Motion Test CP

Front

What is the distance traveled by a runner who completes a lap around a 1 mile track and returns to the starting position?

Back

1 mile

Front

A skateboarder is traveling at 12 m/s and comes to a stop in 2.0 seconds. What is the skateboarder's acceleration?

Back

-6 m/s²

Front

An indicator that orients you when describing motion is called what?

Back

Reference point

Front

What does the slope of a distance-time graph represent?

Back

Speed

Front

Which statement about an object with zero acceleration is true?

Back

The object is moving at a constant speed.

Front

Define 'motion' in the context of physics.

Back

Motion is the change in position of an object over 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

How do you calculate the distance traveled if you know speed and time?

Back

Distance = Speed × Time

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).
