How is crash speed determined when two vehicles are moving in the same direction?
The difference between the two speeds. So if one car is traveling at 60mph and the other is 70mph, it would be a 10mph difference since they are traveling in the same direction. Now, if they were colliding head on, it would be 130mph total speed.Also, 2 cars traveling at exactly the same speed and direction (assuming they start a certain distance apart) will never collide and will maintain that exact distance they started apart.
Is it true or false that velocity only describes the direction in which the object is moving?
Technically, the term velocity means how fast and in what direction is a given object moving; knowing the velocity is certainly part of calculating how long it takes to get from one place to another, but you also have to know how far apart those places are. If two locations are 100 miles apart, and you can drive that distance at 50 miles per hour, then the trip takes two hours.
Which one of the following is NOT an example of a compressional wave a wave moving through a coiled spring sound traveling through the air sound traveling through water green light traveling thru air?
Light is an example of an electromagnetic (EM) wave. EM waves are transverse waves, not compressional waves. Sound waves are compressional waves, so both sound traveling through air and water would be compressional. Waves traveling along a coiled spring compress the coils together and spread them apart, so this is also an example of a compressional wave.
Types of longitudinal waves?
An excellent discussion of wave types can be found here: http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/gbssci/Phys/Class/waves/u10l1c.htmlIn one sentence, a longitudinal wave is any wave where the quantity that is oscillating is along the direction of propagation of the wave. There is no oscillation which is associated with any direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation.We speak of two types of waves, longitudinal and transverse, because almost all waves that we encounter can be categorized as one or the other. (Not all, but almost all waves are one or the other.)For completeness, a transverse wave is one which exhibits the oscillations to be occurring in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion.Example 1. SoundThe sound wave generated by a vibrating string is a longitudinal wave, as are all sound waves. The quantity that is oscillating in a sound wave is the pressure. For a pure tone, the sound wave is a series of peaks and troughs of pressure extending along the line that is the direction the wave is traveling. The pressure does not have a direction and the increases and decreases in pressure are associated with no direction perpendicular to propagation. That is enough to make it a longitudinal wave, i.e. it is enough that it is not a transverse wave.The usual argument that a sound wave is a longitudinal wave utilizes the direction of motion of the air caused by the wave. At any particular point in space, as the wave move past, there is motion of each region of air as it moves sinusoidal forward and backward along the direction of motion. Oscillating movement along the direction of motion certainly meets the criteria necessary to be longitudinal.Example 2. Spring CompressionIn another example, a wave is traveling along a spring where the wave pattern is produced by the coils of the spring moving closer together and further apart and those motions traveling along the spring in a regular sinusoidal pattern. This is directly analogous to the properties of a sound wave and it is, therefore, an example of a longitudinal wave.Example 3: Earthquake Elastic WaveIn Earthquakes, they talk about S and P waves. The P waves are longitudinal and are the propagation of the compression of the Earth material followed by rarefaction followed by compression, etc. It is an elastic wave and the physics of the wave is just like a sound wave or just like the compression waves in the spring in example 2. The S waves are transverse, like water waves on a surface, but they occur inside the Earth, not on a surface.Example 4: Imaginary Color WaveOne could imagine a rope of lights where the colors at each point varied continuously and sinusoidal as the oscillating pattern moved along a wire. (Thing of each point changing color from red to green to blue to green to red etc.) This color wave also has no direction associated with the oscillating character, so it too would be longitudinal.Example 5. QuantumIt is not discussed much, but in the theory of quantum mechanics, there are many examples of waves that have the characteristic that there is no direction associated with the thing that is waving. In fact, so called "matter waves" are such. It is a little tricky to discuss and there may be other opinions, but since they are waves and have no direction of oscillation, they do fit the definition of longitudinal wave. In that theory though they tend to call them scalar waves which has a more accurate technical meaning.

A car traveling 30 miles per hour and another car traveling 41 miles per hour how long before the car rear ends the other car?
Are they travelling on the same road? In the same direction? Which car is in front? How far apart were they to start with? Is the driver in the faster car blind?
Is harry changing in one direction?
no he did not because if he did then one direction would be broken apart
What is the 2005 film The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants about?
Friends spending a Summer apart.
How far apart are each missions from each other?
a days worth of traveling
Going in the same direction but the same distance apart?

How do you tell the boys in one direction apart?
Their names, their looks, how they dress..
Two boats leave from the same dock traveling in opposite directions The first boat is traveling 25 mph and the second is traveling 29 mph How long will it take before they are 162 miles apart?
3 hours.
Two trains leave Chicago one traveling east at 30 miles per hour and one traveling west at 40 miles per hour when will the trains be 210 miles apart?
They are moving apart at 70 miles per hour - 30 plus 40. Therefore, in 3 hours they will be 210 miles apart.
If traveling 0347 mph per sec- how many feet did you traveling?
Apart from converting units (from miles to feet, in this case), you would also need to know for how long you are traveling at that speed. Use the formula:distance = speed x time
Is One Direction falling apart?
No way! At least, not the last time i checked
