What else can I help you with?
What does velocity include that makes it different than speed?
direction
Is velocity for waves different than speed?
No, velocity refers to the speed of an object in a specific direction. In the context of waves, velocity is the speed at which a wave moves through a medium in a particular direction. So, in the case of waves, velocity and speed refer to the same concept.
How is velocity different than speed and what are the key distinctions between the two?
Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction, while speed is a scalar quantity that only measures how fast an object is moving. The key distinction between velocity and speed is that velocity includes direction, while speed does not.
Can a particle in one dimensional motion have less speed than velocity?
Speed and velocity cannot be compared because they are different things. It is like saying "apples > oranges". Velocity is a vector and, as such, it has a direction and a size. The size of the vector velocity is it's speed.To answer your question: no because they can't be compared. And if you wanted to ask if the size of the velocity vector being smaller than the speed... no... that is the definition of speed... so it cannot be different, regardless of the number of dimensions you are using.
What is the rate of change in position or rate of motion?
Velocity, which is different than speed in that it has a directional component to it.
What is the rate of motion or the rate of change in position?
Velocity, which is different than speed in that it has a directional component to it.
What the rate of change in position or rate of motion?
Velocity, which is different than speed in that it has a directional component to it.
What is the rate of change position or rate of motion?
Velocity, which is different than speed in that it has a directional component to it.
If the final velocity will be less than initial velocity the object is increasing speed or decreasing speed?
If the final velocity is less than the initial velocity, the object is decreasing speed. The object has slowed down or its speed has decreased compared to when it started.
When acceleration is less than 0 and velocity is less than 0 then speed is?
When acceleration is less than 0 and velocity is less than 0, the speed is positive. Speed is the absolute value of velocity, so it is always positive regardless of the direction of motion.
Why we does not use speed instead of velocity?
When the direction of motion is relevant, you would use velocity rather than speed.
Can an items velocity ever be greater than it's speed?
The velocity of an object cannot ever be greater than its speed as the two are directly linked. Velocity is very similar to speed except that it also takes direction into consideration.
