What is the difference between Speed and Velocity

Speed is a scalar (just a magnitude)

Velocity is a vector (direction and magnitude)

100

What unit is energy measured in?

Joules (J)

100

What is the formula for acceleration?

a = (vf- vi) / t

100

What is the formula for force?

F = ma

100

What animal is the town Mr. B is from best known for?

A Beaver

200

what are the formulas for speed and velocity

Speed: V=(d/t)

Velocity: V = (d/t) **Need arrows above V and T**

200

What are the formulas for potential and Kinetic Energy?

E(k) = 1/2mv^2

E(p) = mgh

200

What are the units for acceleration?

m/s^2

200

What is the formula for work?

W = Fd

200

A car with an average speed of 120km/h is making the trip from Edmonton to Calgary in two and a half hours. How far apart are the two cities?

v = d/t → d = vt

d = (120km/h)(2.5h)

d = 300 km

300

what is the mass of a plane if at 10km altitude, it has 7.8x10^9 J of potential energy?

E(p)= mgh → m = E(p)/gh

m = 7.8x109J/(9.81m/s^2 x 10,000m)

m = 8.0 x 10^4kg

As youre walking to science class, you realize that you're late and start running. You go from 0.90M/S [E] to 4.1M/S [E] in 3.5 S. What is your acceleration?

a = (vf- vi) / t

a = (4.1m/s - 0.90m/s) / 3.5s

a = 0.91 m/s^2 [E]

300

What units are force and work measured in?

Force = Newtons (N) = kg X m/s^2

Work = Joules (J) = kg X (m^2/s^2)

Connor Mcdavid takes a slapshot, but misses the net and hits the boards. The puck initially travels at 42M/S [E] and takes 0.50S to hit the boards. It bounces back and travels 9.7M/S [W] for 1.6S. Determine the pucks distance travelled.

v = 42 m/s

d = ?

t = 0.50 s


v = 9.7 m/s

d = ?

t = 1.6 s


d = vt

d = (42m/s)(0.50s)

d = 21 m


d = vt

d = (9.7m/s)(1.6s)

d = 16 m

Total distance = 21m + 16m = 37m

What is the mass of a truck that has 90.0 KJ of E(k) while it is moving 15.0 M/S?

E(k) = 1⁄2mv^2 → m = 2E(k)/v^2

m = (2 x 90,000J) / (15.0m/s)^2

m = 800 kg

A cat pushes a plant off a shelf. Right before it hits the ground the plant has a velocity of of 7.9M/S [down]. If acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 M/S^2 [down], how long does it take the plant to hit the ground?

a = (vf- vi) / t → t = (vf- vi / a)

t = (-7.9m/s - 0m/s) / -9.81m/s2

t = 0.81 s

You use a force of 70 N to push a 20kg box to the right. what will the boxes acceleration be?

F = ma → a = F/m

a = 70N / 20kg

a = 3.5 m/s2[right]

What is Mr. B's favorite movie or song? (I'll accept either answer)

Movie = City of GOD

Song = Down to the Honkytonk

Connor Mcdavid takes a slapshot, but misses the net and hits the boards. The puck initially travels at 42M/S [E] and takes 0.50S to hit the boards. It bounces back and travels 9.7M/S [W] for 1.6S. Determine the pucks displacement. 

(+21m) + (-16m) = 5.0 m [E]

Mechanical energy is E(m) = E(p) + E(k). 

A 1.25 kg bird is flying at 8.00 M/S, 25.0 M above the ground. What is the birds mechanical energy?

E(m)= 1⁄2mv^2 + mgh

E(m)= 1⁄2(1.25kg)(8.00m/s)^2 + (1.25kg (9.81m/s^2)(25.0m)

E(m) = 347 J

A diver jumps right off a diving board and takes 1.5 S to reach the water. What is her velocity right before she hits the water?

a = (vf- vi) / t → vf = at + vi

vf = (-9.81m/s2(1.5s) + 0m/s

vf = -15 m/s → 15 m/s [down]

500

You use a force of 500N to push a truck, but it doesnt move. How much work is done?

W = Fd

W = (500N)(0m)

W = 0 J
