How an echo could be used to measure the distance to an object that is reflecting sound?
An echo can be used to measure distance by sending out a sound pulse and measuring the time it takes for the sound to bounce off the object and return as an echo. The distance can be calculated using the time taken for the sound to travel back and forth and the speed of sound in the medium. By knowing the speed of sound and the time it takes for the sound to return, the distance to the object can be determined.

What science tool would you use to measure the length of an object?
You could use a ruler or a measuring tape to measure the length of an object. Both tools have markings that allow you to accurately determine the distance from one point to another.
How are distance or displacement similar and different?
Displacement is the distance that something has moved. You could have distances between two different objects, and the distance could be constant if the objects do not move. Displacement is always for the same object, and it has to have moved.There is one other sense for the word displacement: it is the amount of liquid that an object displaces (takes the place of) when the object is placed in the liquid. For example, when a boat floats in the water, it displaces 1 gallon of water for every 8 pounds the boat weighs. If an object sinks, it is because it displaces water that weighs less than the object does.
How could you use a light gate to work out the speed of an object one point in time?
To calculate the speed of an object using a light gate, you would measure the time it takes for the object to pass through the gate. By dividing the distance between the light gate and the point where the object is launched by the time taken, you can determine the speed of the object at that point in time.
What is a measure of quantity in an object?
A measure of quantity in an object refers to the amount of that object present. It could be measured in terms of weight, volume, count, or any other relevant unit of measurement depending on the characteristics of the object being measured.
Infer whether the size of an object's displacement could be greater than the distance the object travels?
Displacement and distance travelled are synonymous, so my inference would be no, it can't.

What is the measure of distance an object travels per unit of time?
The distance an object travels per unit of time is called its speed, or velocity if you are also considering its direction of travel. This could be measured in meters per second, kilometers per hour, inches per year or any other unit of measure that divides distance by time.
Is a measure of the distance an object travel per unit of time?
The distance an object travels per unit of time is called its speed, or velocity if you are also considering its direction of travel. This could be measured in meters per second, kilometers per hour, inches per year or any other unit of measure that divides distance by time.
What unit could measure the power generated by an object?
Watts are commonly used to measure power generated by an object.
How do you figure out perimeter math problems?
the perimeter is the distance around an object you add up the sides unless it is an odd shape than you could use a string and then measure that
What does a horizontal slope of a distance versus time graph indicate about an objects motion?
It is a measure of speed of the object, but only in the radial direction: that is, towards or away from the point from which distance is measured. The object could be going around that point in circular motion and the graph would show absolutely nothing.
Is a meter stick used to measure distance?
It could be, yes.
What could you measure in meters?
Length or any linear distance.

What could you measure in mm?
Any length or distance can be expressed in mm.
