Distance between speed and velocity?
Usually, speed just tells you how fast something is moving on average (total distance traveled divided by length of time), but the velocity also includes which direction it is traveling (usually by including the two or three dimensional position it was in when you start the measurement and end it) so we call it a vector.
What is the average speed after three minutes?
Probably over 9000.
If A student measures the speed of a rolling ball three times. She adds the measurements and divides by 3. What quantity did the student calculate?
She obtained the average speed of the three measurements.
What is the average speed if you ran 3 miles 45 minutes?
Three miles in 45 minutes is an average speed of 4 miles per hour or 5.87 feet per second.
What are three components needed to find an object acceleration?
Using the definition of acceleration as change of speed / time, you basically need to know: * A time interval during which the object accelerates. * The velocity at the beginning of this time interval. * The velocity at the end of this time interval.
Emily jogs three laps around the track to warm up she jogs at 5 mph then she runs three more laps at 7 miles per what is true about her average speed and her average velocity?

Is it speed acceleration velocity when a softball is hit into the outfield?
In that case, you have all three - speed, acceleration, velocity.
What is the skydiver's average velocity for the first 3 seconds?
14.715 m/s. This is worked out by knowing that gravity will accelerate a body at 9.81 (m/s)/s. The average velocity is the speed at 3s plus the speed at 0s divided by 2. Speed at 0s = 0 x 9.81 = 0 m/s Speed at 3s = 3 x 9.81 = 29.43 m/s (29.43 + 0) / 2 = 14.715 m/s.
When an object's speed change does its velocity change?
Since speed is the magnitude component of the vector quantity of velocity, of course when speed changes velocity also changes. Speed is a one dimensional scalar quantity. Velocity is a three dimensional vector quantity describing both speed and direction of motion.
What are the three measure related to the study of motion?
distance, speed, and time
How many types of velocity?
Velocity can either increase or decrease. It can do so at either an increasing or decreasing rate (positive or negative acceleration)
What are three ways that an object can be changed by forces?
by direction, speed and velocity i believe
Why it is facts about speed and velocity?
Speed is a scalar quantity that measures how fast an object is moving without specifying its direction, while velocity is a vector quantity that measures both the speed at which an object is moving and its direction. Speed can be positive or zero, while velocity can be positive, negative, or zero. Both speed and velocity are measured in units of distance traveled per unit of time, such as meters per second.
What is the average speed of electricity?
There are three different speeds here.The average speed of electrons - whether there is a current or not - is a significant fraction of the speed of light. That speed depends on the temperature. (The average VELOCITY of course is zero if there is no current, since as many electrons will go in one direction as in another.) The drift velocity (the average velocity) of the electrons is a small fraction of a millimeter per second. The exact value depends on the current, the cross section, and the material. The speed at which a signal can propagate in copper is about 2/3 of the speed of light in a vacuum - so, about 200,000 km/second. It is this speed that makes your light react quickly when you activate a switch.
Distance between speed and velocity?
Usually, speed just tells you how fast something is moving on average (total distance traveled divided by length of time), but the velocity also includes which direction it is traveling (usually by including the two or three dimensional position it was in when you start the measurement and end it) so we call it a vector.
Can a particle in one dimensional with zero speed may have non zero velocity?
No, a particle in one dimension with zero speed will have zero velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both the speed and direction of motion, so if the speed is zero, the velocity will also be zero since there is no direction of motion.
What three things do you need to now to describe the velocity of an object?
To describe the velocity of an object, you need to know its speed (magnitude of velocity), direction of motion, and reference point for measuring the motion.
