Front

What is the definition of Time?

Back

Time is a measure of the duration of events, typically measured in seconds (s).

Front

What is Motion?

Back

Motion is the change in position of an object with respect to a reference point.

Front

What is Velocity?

Back

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

Front

What does the position of an object depend on?

Back

The position of an object and its motion depends on the reference point.

Front

How do you calculate Speed?

Back

Speed is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken.

Front

What is the formula for Speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

If an object travels 20 meters in 4 seconds, what is its speed?

Back

5 m/s.

Front

What is the unit of Speed?

Back

The unit of speed is meters per second (m/s).

Front

What is Distance?

Back

Distance is the total length of the path traveled by an object.

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).
