Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. What is the formula for velocity?
none of these |
|
\(\vec{v} = { t \over \vec{d} } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = \vec{d}t \) |
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 \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)

The rate of vibration of sound is called:
frequency |
|
amplitude |
|
volume |
|
period |
The rate of vibration of sound is called frequency and is measured in hertz (Hz). One hertz is one repetition per second and sounds with high frequency have a higher pitch than sounds with lower frequency. Humans can hear sounds in the range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
