What else can I help you with?
Does average velocity and average speed have the same number?
velocity is a vector and speed is scalar. Velocity has magnitude and directions, with magnitude being speed. The magnitude of average velocity and average speed is the same.
What happens if an object covers equal distances in equal periods of time?
Then you can say that the object's speed and the magnitude of its velocity are constant, and the magnitude of its acceleration is zero.
How is velocity diffrent from speed?
Velocity is a vector, and so it has two components -- magnitude (speed) and direction. Speed is a scalar, and it is the magnitude of velocity, a vector.
Are speed and acceleration the same?
No. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and acceleration is the change of velocity in time.
A velocity vector tells you two things?
Speed (which is a magnitude), and the direction.Speed (which is a magnitude), and the direction.Speed (which is a magnitude), and the direction.Speed (which is a magnitude), and the direction.
When is speed equal to the magnitude of velocity?
Speed is equal to the magnitude of velocity when the object is moving in a straight line without changing direction. In other words, if the velocity vector is pointing in the same direction as the motion of the object, then the speed will be equal to the magnitude of the velocity.
The slope of a position vstime graph is equal to?
speed (magnitude of velocity)
Is the magnitude of instantaneous velocity always equal to the instantaneous speed?
Because speed is the magnitude of the velocity vector. The velocity consists of the speed and the direction, and the whole thing can be embodied in a 3D vector. If you like the velocity is the magnitude (the speed), which is a scalar (just a real number), multiplied by a unit vector in the right direction.
When do the velocity and speed of a moving body become equal?
The velocity and speed of a moving body become equal when the motion is along a straight line with no change in direction. In such cases, the velocity and speed have the same magnitude.
How is speed difrent from velocity?
Velocity has magnitude and direction and speed only has magnitude.
Does average velocity and average speed have the same number?
velocity is a vector and speed is scalar. Velocity has magnitude and directions, with magnitude being speed. The magnitude of average velocity and average speed is the same.
How is acceleration similar to speed and velocity?
Acceleration, speed, and velocity are all related to an object's motion. Acceleration measures the change in velocity over time, while speed simply measures how fast an object is moving without regard to direction. Velocity, on the other hand, includes information about both the speed and direction of motion.
What happens if an object covers equal distances in equal periods of time?
Then you can say that the object's speed and the magnitude of its velocity are constant, and the magnitude of its acceleration is zero.
How is velocity diffrent from speed?
Velocity is a vector, and so it has two components -- magnitude (speed) and direction. Speed is a scalar, and it is the magnitude of velocity, a vector.
Why is the absolute value of speed equal to velocity?
It's not. Unless you add a direction to speed it will not become velocity. Since positive and negative are sometimes used to denote direction, absolute value of velocity may equal speed (certain situations)
Can your speed and velocity ever have the same magnitude?
Speed and velocity always have the same magnitude, becausespeed is the magnitude of velocity.The difference is that velocity has a direction but speed doesn't
Is numerical ratio of average velocity to average speed always equal?
No, the numerical ratio of average velocity to average speed is not always equal. Average velocity is a vector quantity that includes both magnitude and direction, while average speed is a scalar quantity that only considers magnitude. The ratio will be equal only when the object moves in a straight line.
