Why is the speed limit on a highway an example of a unit rate?
Please help me I need help on this
What is an example of constant motion?
A ball rolling at a constant speed at the same rate of speed on a still surface.
Is speed is an example of scalar?
Yes. Speed is the rate of change of distance. Distance and time being scalars, SPEED is also a scalar
How is veloctionrelatedto both speed and direction?
Speed descibes the rate of motion of an object. Velocity describes rate of motion (speed) of an objectin a specific direction. For example - the car's speed was 60mph, the car's velocity was west at 60mph.
A rate of 50 miles her hour to the east would be an example of an object's?
Speed.
What is speed in calculus?
Speed is an example of a rate of change. It is specifically the rate of change of distance over time.In calculus, speed is the absolute value of velocity. Velocity measures both speed and direction, while speed only measures speed. For example, if a car is driving backward with a speed of 90km/h, its velocity would be -90km/h because "backward" indicates a "negative" velocity.
How do you define average speed?
average speed is the average rate of movement, for example, the number of feet traveled on a yard.average speed is the-total distance/total time.
How do you speed up rate of decomposition?
For example, by increasing the temperature, by grinding the material, treating with chemicals.
What does a rate tell you about the speed?
Rate is another word for speed. It is the speed.
How can acceleration be constant if it is an increase in speed?
Exactly the same way that the speed can be constant but the distance keeps increasing.If the acceleration happens to be an increase in speed, then "constant" accelerationmeans that the speed will increase just as much in the 7th minute, for example,as it increased in the 4th minute, for example, etc.Acceleration can be the rate at which speed changes. So if the acceleration is constant,then the speed is changing at a constant rate.(Note: Acceleration doesn't have to be a change of speed. It can also be a changeof direction, at constant speed.)
What is difference between flow rate and flow velocity in flow tubes?
velocity is the speed of the flow (for example, meters/sec.) Flow rate is the volume per unit time (example: liters/sec.)
How is a cars speed an example of a unit rate?
A unit rate is simply how we describe speed in this case. Examples: Miles per hour Kilometers per hour Feet per second Meters per second and so on.
