Displacement
The difference between distance and displacement is this.
hat is displacement has direction (vector), distance does not (scalar)?
The shortest path between an object’s starting point and ending point is called this.
What is displacement?
What is the difference between speed and Velocity?
Direction for velocity. No direction for speed.
Near the surface of the Earth, all freely falling objects accelerate at this rate.
What is 9.8 m/s
The vertical and horizontal motions of a projectile are related in this way.
What is they are independent of each other?
A runner goes 100 m east, then 100 m west. The displacement is this.
0
The slope of a position vs. time graph represents this
What is velocity?
A bird flies 3 km east, then 4 km north. Its displacement is this.
What is 5 km
A ball is dropped from 45 m. The time it takes to hit the ground is approximately this
What is 3.03 seconds
A ball is rolled off a 10 m high table with a horizontal speed of 5 m/s. The time to hit the ground is this.
What is about 1.43 s?
Displacement is classified as this type of quantity
What is a vector?
The slope of a velocity vs. time graph represents this.
What is acceleration?
A person walks 60 m north, then 80 m east. The displacement is this
What is 100 m
A rock is dropped from rest. After 3 seconds, its velocity is this.
What is 29.4 m/s
A ball rolls off a 5 m high table with a horizontal speed of 3 m/s. The horizontal displacement when it hits the ground is this.
What is about 2.14 m
A runner goes 300 m east in 60 seconds, then 400 m west in 80 seconds. The displacement is this.
What is 100 m west
A car moves at a constant velocity of 20 m/s for 5 seconds. The displacement is this.
What is 100 m
A car drives 12 km east, then turns 90° left and goes 5 km. Its displacement is this.
What is 13 km
A stone falls from a cliff and hits the ground at 39.2 m/s. The height of the cliff is this.
What is 78.4 m
A rock is thrown horizontally at 6 m/s from a 10 m high cliff. How long does it take to hit the ground?
What is about 1.43 s
A plane flies 100 km at 45° north of east, then another 100 km at 45° south of east. The total displacement is this.
200 km
A car accelerates at 3 m/s² from rest for 6 seconds. Its displacement is this.
What is 54 m
A hiker goes 5 km east, then 12 km south, then 13 km west. The displacement is this
What is 12.2 km a
A person drops a stone from rest, and it takes 4 s to hit the ground. The stone’s final velocity is this
→ What is 39.2 m/s
A stone rolls horizontally at 8 m/s off a 45 m high cliff. The time to reach the ground and horizontal distance traveled are these.
What is about 3.03 s and 24.2 m
