S8p3 (Speed, Velocity, Acceleration)

Front

What is speed?

Back

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, typically measured in meters per second (m/s).

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time

Front

What two factors does speed depend on?

Back

Speed depends on distance and time.

Front

What is velocity?

Back

Velocity is the speed of an object in a specific direction.

Front

How does acceleration differ from speed?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time, while speed is the distance traveled per unit of time.

Front

What is the formula for calculating acceleration?

Back

Acceleration = (Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) / Time

Front

What is a reference point in motion?

Back

A reference point is a stationary object used to determine the position of a moving object.

Front

What is the difference between constant speed and variable speed?

Back

Constant speed means an object travels the same distance in equal intervals of time, while variable speed means the distance traveled changes over time.

Front

What does it mean if an object is accelerating?

Back

An object is accelerating if it is increasing its speed, decreasing its speed, or changing direction.
