For 100 m race, distance = displacement. Hence speed = velocity
For 400m race, distance ≠ displacement. distance = 400m whereas displacement = 0m. Hence speed ≠ velocity
Hey there! My name is Christy and I'm gladly to help you out!
The three main forces that stop moving objects are friction, gravity and wind resistance. Equal forces acting inopposite directions are called balanced forces. Balanced forcesacting on an object will not change the object's motion. When you add equal forces in opposite direction, the netforce is zero.
Hope this helped!
No, the car travels 1 metre in 5s at the start which is 0.2m/s, while the second meter it travels one metre in 8 seconds which is 0.125 m/s, the speed changes therefore it is not constant during the two metres the car travels
