What is the different betwen distance and valocity?
Distance is a finite quantity of space between two points of reference or object. Velocity is the "speed" at which an object or particle travels along a path.
What object would be necessary to determine the speed of an object?
The distance it travels and how long it took to travel that far. To calculate speed you do (total distance traveled)/(total time taken)
How far an object travels in a certain period of time is?
Relative or apparent motion.
An object travels a given distance at a speed of 5 m s If the object travels the same distance at a higher speed how will the time it takes the object to travel the distance be affected?
It will take less time.
What information would be necessary to determine the speed of an object?
The distance it travels and how long it took to travel that far. To calculate speed you do (total distance traveled)/(total time taken)
An object is in motion only if its distance from a reference point is?
An object is in motion only if its distance from a reference point is changing. The average speed of the object is given by the object's rate of change of displacement from the reference point over time.
Distance an object travels in a certain direction in a certain time?
The velocity of the object.
Distance an object travels per unit of time is?
That's the object's speed.
How far does light travels?
Light travels an infinite distance until it is absorbed by an object.
How does increasing the mass of an object affect the distance the object travels?
In zero gravity, the mass of an object does not effect the distance an object travels at all unless there is a constent force acting upon it. However, if it is in contact with another object, and gravity is what keeps the 2 or more objects touching each other, then mass will effect the distance it travels because of friction.
What The average speed of an object can be calculated by dividing the distance the object travels by the time it takes to move that distance?
True . A+
