100
This is a reference point.
What is the starting point you choose to describe the location or position of an object?
100
This is a measure of how far an object travels in a given time.
What is speed?
100
This is the change in velocity during a time interval divided by the time interval during which the velocity changes.
What is average acceleration?
100
This is an object's speed when it has covered 5 meters in 2.5 seconds.
What is 2m/s?
100
These are the SI units for acceleration.
What is m/s/s?
200
This is a position.
What is an object's distance and direction from a reference point?
200
This is a rate of change in position in which the same distance is traveled per unit time.
What is constant velocity?
200
This is a measure of change in velocity during a period of time.
What is acceleration?
200
This is an objects speed when it has covered 50 meters in 10 seconds.
What is 5 m/s?
200
This is the acceleration of an object moving from 10m/s to 15 m/s in 5 seconds.
What is 1 m/s/s?
300
This is motion.
What is the process of changing position?
300
This is speed at a specific instant in time.
What is instantaneous speed?
300
When a speed-time graph is a horizontal line, this describes the object's motion.
What is constant speed?
300
A student runs at 5 m/s. This is how long it takes before she's covered one kilometer.
What is 200 seconds?
300
This is the acceleration of an object moving from 60 m/s to 45 m/s in 45 seconds.
What is 1/3 m/s?
400
This is displacement.
What is the difference between an object's initial position and its final position?
400
This is the total distance traveled by the total time it took to travel that distance.
What is average speed?
400
This is how the speed-time graph of an object that is speeding up looks.
What is slanted upward?
400
A bike was being ridden for 300 m in 22 seconds, then for 200 m in 11 seconds. What was the change in velocity?
What is +4.55 m/s?
400
This is the acceleration of an object moving from 100 m/s to 50 m/s in 10 seconds.
What is -5 m/s/s?
500
If you walk 2 km from your house to a store and back again, this is your displacement.
What is 0km?
500
This is the speed and direction of a moving object.
What is velocity?
500
This is how the speed-time graph looks for an object at rest.
What is a horizontal line at y=0?
500
A car is traveling at 25 m/s. The person driving has 15 minutes to make it to the bank, which is 21 kilometers away. Does she make it?
What is "Yes"? (There's obviously some math here. Jeopardy is awkward some times.)
500
A car accelerates from 0-60 mph, 27 m/s, in 5.1 seconds. This is it's acceleration in m/s/s.
What is 5.29 m/s/s?
