A inline skater is skating around a parking lot can she have constant speed changing velocity?

Not only can she have it, she must, in order to stay on the parking lot.Velocity means speed and direction of motion. If she wants to stay on the nice icyparking lot, she absolutely must change her direction now and then. That means hervelocity has to change, even if her speed doesn't.By the way, that's called 'acceleration'.

When is velocity important?

Velocity is important when someone wants to know the DIRECTION as well as the speed of something. Velocity is a VECTOR value, which means that it has two parts to its magnitude: the direction as well as the speed. This can be important in many scenarios, such as when a rocket is launched..it is very important to know the direction/angle as well as the speed.


Why is marking the starting position important if the student wants to calculate the average speed of the balloon?

Marking the starting position is important because it provides a reference point for measuring the distance traveled by the balloon. To calculate average speed, the distance covered by the balloon needs to be divided by the total time taken. Establishing the starting position ensures an accurate measurement of the distance traveled, which is essential for calculating the average speed correctly.
