What is the difference between saying that one quantity is proportional to another and saying it is equal to another?

When one quantity is proportional to another, it indicates that one quantity is dependent on the other by a factor and increases/decreases with the other quantity. When the two quantities are equal, the output of both the quantities is said to be the same.


Diference between velocity and speed?

Velocity has speed and direction. Speed only has speed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speed is a scalar quantity having only magnitude But velocity is a vector quantity having both magnitude and direction. So a body is said to move with uniform speed around a circle but not with uniform velocity as the direction is always changing.


What is the difference between the accuracy and the validity of a measurement?

Accuracy is a characteristic of the exactness or correctness of an answer. Validity is a characteristic of the answer's appropriateness to the question. For example, if I said, "It is approximately 47 billion, 312 million, 697 inches from New York to Chicago" that may be a very accurate answer to the question "How far is it from New York to Chicago", but it's not very valid - most people don't measure distance between cities in inches.


What does weight mean?

It could be said that it is how much force is gravity putting on the object, weight is related to mass and gravity, such that : weight = mass x gravity It is a common mistake thinking that weight is same as mass, mass is the amount of quantity in an object, and doesn't vary according to position as weight does. It means that you put fat on
