This is the definition of acceleration
What is a change in velocity over time?
100
This is the difference between speed and velocity?
What is speed is distance over time and velocity is distance over time and direction?
100
The slope of a distance/time graph is showing this
What is speed?

When you are measuring an object's motion, what should you use as a frame of reference?
What is a stationary object?
100
This is the definition of a scalar measurement
What is measurements that have size only?
200
When would you have a negative acceleration value?
What is when you are decclerating (slowing down) or when the final velocity is less than the initial velocity?

A bike rider travels for 2 hours covering a total distance of 30 miles. What is the bike rider's average speed?
What is 15 miles/hr?
200
When an object is showing constant speed, describe the shape of the graph
What is a constant slope?
200
This is how displacement can equal zero
What is when you have a round trip?
200
This is the definition of a vector measurement
What is measurements recorded with numbers and units representing an amount(magnitude) and a direction?
300
These are 3 ways to cause acceleration
What is a change in velocity, a change in direction, or a change in both?
300
How can one get the average speed of an object?
What is divide the sum of the total distance over the sum of the total time?
300
When an object is at rest in a distance-time graph, how will the graph look?
What is a horizontal line?
300
This is when displacement equals distance
What is when you are moving in a straight line (one direction)?
300
distance
What is scalar?
400
This is the SI unit for acceleration.
What is m/s/s?

A bike rider starts biking at 8 AM to bike a 20 km race and reaches the finish 9:30 AM. What is her average speed measured in km/min?
What is .22 km/min?
400
Any point on a distance time graph the slope will give you the

Tony moves 6 tiles north across the classroom, then turns and walks 4 miles south across the classroom. What is Tony's displacement?
What is 2 miles north?
400
This is the type of measurement you'd use for velocity.
What is vector?

A football's velocity increases from 10 m/s to 30 m/s over 5 seconds- this is its final acceleration.
What is +4 m/s/s?
