Draw a simple graph that shows constant velocity. Label the x and y axis.
#1: A velocity/time graph with a flat horizontal line.
//or//
#2: A distance/time graph with a diagonal line.

Draw a simple graph that shows constant acceleration. Label the x and y axis.
It should be a velocity vs time graph, with a straight diagonal line (showing constant acceleration). //OR//
An acceleration vs time graph, with a flat horizontal line.

What are the three laws of motion? Your descriptions must be amazing.
1st Law - objects at rest or in constant motion will remain at rest or in constant motion unless a force is applied
2nd - the force of an object equals the product of its mass and acceleration
3rd - for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction

How does Newton’s second law of motion explain the weight of an object?
The weight of an object is its mass times the acceleration due to gravity (i.e. the gravity of what that object is on)
F = ma same as Weight = mg (g= acceleration due to gravity)

How much time would it take for the sound of thunder to travel 1,500 meters if sound travels at a speed of
330 m/s?
4.54 seconds
Time = Distance / Speed

Dominic Roth is in a roller coaster car, which rapidly picks up speed as it rolls down a slope. As it starts down the slope, its speed is 4 m/s. But 3 seconds later, at the bottom of the slope, his speed is 22 m/s. What is its average acceleration?
6 m/s2 (you must include units for the points)
Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Time
