Distance- The length along a path between two points .

Velocity- The rate and direction at which an object moves .

Displacement- The net change in position of an object .

Vector- A measurement that has both magnitude and direction .

Speed- Measure of the rate at which an object changes position .

Momentum- The mass of an object multiplied by its velocity.

Explanation:

Vector: A physical quantity having both magnitude and direction is called Vector quantity. Example: Displacement, Velocity, Acceleration, Force etc.

On the other hand , quantity having only magnitude is called Scalar. Example: Distance, Speed, Time, Current etc.

Distance: The totle length of path traversed by a body in certain time is called distance. It is scalar quantity as it has only magnitude. SI unit of distance is meter.

Displacement: It is defined as change in position of a body in given period of time. Actually it is the distance between initial and final position along with given direction. So it is vector quantity. SI unit is meter.

Speed: The rate at which distance is traveled with respect to time is called speed.It is scalar quantity. SI unit is meter/second.

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}$

Velocity: It can be defined as rate of change in position or displacement with respect to time.It is vector quantity. SI unit is meter/second.

$Velocity=\frac{Displacement}{Time}$

Momentum: The amount of motion contain in a body is the momentum. It is defined as product of mass and velocity. It is vector quantity. SI unit is kg.meter/second

Momentum=Mass×Velocity

This is what i found on google “what happens to the bond angle when you add or remove an electron domain? the bond angle decreases as you add domains 5. can you force the atoms into new configurations by pushing atoms around? note: we can think of a bond or a lone pair of electrons as a “domain” of electrons.” i hope this you

two charges are fixed in place on the x-axis as shown. the charge at x = 0 is negative and has magnitude q = 2 μcoulombs (1 μcoulomb = 10-6 coulombs). the charge at x = d, (d = +12 cm), is positive and has magnitude q = 4 μcoulombs. find a point x = xo along the x-axis at which the electric field is zero.

To place a communications satellite into a geosynchronous orbit at an altitude of 22,240 mi above the surface of the earth, the satellite first is released from a space shuttle , which is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 185 mi, and then is propelled by an upper-stage booster to its final altitude. as the satellite passes through a, the booster's motor is fired to insert the satellite into an elliptic transfer orbit. the booster is again fired at b to insert the satellite into a geosynchronous orbit. knowing that the second firing increases the speed of the satellite by 4810ft/s, determine (a.) the speed of the satellite as it approaches b on the elliptic transfer orbit, (b.) the increase in speed resulting from the first firing at a.
