Motion describes a change in this
What is direction and speed
100
This is the formula for Acceleration
What is change in Velocity divided by time
100
The formula for Speed
What is Distance divided by Time
100
A student is running through the halls of a high school at a constant velocity of 5 m/s so that he/she can be on time to class. If the class is 25 meters away, will the student make it in 4 seconds?
What is no
100
A variable that you, the scientist, change
What is independent
200
This is how you measure distance from point a to point b.
What is measuring the actual path you travel
200
The units for acceleration
What is m/s/s or m/s2
200
The units for speed
What is m/s
200
A basketball is thrown and travels 12 meters in 2 seconds. This is the speed of the basketball.
What is 6 m/s
200
A variable that changes as a result of the independent variable changing: something you measure.
What is Dependent
300
How you find the displacement from point a to points b
What is measure from point a to point b in a straight line
300
What are the units for velocity
What is m/s
300
The difference between speed and velocity
What is velocity is speed with direction
300
A car moves into the passing lane and goes from traveling at a speed of 50 m/s to a speed of 70 m/s within 12 meters, this is the cars acceleration
What is 1.6 m/s
300
Usually shown in a table or graph.
What is data/results
400
A distance vs. time graph represents this type of motion
What is speed
400
The acceleration of a car that travels in a straight line at a constant speed
What is 0/No acceleration
400
The speedometer of a car reads this type of speed
What is instantaneous speed
400
You need to get to class, 200 meters away, and you can only walk in the hallways at about 1.5 m/s. (if you run any faster, you’ll be caught for running). This is how long it will take you to get to class.How much time will it take to get to your class?
What is 133.33 seconds or 2.2 minutes
400
A variable that doesn’t change, remains the same (goes untested)
What is control
500
If an airplane travels at a constant speed of 4,520 mph from point a to point b, does it have a constant velocity as well?
What is no, velocity measures direction as well
500
Besides speed, this is the other way you can change you velocity
What is changing direction
500
How do you find the speed of an object using a distance vs. time graph
What is find the slope
500
A roller coaster car rapidly picks up speed as it rolls down a slope. As it starts down the slope, its speed is 4 m/s. But 3 seconds later, at the bottom of the slope, its speed is 22 m/s. What is its average acceleration?
What is 6 m/s/s
500
Prediction to the question you asked
What is hypothesis
