100

Is this balanced or unbalanced?

Unbalanced 

It will move left

100

Would you add or subtract the forces to find the net force in this diagram?

Subtract

because they are going in opposite directions

100

Bobby eats a sandwich and then runs a mile. What energy transformations occurred?

Chemical to Mechanical


(digestion is chemical and the energy is used to move your body which would be kinetic/Mechanical)

100

The following are units of measurement for ______

Mph

m/s

km/h

Speed

100

What is the formula for speed?

distance / time

100

What does this graph show? Substitute distance for speed on the y-axis.

Constant Speed

100

What is the average speed of this graph?

2 miles/min

100

What type of energy is potential and kinetic energy?

(think MRS. CHEN)

Mechanical Energy

200

Is this balanced or unbalanced?

(The size of the arrows represents the magnitude of the force)

Balanced

(Will not move because the arrows are of equal size)

200

Would you add or subtract the forces in this diagram to find the net force?

Add

Because they are both going in the same direction (Left)

200

A lamp was plugged into the wall and produced a bright light. What energy transformation occurred?

Electrical to Radiant (light)

200

What is velocity?

Speed with direction

200

A woman ran 16km in 2 hours. What was her speed?

8 km/h


16km / 2hr = 8 km/h

200

What does this graph show? Substitute distance for velocity on the y-axis.

Stopped (no motion)

200

What is the average speed at 5 hours?

0.4 mph


After = At

Distance/time = speed

2/5= 0.4m/s

200

Potential energy is determined by mass and _____

Position

300

Is this balanced or unbalanced?

(the size of the arrow represents the magnitude of the force applied)

Unbalanced

(object will move down in the direction of the greater force applied)

300

What is the net force and direction of the box?


0N  and it will not move 

(balanced)

300

Solar panels are being used to power a home. What energy transformations occurred?

Radiant to Electrical

300

True or false

A plane flying 5m West is an example of velocity

False


It would have to be 5m/s West for it to be velocity. 5m is not speed. Velocity must be speed and direction

300

A man ran 3km in 30 minutes. How fast was he traveling in km/min?

0.1 km/min

3km divided by 30 min = 0.1 km/min

300

Which segment represents no motion? Substitute distance for speed on the y-axis.  

A-B, C-D, E-F


300

What is the average speed at 4s?


2m/s


Average speed is total distance/total time

8m/4s = 2m/s

300

Kinetic energy is determined by mass and _____

Speed

400

Is this balanced or unbalanced?

(size of the arrow represents the magnitude of the for applied)

Unbalanced

(object will move left because that is the direction that the greater force is being applied)

400

What is the net force of this box and which direction will it move?


40 N to the Right

(In the direction of the force applied)

400

Any energy transformations that involve splitting atoms will result in what type of energy?

Nuclear Energy

400

True or False

In order to accelerate you have to be either speeding up or slowing down (changing speed) only

False

Acceleration is changing speed OR direction. A car traveling at a constant speed will be accelerating when it turns

400

it took a car 30 minutes to travel a distance of 40 km. At what speed was the car traveling?

1.3km/min


40km / 30min = 1.3 km/min

400

Describe the motion at each point on the graph. Pay attention because this is an 8th grade question.

A - constant speed

B - decelerating

C - slower constant speed

400

What is the average speed at 1s?

10 m/s


Distance/time = speed

10m / 1s = 10m/s

400

Which point has the highest potential energy?

A

500

Is this balanced or unbalanced?

(size of the arrow represents that magnitude of the force applied)

Unbalanced

(object will move right because that is the direction that the greater force is being applied)

500

What is the net force of the plane and which direction will it move?


15 N and the plane will move left

(in the direction that the greater force is applied)

500

What does the MRS. CENT acronym stand for?

Mechanical, Radiant, Sound, Chemical, Electrical, Nuclear, Thermal

500

True or False

If the blue car and red car are both traveling at a constant speed of 50 mph, that means they have the same speed and the same velocity

False

They are going in opposite directions so their speed is the same but velocity will be different

500

A bike rider traveled 11.25 km in 2 hours and 15 minutes. At what speed was he traveling in km/h?

5 km/h


convert minutes into hours. 11.25km/2.25hr = 5km/h

500

Describe the motion at each point of this graph. Be careful with this one because it is an 8th grade question.

B - Accelerating

C - Decelerating

D - Stopped again (0m/s)

500
