What is Acceleration?
100
The acceleration of an object with an initial velocity of 6 m/s and a final velocity of 20 m/s in 2 seconds.
What is 7 m/s2 ?
100
Units for speed and velocity.
What are m/s ?
200
The speed object moves in a specific direction.
What is velocity?
200
The distance an object travels if the velocity is 2 m/s and the time is 15 seconds.
What is 30 meters?
200
The slope of this graph gives you the acceleration of an object.
What is a velocity(speed) vs time graph?
200
A runner goes from 0 m/s to 8 m/s in 4 seconds.
What is 2 m/s2?
200
What does the graph show?
The object is accelerating
300
The 2 variables needed to calculate speed.
What are distance and time?
300
The distance an object travels if going a velocity of 8 m/s in 28 seconds.
What is 224 meters?
300
The formula (equation) for acceleration.
What is (final velocity - initial velocity) / time
300
A car is traveling at 60 m/s when the driver hits the brakes. The car slows to a stop in 5 seconds. What is the runner’s acceleration?
What is -12 m/s2
300
The motion of the object in this velocity vs. time graph.
How to show constant velocity?
400
This position vs. time graph represents an object that is at rest (not moving).
What is a flat or horizontal line?
400
The velocity of an object that travels 45 meters in 3 seconds.
What is 15 m/s?
400
To determine the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line, you calculate the change in speed per this.
What is unit of time?
400
The acceleration of an object starting from rest with a velocity of 98 m/s in 7 seconds.
What is 14 m/s2 ?
400
Units for acceleration.
What is m/s2 ?
500
You can use both a speed vs. time graph and a distance vs. time graph to analyze this type of motion.
What is acceleration?
500
The time it takes an object to travel 198 meters at a velocity of 18 m/s.
What is 11 seconds?
500
Acceleration occurs when an object speeds up, slows down, or __________ .
What is changes direction?
500
The acceleration of an object that slowed down from 100 m/s to 20 m/s in 40 seconds.
What is - 2 m/s2 ?
500
The line on this position vs. time graph representing an object at rest.
