1. How is it possible to be accelerating and traveling at a constant speed?

2. Describe the relationship between motion and a reference point.

3. Explain why its important for airplane pilots to know wind velocity, not just wind speed, during a flight.

4. Explain the difference between mass and weight.

5. Explain how using the term accelerator when talking about a car's gas pedal can lead to confusion, considering the scientific meaning of the word acceleration.
( just in case you dont know the scientific meaning acceleration=the rate at which velocity changes.)

If you are turning a corner, your velocity is changing, but you speed is not, so you are accelerating.
2. motion happens only with a reference point. For example if you are driving in a car, in comparison to the car, you are not moving, if the reference point is yourself, then the road is moving backwards, and from the road, you are moving forwards.
3. It matters whether the wind is blowing forward backward, sideways, because it will affect the direction, speed does not give information.
4. mass-measure of the amount of substance,
weight-force pushing down on you.
5. acceleration happens when there is a change of direction too.

1. Traveling into the wind.
2. Motion is determined by the where the object is in relation to the reference point.
3.( I think you mean direction and speed) Because both direction and speed are used to calculate 'crab angle' or
'course to steer'. (This counteracts the winds effect on desired flight path)

Someone else can give you the last 2 :)

a million. in case your travelling in a circle you may be accelerating in the route of the middle yet you would possibly want to nevertheless be on a similar % basically in a distinct route. 2. A reference aspect is used to study the action of an merchandise because it strikes 3. speed includes a route and magnatude, because the wind might want to push a plane in any route that's had to take route into consideration 4. mass is the quantity of count number that makes up an merchandise, weight is how strongly gravity outcomes an merchandise 5.the gas pedal is used to boost up the motorcar in an excellent route. the spoil also hastens the motorcar yet in a unfavourable route.
