IPS SEMESTER 1 FINAL EXAM STUDY GAME: FRONTIER

Front

What is terminal velocity?

Back

The highest velocity a falling object will reach when the force of gravity is balanced by the drag force of the air.

Front

How do you calculate distance traveled given speed and time?

Back

Distance = Speed × Time. For example, if a car travels at 70 miles per hour for 2 hours, the distance traveled is 140 miles.

Front

What are balanced forces?

Back

Forces that are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

The rate of change of velocity of an object. It can be calculated using the formula: Acceleration = (Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) / Time.

Front

How can you determine who is faster in a race?

Back

Compare the time taken to cover the same distance. The one who takes less time is faster.

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass.

Front

What is gravity?

Back

A force that attracts two bodies towards each other, commonly experienced as the force that pulls objects towards the Earth.

Front

What are unbalanced forces?

Back

Forces that are not equal and opposite, resulting in a change in the motion of an object.

Front

What is the significance of net force?

Back

Net force is the overall force acting on an object after all the forces are combined. It determines the object's acceleration.
