<span>The metric
system is the oldest name for the international system of units. The answer is <u>a.
True. </u>SI unit or the international systems of units are based on seven
basic units; the meter, kilogram, second, ampere, Kelvin, candela and mole. All
of these basic units are divided into multiples by a power of ten. For example
in meters, 1 meter is equal to: 1000 millimeter, 100 centimeter, 10 decimeter,
0.1 decameter, 0.01 hectometer, 0.001 kilometer and so on and so forth.</span>
They are formed when two plates collide, either crumpling up and forming mountains or pushing one of the plates under the other and back into the mantle to melt. Convergent boundaries form strong earthquakes, as well as volcanic mountains or islands, when the sinking oceanic plate melts.
Answer:
<em>50 m/s</em>

Explanation:
In a projectile motion, acceleration is only on the vertical plane, that is, the vertical velocity is the only velocity component that undergoes acceleration under gravitational force. The horizontal component of velocity dos not change with time, and hence is the same as the initial velocity of the projectile.
The correct answer is C. Velocity is a vector and requires a direction.
Explanation:
In physics both speed and velocity are used to study the motion of a body; however, they are slightly different. In the case of speed, this describes the rate of change in position based on distance and time, because of this, speed is based on a magnitude or quantity. On the other hand, velocity is a vector because it does not only includes a change of position but the direction of motion usually based on a specific location reference.
Considering this, it can be concluded the difference between speed and velocity is that "velocity is a vector and requires a direction" because velocity includes both the distance and time (speed) along with the direction while speed focuses only on time and distance.
