Motion Concepts
3 ways to accelerate.
What is speed up, slow down, and change direction?
d=? t= 10 s s= 4.5 m/s
What is 45 m?
Change in velocity= 66 m/s t= ? a= 11 m/s2
What is 6 s?
m/s2
(meters per second squared)
What is a unit of acceleration?
d=250 km t= 5 min s= ?
What is 50 km/min?
change in v =90 m/s t= 4.5 s a= ?
What is 20 m/s2 ?
Measurement of the distance covered in a given amount of time.
What is speed?
d=18 mi t= ? s= 2.5 mi/hr
What is 2.5 hr?
A mouse accelerates at a rate of 3 m/s2 for 34 seconds. What is the mouse’s change in velocity?
What is 102 m/s?
Measurement of the distance traveled in a certain direction in a given amount of time.
What is velocity?
How much time does it take for a person moving at a speed of 5 miles per hour to travel a distance of 46.5 miles?
What is 9.3 hours?
initial v= 50 m/s final v= 18 m/s t= ? a= 4 m/s2
What is 8 s ?
Measurement of the rate of change of an object's velocity.
What is acceleration?
A baseball is thrown a distance of 160 feet. What is its speed if it takes 47 seconds to cover the distance?
What is 3.40 ft/s?
A driver presses the gas pedal in their car. The car increases its speed from 12 m/s to 20 m/s in 2.5 seconds. What is the acceleration of the car?
What is 2.5 m/s2 ?
