100
a type of relationship that is represented by a straight line on a graph
What is linear?
100
What type of diagram is represented by taking a series of photographs at equal time intervals of a moving object
What is a motion diagram?
100
The length of time it will take a car accelerating uniformly at 1.5 m/s^2 to reach the speed of 65 m/s?
What is 43 seconds? t = v/a = 65/1.5 = 43
200
the most precise measurement of the following numbers 2.35, 235, 0.235, 0.0235
What is 0.0235
200
Vector components for "speed" and "distance"
What is velocity and displacement
200
The slope of a velocity vs time graph
What is acceleration (velocity / time)?
300
An explanation supported by experimental results.
What is a scientific theory.
300
the slope of a position vs time graph
What is velocity? (position / time) - know how to get this off an actual chart
300
If a scooter accelerates from 1.5 m/s to 3.0 m/s in 5 seconds, the average acceleration
What is 0.30 m/s^2 vf = vi + at 3.0 = 1.5 + a*5 a = 0.30 m/s^2
400
The apparent shift in position of an object when it is viewed from various angles.
What is parallax
400
The absolute value of the slope on a position vs. time graph
What is speed?
400
an objects motion when it has a negative velocity and positive acceleration
What is slowing down in a negative direction?
500
a picometer in scientific notation
What is 10 E-12
500
An object's velocity is 2.0 m/s, how long it takes to reach 40 meters?
What is 20 seconds? t = (xf - xi) / v
500
a jogger passes the starting line at 0.4 m/s. If the runners acceleration is 0.20 m/s^2, what is their velocity three seconds after passing the starting line>
What is 1.0 m/s? Vf = Vi + at Vf = 0.40 + (0.20)*3 = 1.0 m/s
