I'm guessing that the word 'and' refers to addition, so

twice a quarter = 2 * (1/4) = 2/4 = 1/2

quarter doubled is the same = 1/2

so 1/2 + 1/2 = 1 (the first part of the question)

2nd part:

half a half = (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4

half halved = (1/2)/2 = 1/4

so 1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2

so the first part 'twice a quarter and a quarter doubled'is greater, because 1 > (1/2)

What happens if the distance is doubled or halved?

Why is it wrong to say that 50c helium is twice as hot as 25c helium?

Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance, not its concentration or quantity. Saying that 50°C helium is twice as hot as 25°C helium is incorrect because temperature is not a quantity that can be doubled or halved in that manner.


What happens to the speed of a moving object when it is doubled?

Acceleration is doubled. F = ma, where m is mass and a is acceleration. If mass is halved, acceleration is changed by a related quantity, X in this equation. F = (1/2m)(Xa) The coefficients before mass and accelerations have to equal 1 if force stays the same, so... 1/2*X=1 X = 2 therefore, acceleration is doubled.
