Kinematics

Front

What is the formula for calculating velocity?

Back

Velocity (v) = displacement (d) / time (t)

Front

How do you calculate average speed?

Back

Average speed = total distance traveled / total time taken

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is a scalar quantity (magnitude only), while velocity is a vector quantity (magnitude and direction).

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time.

Front

What are the units of acceleration?

Back

The units of acceleration are meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

How do you determine the velocity of an object in motion?

Back

Velocity can be determined by measuring the displacement of the object over a specific time interval.

Front

What does it mean for an object to be at rest?

Back

An object is at rest if its position does not change with respect to a reference point over time.

Front

What is the significance of a negative acceleration?

Back

Negative acceleration indicates that an object is slowing down or decelerating.

Front

How can you find the relative velocity between two objects?

Back

Relative velocity is found by subtracting the velocity of one object from the velocity of another.

Front

What is the relationship between distance, speed, and time?

Back

Distance = Speed × Time (d = s × t).
