What is an example of metric measurements?
The speed of light is 300,000,000 metres per second.
Which two measurements are needed in order to calculate the speed of an object in motion?
The two measurements needed to calculate the speed of an object in motion are distance traveled and the time taken to travel that distance. Speed is calculated as distance divided by time.
What are other measurements needed to calculate speed?
To calculate speed, you need distance and time measurements. The speed can be calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken to travel that distance. It helps provide information about how fast an object is moving.
How do you calculate the relative speed of two trains passing each other?
If two trains are passing each other the relative speed can be found by adding the individual speeds of the two trains. This applies if the trains are passing each other in opposite directions. Should one be passing the other and both be moving in the same direction, the difference of the individual speeds would be the relative speed of the trains.
What measurements do you need to calculate the speed of a train?
distance travelled and time taken average speed = distance/time
What Two measurements to calculate speed?
Miles per hour or kilometers per hour
How do you use the metric system in math?
You use it to record measurements such as height or distance, speed or density, to convert from one set of units to another and to calculate the effect that one attribute (force) might have on another attribute (acceleration) of a third (mass).
Which measurements would not be used to solve for average speed?
There are too many measurements that wouldn't have to be made in order to calculate an average speed. The only measurements that would matter in the most general example are the distance travelled and the time it took.
If A student measures the speed of a rolling ball three times. She adds the measurements and divides by 3. What quantity did the student calculate?
She obtained the average speed of the three measurements.
Is metric and meter the same?
Yes and no. The metric system is a decimalized system of measurements that was developed in contrast to "Standard" or "English" measurements where conversions are more difficult to calculate. The principal unit of the metric system is the meter, a unit of length. Other units are based on the meter: Volume: a liter is 1/1000th of a meter cubed Mass: a kilogram is (basically) the mass of one liter of water Speed: measured in terms of meters per second or kilometers per hour etc.
What kinds of trains are there?
speed trains and trains to transport people
When A student measures the speed of a rolling ball three times. She adds the measurements and divides by 3. What quantity did the student calculate?
Average measured speed.
