Velocity stands for Displacement w.r.t time

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Velocity=\dfrac{Displacement}{Time}

Or

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto v=\dfrac{ds}{dt}

\pmb{\large{Velocity} }

  • The meaning of velocity of an object can be defined as the rate of change of the object’s position with respect to a frame of reference and time.

  • It might sound complicated but velocity is basically speeding in a specific direction.

  • It is a vector quantity, which means we need both magnitude (speed) and direction to define velocity.

  • The SI unit of it is meter per second (ms-1).

A distant galaxy is determined to be 150 million light years distant and moving away from us; using the Hubble law determine its
dlinn [17]

Your question kind of petered out there towards the end and you didn't specify
the terms, so I'll pick my own.

The "Hubble Constant" hasn't yet been pinned down precisely, so let's pick a
round number that's in the neighborhood of the last 20 years of measurements:

             <em>70 km per second per megaparsec</em>.

We'll also need to know that 1 parsec = about 3.262 light years.

So the speed of your receding galaxy is

         (Distance in LY) x (1 megaparsec / 3,262,000 LY) x (70 km/sec-mpsc) =

              (150 million) x  (1 / 3,262,000) x (70 km/sec) =

                                 <em>3,219 km/sec  </em>in the direction away from us (rounded)

In 2-3 complete sentences, explain why the needle on a compass always points in the direction of magnetic north.
Alex17521 [72]
The needle on a compass always points in the direction of magnetic north because of the magnetic poles of earth. the compass is essentially a magnet itself, so the southern pole of the compass is attracted to the northern pole of earth.

A beetle crawling around on a desk walks 19 cm in 17 seconds to the right. It then changes direction and walks 6 cm in 6 seconds
Andre45 [30]

Answer: 11.5secs

Explanation:

They said what the average speed is so to find the average you have to find the mean so 17secs + 6secs = 23secs / 2 = 11.5secs.
