Miscellaneous
100
This is the total path traveled
What is distance
100
This is the distance traveled over time
What is speed
100
This can be found from a distance-time graph
What is speed
100
Two possible units for distance
What is meters or kilometers or miles
100
Moving to the right or up makes velocity this
What is positive
200
This can only be positive and does not have to be a straight line
What is distance
200
This is speed that can be positive or negative
What is velocity
200
On a distance-time graph, this is on the y-axis.
What is distance
200
Two possible units for time
What is seconds, minutes, hours, days, years, etc.
200
Moving in these 2 directions make velocity negative
What is left or down
300
This is a change in position, or how far from the starting point an object is
What is displacement
300
This means that an object traveled equal distance in equal time.
What is constant speed
300
On a distance-time graph, this is on the x-axis
What is time
300
Two possible units for speed or velocity
What is m/s, km/hr, mi/hr
300
Your displacement if you start and end in the same place
What is zero
400
This has to be a straight line and can be positive or negative
What is displacement
400
Velocity has this but speed does not
What is direction
400
This part of the graph tells you speed
What is slope
400
If velocity is in km/hr, what units does time need?
What is hours
400
On a distance-time graph, a steep slope means that the object is moving how?
What is fast
500
Displacement has this while distance does not.
What is direction
500
The total distance traveled divided by the total time taken to travel that distance
What is average speed
500
If a distance-time graph is a horizontal line, what is the object doing?
What is not moving
500
Given a time in minutes and distance in meters, if you want velocity in m/s, which unit needs to be converted and to what?
What is time to seconds
500
There are this many meters in a kilometer
What is 1000
