A slinky is stretched across a classroom to 9 meters. A compression travels along the slinky at a velocity of 2
m
s
. How long does it take to travel the entire 9m length of the classroom?
Positive acceleration.
666.67 seconds
a high speed train travels south for 2.00 h for a distance of 454km. what is its average velocity?
The acceleration of an object that travels in a constant straight line velocity is zero.
50 km/hr
You mean, travels at 10000 m/s.....if so...Its velocity is 10000m/s
Velocity measures both speed and direction that an object travels. The magnitude of velocity represents the speed of the object, while the direction of velocity indicates the direction in which the object is moving.
How quickly the wave travels
The speed at which a wave travels is called its velocity. This velocity is typically determined by the frequency and wavelength of the wave.
Positive acceleration.
When a golf ball is hit, its momentum is mostly due to the velocity and mass of the ball. The velocity of the ball at impact, along with its mass, determine the overall momentum of the ball as it travels.
5m/s
No, light travels in electromagnetic waves, not compression waves. Compression waves are associated with sound waves, where particles are compressed and expanded as the wave passes through a medium. In contrast, electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel and propagate through oscillating electric and magnetic fields.
Light travels at its maximum velocity c in a vacuum. In a medium with a certain refractive index, it is slowed down and travels with velocity c/index
Sound energy travels in a compression wave, where particles are pushed together to create areas of high pressure and rarefaction as they move through a medium.
The velocity of the car is 32 mph
Compression waves (same as for solids & liquids).
