Units and measurement
The units for this quantity are meters per seconds squared
What is acceleration
This is the scalar version of displacement
What is distance
The distance you travel if you go at a constant speed of 4m/s for 20 seconds.
What is 80m.
This quantity is what you get from the slope of a distance vs time graph.
What is speed/velocity
A car driven east with increasing speed. What direction is the acceleration?
East
This is what you get if you convert 100cm/second into meters per second
What is 1m/s
The distance you would travel if you went 300 meters north and then 400 meters east.
What is 700 meters
Your acceleration if you start from rest then speed up to 20m/s over a time of 6 seconds.
What is 3.33 m/s^2
This what constant positive velocity looks like on a distance vs time graph.
What is (ms hall gonna draw it)
A car driven north with decreasing speed. What direction is the acceleration?
South
This is the unit you get by multiplying v times t
What is meters
The magnitude of displacement when you make a full lap around a 400m track
What is zero
Your acceleration if you start at 10m/s and speed up to 45m/s over a distance of 15m.
What is 64.1 m/s^2
This quantity is found using the slope of a velocity vs time graph
What is acceleration
A ball rolling downhill accelerates from rest at a rate of 5m/s^2. If it rolls 40m, how much time passes?
4 seconds
This is what you get when you convert 200km/min into meters per second.
What is 3,333 meters per second.
This is your displacement if you travel 10m north, 30m west, and then 5m south.
What is 30.4 m northwest
The distance you cover if you have a starting velocity of 50m/s west and slow down at rate of 2m/s^2 east for 4 seconds.
What is 184m
A straight line that is parallel to the X-axis on a velocity vs time graph would represent this type of motion
What is constant velocity or zero acceleration
A car travels 200m North and 100m East. This trip takes 10s. A student says "The average velocity of the car is 30m/s Northeast." Is the students correct? Explain your answer.
No, because we cannot add north and east. We have to use pythagorean theorem to find the displacement first.
This is the unit I would get if I found the area under a distance vs time graph (hint: the unit is meaningless)
What is ms or meter seconds
You swim 5m/s east across a river that has a current of 2m/s south. This is your total velocity
What is 5.4m/s south east
The distance you cover if you accelerate from 30m/s East to 5m/s west in 5 seconds.
What is 62.5m
This quantity is represented but the area under a velocity vs time graph
What is distance/displacement
Give me an example of motion where the displacement is greater than the distance travelled.
Trick question! THERE ISN'T ONE. HAHAHAHAHAHA
