The rate of change of displacement is called?

The rate of change of displacement is called a velocity.


Differenties between speed n velocity?

speed =dist/time velocity=displacement/time difference is that velocity depicts the direction in which a body is moving as displacement is one of it"s attriebutes but speed does not


Why is speed classifies as a scalar quantity and velocity classified as a vector quantity?

Speed = distance/ time Velocity = displacement / time distance is scalar and displacement is vector


The time-rate of displacement is?

That is called velocity.


The displacement covered by a body in unit time is called velocity?

No. It's called the 'speed' of the body. It's the size of the velocity, but it's not complete informationabout the velocity. If you also give the direction of the displacement, then that information, alongwith the speed, defines the velocity.


Which of the following are vectors speed force mass displacement time velocity energy momentum?

force velocity displacement energy (has to have magnitude and direction)


What is the relationship of the object's speed to its velocity?

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. Velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time.


Displacement vs. Time?

Displacement over time, or how far an object has moved in a given time, is the definition of speed. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity has direction.


How is the velocity of an object different from the speed of an object?

Velocity of a moving body is its rate of DISPLACEMENT with respect to time. But speed is distance traveled per unit time. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity has a direction. 30mph is a speed. 30mph due north is a velocity. Well not really because 'north' is arbitrary but you get the idea. Displacement is both a distance and direction. 30 miles is a distance. 30 miles to the north is a displacement. A two part quantity like velocity or displacement is called a 'vector quantity'. A one part quantity (speed, distance etc) is called a 'scalar quantity'.


What must a displacement always show?

Direction and speed which is also velocity.


What is the differnece between speed acceleration and velocity?

Velocity is the change in displacement in a unit time in a specific direction. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and has no direction. Acceleration is the change in velocity in a unit time.


Is displacement an example of vector quantity?

yes.... A2: displacement is for of a number where a vector has direction. Kind of the difference in speed and velocity but the main difference in this is velocity can be negative.
