How is power defined in physical science?
In physics, Power is the amount of work done in a given amount of time. (Note: Work, in the scientific sense, is the amount of force multiplied by vertical distance traveled.)
What is the distance traveled over a given time interval?
That is called speed, or - if the direction is also relevant - velocity.
What is the best way to describe wavelength?
the distance a wave travels in a given amount
What 2 factors do you need to know to determine the speed of an object?
you have to look at a given distances that it covered when it moved , and at the time it took to cover that distance
What is the definition of linear speed?
Linear speed is defined as the speed that the body moves in a linear path. It is the distance that is traveled within a given time for a linear path.
What measures distance traveled in a given time interval?
Speed
Does odometer in a car measure the average speed?
No, the odometer measures the distance traveled by a vehicle. The speedometer measures the speed at any given moment in time, but not the average speed.
What is distance traveled in a given amount of time?
A speed. If the direction is relevant, a velocity.
How do you find number of rotations given the diameter of a circle and the distance traveled?
Divide the distance traveled by the product of the diameter and pi.

How does distance vary with the square of time?
For a free-falling object, you can calculate the total distance traveled, given the amount of time. The distance of the fall is proportional to the square of the time elapsed. In general, distance can be found by the relationship between acceleration and time squared. If we let a be acceleration, which can be gravity if you want, and t be time, then we have: The distance traveled = 1/2 * a * t2 The distance traveled = 1/2 * g* t2
What is distance traveled by the body in a given direction in the unit time called?
velocity
What instrument measures the amount of matter in a given object?
volume
What are some ideas to use as a car log book?
A logbook was originally a book for recording readings from the chip log, and is used to determine the distance a ship traveled within a certain amount of time. The readings of the log have been recorded in equal times to give the distance traveled with respect to a given start position.
What instrument measures the amount of gas given off by yeast?
respiromterrespirometer
What dose a heliograph measure?
It measures he amount of sunlight at a given location.
What is the distance traveled over a given time interval?
That is called speed, or - if the direction is also relevant - velocity.
