If a freely falling object was equiped with a speedometer its speed reading would increase how?

If a freely falling object was equipped with a speedometer (which was somehow referenced to the surface of the earth), the speed reading would increase smoothly and steadilyfrom the point that it was dropped until it reaches terminal velocity. The force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the 2 objects and directly proportional to their masses.Neglecting air resistance, the object will begin to fall and accelerate at a rate of approximately 9.8 m/s^2 and will continue accelerating until it hits the ground. Taking air resistance into account, an object will begin to accelerate until the force of drag equals the acceleration, at which point it will continue to fall at a constant speed.


If you put larger diameter tires on your car how would the speedometer reading compare to the speed measured by a radar gun?

idon't know about the speedometer reading but the speed the radar gun is the same as the relative movement of the vehicle not the speed at which the tires revolve

When temperature increases so the reading shown also increases.


An automobile speedometer is configured to read speed proportional to the rotational speed of its wheels If larger wheels such as snow tires are used will the speedometer reading be high low or no dif?

Larger tires will make the speedo lower than actual speed.


Does the reading of the speedometer of a car show the speed or velocity of the car?

The speed of the car. The speed-o-meter only shows a magnitude ( or a number ) and to tell the velocity of a car it would have to give that speed some direction. Since the speedometer assigns no direction to the car, the number assigned as the speed of the car cannot be the velocity of the car.
