For velocity unit, is it, for example, 30 m/s^2?
Cpl_uppem said:how do u calculate velocity WITHOUT time?
"30 m/s^2" is a representation of velocity, which is the rate of change of an object's position over time. Specifically, it indicates that the object is moving at a speed of 30 meters per second in a given direction, and that its velocity is changing by 30 meters per second every second.
No, 30 m/s^2 is not a common velocity unit. Velocity is typically measured in meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/h). The unit "m/s^2" is typically used to measure acceleration, not velocity.
Yes, an example of an object moving at 30 m/s^2 would be a car accelerating from 0 to 30 m/s in 1 second. This means that the car's velocity is increasing by 30 m/s every second, resulting in a final velocity of 30 m/s after 1 second.
30 m/s^2 is a relatively high velocity. For comparison, the average speed of a human walking is about 1.4 m/s, while the speed of sound is approximately 343 m/s. This means that an object moving at 30 m/s^2 would be traveling much faster than a person walking, but still significantly slower than the speed of sound.
Yes, velocity units can be converted to other units of measurement. For example, 30 m/s^2 can be converted to 108 km/h by multiplying it by 3.6 (since 1 km/h is equal to 1/3.6 m/s). However, it is important to note that the unit "m/s^2" represents acceleration, not velocity, so converting it to a velocity unit may not always be appropriate.
