You are in a car going 70 km per hour and another car passes you going in the opposite direction at 70 km per hour Do both cars have the same velocity Explain?

No. Since velocity is a vector, the direction of the magnitude (speed) is also relevent. First which car is moving in a positive direction (either is correct) --- v = +70 km/h. Since the other car is moving in the opposite direction, its velocity is -70 km/h.


You are in a car going 70 km h and another car passes you going in the opposite direction at 70 km h Do both cars have the same velocity Explain?

You already answered the question. Both cars are traveling at 70kmph, which is the same velocity.


The speedometer of a car moving to the east reads 100km per hr and it passes another car that moves to the west at 100km per hr so do both cars have the same velocity please explain?

Velocity is direction and speed so the vehicle do not have the same velocity


When speed passes from one medium wave to another what happens?

it changes in velocity


Which force pushes against a moving object as it passes through air?

When an object is moving in a particular direction, air resistance will be acting on the object in the opposite direction to the direction of travel.


When a wave passes from a less dense medium to a more dense medium what might change?

When light passes from one material to another you may observe?

You observe the light falling from another direction


How are sound waves are affected by their frequency and the medium through which the sound wave passes?

The wavelength is equal to the local velocity of sound divided by the frequency, As with light, there can be refraction when sound passes from one medium to another with a different sound velocity.


What is it called when a wave changes direction as it passes from one substance into another at an angle?

What is mathematical refraction?

Mathematical refraction is when we use the mathematical formula to calculate the velocity of light as it passes from one medium to another.
