A scientist from the United States conducts an experiment using miles per hour to measure speed. Why might this be confusing for scientists in other countries?
A) Scientists in other countries don't usually perform experiments involving speed.
B) Scientists in other countries express speed as mass times acceleration.
C) Scientists in other countries use SI units when measuring speed.
D) Scientists in other countries do no use SI units when measuring.*****
How would the woman in the image below know if the plane she is watching was moving?
A plane is in the road way, a woman is observing it through a window, drinking out of a orange cup.
A) She could use the plane as a reference point.
B) She could use the building behind the plane as a reference point.*****
C) She could use the clouds in the sky as reference points.
D) She could use other moving planes as reference points.
I forgot for a second that other countries use the metric system instead of SI units to measure things
I’m from the future
1 is not right.
2 has no image I can see.
So would one be B..?
Thanks again. I was really confused for a bit, but I eventually found out it was C, due before you told me it was. But none the less, thank you!
Scientists have discovered a galaxy 13.4 billion light years away meaning they can see that galaxy as it was at the predicted start of the universe, and in all that time it has yet to find anybody who asked.
NOPE.

Scientists around the world use the SI system for weights, distance, time, etc. Miles/hour are used in the U.S. for speed by the public.
Answer A can't be right. You should realize that's a ridiculous answer.
B can't be right because mass x acceleration is the definition of force and that isn't measured in miles/hour
C c is right. Scientist in other countries will be confused since they usually use SI units and miles/hour is not an SI unit.
D. D isn't right because scientists in other countries DO use SI units.
