Explain the Velocity and Acceleration ?

Answer Posted / mrinal

VELOCITY:-It is simply the rate of change of displacement.
Where displacement means the shortest distance between two
points.It is a vector qantity.It is completely different
from speed.But the both have same unit i.e. metre/second.


ACCELERATION:-It is the rate of change of velocity.It is
also a vector quantity.It's unit is velocity/second.

The system shown in the figure is in equilibrium. The metal spheres are identical and each has a mass of 2 kg. The surface areas of the pistons are equal and 100 square centimeters each. The density of water is 1 g per cubic centimeter. Assuming that the frictions and masses of the pistons are negligible, what is the mass of G? ( g = 10N/kg )
