What formula do we use to solve for Speed?
Distance/Time
100
What does the slope of a Distance vs. Time (or Position vs. Time) graph represent?
Velocity
100
TRUE or FALSE: These are examples of velocity... 5 m/s, 60 km/hr
FALSE -- velocity has speed AND direction
examples: 5 m/s away, 60 km/hr south
200
When solving for distance, does direction matter?
No, direction does not matter
200
Displacements in opposite directions are? (Mathematically)
Subtracted
200
If you move 50 m in 10 s, what is your speed?
5 m/s
200
If the slope of a line is zero, how is the object moving?
STOPPED/not moving
200
What is the definition of velocity?
Velocity is the change in distance over time (speed + direction)
300
Mia walks 2 miles N and 3 miles S, what distance did she travel?
5 miles
300
Ryan runs 3 laps around a 400 m track. What is the displacement?
0, no direction
300
What is the speed of an object that travels 60 meters in 4 seconds?
15 m/s
300
If the slope of the line is positive, how is the object moving?
It is moving away from start
300
What is the definition of acceleration?
Acceleration is the change in velocity (speed, direction, or both)
400
Chris runs 3 laps around the 400m track. What is his distance?
1200 m
400
Can displacement and distance ever be the same amount?
Yes, if the measurements are in the same direction
400
A rocket traveled 90 meters in 45 seconds. What is its speed?
2 m/s
400
If the slope of the line is negative, how is the object moving?
It is moving toward the start
400
A car is stopped at rest. Is this an example of acceleration?
NO
500
You run away at 3 m/s for 15 s. What distance do you travel?
45 m
500
What is my displacement if I walk 15 m north and then walk 7 m south
8 m North
500
The cheetah has a speed of 75 mi/hr and the horse has a speed of 44 mi/hr. Which is faster and why? Use the word 'distance' and 'time' in your answer
Cheetah because it covers more distance in the same amount of time

Make a motion graph story for the 3 parts of the graph below:
1) moving away quickly
2) moving away at slower rate
3) moving toward
500
A car slows down before it enters an exit turn off of the highway. Is this an example of acceleration?
YES (change in speed and direction)
