Please help!! I will give brainliest! Q: Is the direction important when calculating speed? Explain.

Depends.

Explanation:

Whether the object is going left or right, the speed will stay the same until friction eventually stops it. However, if, for example, we're talking about an object going straight before veering right, then yes, speed does matter. An object will normally have to speed up or slow down momentarily when changing direction to keep itself sustained on the ground.

So, honestly? It really depends on what we're talking about!

Hope this helped!

shows up as a (purple)/ (flashing) red or blue dot getting bigger and brighter.

explanation:

with 5 seconds, no, but over time if the police car stays at 65m/s ad the speeding car stays at 60, then obviously yes, but the answer to your question would be, no.

hope this : )
