Velocity The word‚ velocity‚ originates from the Latin word‚ vēlōcitās‚ meaning swiftness or speed. Velocity is one of the basic words used in mathematics and physics and forms the basis for the more important formulae used in high level study of these subjects. According to the dictionary‚ the definition of velocity is the rate of change of position of an object. In simple words‚ velocity means the distance travelled by an object over some time divided by the time taken by the object to travel

At birth‚ a blue whale calf is about 25 feet (7.6 m) long and weighs more than an elephant. And they do grow up fast: During the first 7 months of its life‚ a blue whale drinks approximately 100 gallons (379 liters) of its mother’s milk per day‚ putting on as much as 200 pounds (91 kg) every 24 hours. An adult blue whale can eat more than 4 tons (3.6 metric tons) of krill‚ a tiny shrimp-like

Q.1) The Slope of the second run is greater than the slope of the first run. The first piece of evidence is in the data calculations themselves. In run number 1 the calculated slope 15 m/s which is considerably less than the slope of the second run which was at a swift 0.27 m/s. Also as you can clearly see

Resonance RESONANCE: " The property whereby any vibratory system responds with maximum amplitude to an applied force having the a frequency equal to its own." In english‚ this means that any solid object that is struck with a sound wave of equal sound wave vibrations will amplitude the given tone. This would explain the reason why some singers are able to break wine glasses with their voice. The vibrations build up enough to shatter the glass. This is called RESONANCE. Resonance
