The formula for speed is speed = distance ÷ time.

Speed (or rate, r) is a scalar quantity that measures the distance traveled (d) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation r = d/Δt.

Who came up with the theory of relativity?

liberstina [14]

Albert Einstein, in his theory of special relativity, determined that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and he showed that the speed of light within a vacuum is the same no matter the speed at which an observer travels

The strength of the electric field at a certain distance from a point charge is represented by E. What is the strength of the el

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

e.)At twice the distance, the strength of the field is E/4.

Explanation:

The strength of the electric field at a certain distance from a point charge is given by:

$E=k\frac{Q}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

Q is the charge

r is the distance from the point charge

In this problem, the distance from the point charge is doubled:

r' = 2r

So the new electric field strength is

$E'=k\frac{Q}{(2r)^2}=k \frac{Q}{4 r^2}=\frac{1}{4} (k\frac{Q}{r^2})=\frac{E}{4}$

so, at twice the distance the strength of the field is E/4.

5. What is the velocity of a Nolan Catholic football player if he runs 200.0 m in 24.0 s?

Degger [83]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed {\sf{8.33 \: m \:/s \: }}}}}$

Explanation:

Distance travelled = 200 metre

Time taken = 24 second

Velocity = ?

Finding the velocity 

$\boxed{ \sf{velocity = \frac{distance \: travelled \: }{time \: taken}}}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{velocity = \frac{200 \: m}{24 \: s} }}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{velocity = 8.33 \: m/s}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards!

A stone is dropped from a cliff. What will be its speed when it was fallen 100 m?

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

final velocity will be44.72m/s

Explanation:

HEIGHT=h=100m

vi=0m/s

vf=?

g=10m/s²

by using third equation of motion for bodies under gravity

2gh=(vf)²-(vi)²

evaluating the formula

2(10m/s²)(100m)=vf²-(0m/s)²

2000m²/s²=vf²

√2000m²/s²=√vf²

44.72m/s=vf
