62% Answer Correctly

species

classes

domains

kingdoms

4

Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. What is the formula for velocity? 

68% Answer Correctly

none of these

\(\vec{v} = \vec{d}t \)

\(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)

\(\vec{v} = { t \over \vec{d} } \)


Solution

Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. Rate is measured in time and position is measured in displacement so the formula for velocity becomes  \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \) 


5

Water freezing or boiling is an example of which of the following?

80% Answer Correctly

phase transition

heating

sublimation

cooling


Solution

A substance undergoes a phase transition when it moves from one state of matter to another, for example, when water freezes or boils.
