Let t1 and t2 be the times for the two stages.
Then t1 = x/v1
and t2 = x/v2
Total distance = x + x = 2x
Total time = t1 + t2 = x/v1 + x/v2 = x*(1/v1 + 1/v2)
Average velocity = total distance / total time
= 2x divided by x/(1/v1 + 1/v2)
= 2(1/v1 + 1/v2) which is the Harmonic mean of v1 and v2.
Average velocity is def.ined as the ratio of total displacement to total time taken.
The area between the graph and the x-axis is the distance moved. If the velocity is constant the v vs t graph is a straight horizontal line. The shape of the area under the graph is a rectangle. For constant velocity, distance = V * time. Time is the x-axis and velocity is the y-axis. If the object is accelerating, the velocity is increasing at a constant rate. The graph is a line whose slope equals the acceleration. The shape of the graph is a triangle. The area under the graph is ½ * base * height. The base is time, and the height is the velocity. If the initial velocity is 0, the average velocity is final velocity ÷ 2. Distance = average velocity * time. Distance = (final velocity ÷ 2) * time, time is on the x-axis, and velocity is on the y-axis. (final velocity ÷ 2) * time = ½ time * final velocity ...½ base * height = ½ time * final velocity Area under graph = distance moved Most velocity graphs are horizontal lines or sloping lines.
Police measur speed with a radar gun. It uses the Doppler effect to find speed. You can measure distance traveled and use a stopwatch to measure speed yourself. You asked about velocity, however. Velocity is the combination of speed and direction. To measure velocity, you have to track the direction of travel. For that, either a compass, a chart or some other measure.
The product of velocity and time yields distance travelled if the velocity is constant for the time in question. If velocity is not constant, one must first calculate the average velocity over a given time period before multiplying it by the time involved.
What distance does it move vertically? Throw a ball straight up. Gravity will slow it down at the rate of 9.8 m/s each second. Example A ball is thrown up at a velocity of 49 m/s. Due to gravity it will slow down at the rate of 9.8 m/s each second. After 5 seconds the ball will stop, it is at its highest point; the velocity is 0 m/s. The initial velocity was 49 m/s; the final velocity is 0m/s.The average velocity is 24.5 m/s. Distance = Average velocity * time Distance = 24.5 m/s * 5 seconds = 122.5 m Here are the physics equations I used!! Acceleration due to gravity = g = -9.8m/s each second = -9.8m/s^2 (negative because gravitational force pulls down toward the center of the Earth!! Vfinal = Vinitial + (acceleration * time) 0 m/s = 49m/s+ (-9.8m/s^2 * time) -9.8 t = - 49m/s t = 5 seconds Average velocity = (49m/s + 0) ÷ 2 Average velocity = 24.5 m/s Distance = Average Velocity * time. Distance = 24.5 m/s * 5 seconds Distance = 122.5 m
Average velocity is def.ined as the ratio of total displacement to total time taken.
The average speed of an object is defined as the distance traveled divided by the time elapsed. Velocity is a vector quantity, and average velocity can be defined as the displacement divided by the time. For the special case of straight line motion in the x direction, the average velocity takes the form:
Velocity (or speed) = Distance ÷ Time In this example, speed = 300/6 = 50 kph
No. Average speed is.
Velocity x time = distance
the two types of velocity are distance and traveling time. although they may seem a little suspicious now you can even log on to my website at:http:/www.velocityandjunk.com/discussvelocity_and_matter/inc.
No. Average velocity is still a velocity.Distance is a product of (a velocity or speed) times (a length of time).
no its a vector quantity,not a scalar quantity,bcz still it z a velocity bt NT a speed On a typical journey the average velocity is the straight-line distance between the start and finish, divided by the time taken, and it also has a direction. The average speed is the actual distance run, divided by the speed. The average speed might not be equal to the magnitude of the average velocity. For example on a round trip the average speed might be 40 mph, while the average velocity is zero.
Average velocity equals the average speed if (and only if) the motion is in the same direction. If not, the average speed, being the average of the absolute value of the velocity, will be larger.
1. magnitude of distance covered is equal to the magnitude of displacement. 2. the motion of the object is in a straight line i.e. in a particular direction.
total velocity * * * * * It is the average speed, not velocity which is a vector.
