The early travelers used the stars not to get lost. They took the direction of star and if moving in same direction, the star would remain in the same direction.
Most planets rotate on their axes in a counterclockwise direction when viewed from above the Sun's north pole. This direction is known as prograde rotation. Venus is an exception, as it rotates in a retrograde or clockwise direction.
You've got to be careful with these Earth rotation directions. It depends on which pole you're lookin from. If you look down on the North pole then counterclockwise motion would be California rotating toward New York so you would call it rotation East and this would be the Earth's actual direction of rotation. However if you looked at the same rotation up at the South pole you would call it Clockwise rotation. In most cases of rotation it is understood that you look down along the axis but sometimes its not clear and you should specify how you are looking along the axis before you say clockwise or counterclockwise.
No, kicking a bucket in space would not hurt since there is no gravity to cause it to hit anything. The bucket would continue to float in the same direction at a constant velocity.
False. While most comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets (counterclockwise when viewed from above Earth's North Pole), there are exceptions. Some comets have retrograde orbits, meaning they orbit in the opposite direction of the planets.
Same as it is everywhere. If looked at from above, anything moving clockwise will move in the same direction as the hands of a clock would move in.
The opposite of changing directions would be maintaining a course, or continuing in the same direction.
Its magnitude would be the sum of all the magnitudes, and the direction would be the same as the component vectors.
I looked it up because I was wondering the same thing ! It said he was Muslim. So there you go. :)
If they're exactly in the same direction, then the resultant is also in the same direction, and its magnitude is equal to the sum of the two individual magnitudes.
The bathyscaphe works by turning on its engine and it dives into the water and a lot of air is trapped inside it so it swims to the bottom of the sea/ocean. The pressure at the bottom of the sea/ocean is enough to squish a human.
Yes. The belt goes over both cams at the same time traveling in the same direction.
No, because velocity includes direction as well as speed.In order for the velocities to be the same, they would have to go the same speed in the same direction.

Racism would become largely obsolete. But if everyone looked the same, you would have a very hard time figuring out who was who: your family, friends, and coworkers would be indistinguishable without name tags or uniforms.
you would probley flip over and die
