CA Review 4

Front

What is the formula for Final Velocity (Vf) when acceleration is involved?

Back

Vf = Vi + a*t

Front

What does a line on a graph showing constant speed away from the starting point indicate?

Back

Moving away from starting point at a constant speed.

Front

What does a line on a graph showing constant speed returning to the starting position indicate?

Back

Constant speed; returning to start position.

Front

What does a line on a graph showing acceleration indicate?

Back

Increasing speed (acceleration).

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object.

Front

What does a flat line on a distance-time graph represent?

Back

The object is stationary.

Front

How do you calculate acceleration?

Back

Acceleration = (Vf - Vi) / t

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 does a negative slope on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

The object is moving back towards the starting point.

Front

What is the unit of acceleration in the metric system?

Back

Meters per second squared (m/s²).
