Speed is a scalar quantity and has only magnitude and not direction. Hence, speed cannot tell us what direction an object is moving. However, velocity which is the vector equivalent of speed, can tell us the direction.
The speed and direction of an object is its velocity.
dolphins use ecolocation. which is a sound they make and when the vibrations of the sound bounce off an object . the dolphins can tell how far away from the object they are. they use this because they have very poor eyesight.
dolphins do not go down deep enough where they would not be able to see, but they hunt with ecolocation, that is, they send out sound waves and wait for the echo to bounce off an object, using this, they can tell what its shape is, how big it is, where it is, what direction it's coming from, and how fast it's moving
Yes. If the slope is positive, the direction of the displacement is positive (e.g. north, east, or right). If the slope is negative, the direction of the displacement is negative (e.g. south, west, or left).
Velocity tells us the speed of an object's motion as well as its direction of movement.
The speed of an object tells you how fast it is moving. It does not provide information about the direction of the object's motion or whether it is changing direction. To fully describe an object's motion, you would need to also consider its velocity, which includes both speed and direction.
Yes, the velocity of an object indicates its speed and direction of motion at a specific point in time. By observing changes in velocity over time, you can determine if an object has moved and in which direction.
You check out the speed and direction, and times them together, and it will tell you the velocity of the object.
Knowing the net for will tell you various things, including the direction, speed, and acceleration.
Since any object's acceleration is proportional to the net force on the object, the object's motion will tell you about the net force on it, i.e., the vector sum of all forces acting on the object. However, you will not be able to tell anything about the individual forces unless there is only one.
You can tell an object is accelerating if its velocity is changing, either in speed or direction. This can be observed by noticing a change in the object's position over time.
