Physics Semester 1 Final

Front

What is speed in physics?

Back

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

Front

What does a steeper line on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

A steeper line indicates a higher speed, meaning the object is moving faster.

Front

What is the Scientific Method?

Back

The Scientific Method is a systematic process for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge.

Front

What is the last step of the Scientific Method?

Back

The last step is to report the findings, which includes sharing results and conclusions.

Front

What is net force?

Back

Net force is the total force acting on an object, taking into account all the individual forces acting on it.

Front

How do you calculate net force?

Back

Net force is calculated by adding all the forces acting on an object, considering their direction.

Front

What happens when the net force on an object is zero?

Back

When the net force is zero, the object remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity.

Front

What is inertia?

Back

Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.

Front

What is the formula for calculating force?

Back

Force is calculated using the formula: F = m * a, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, typically measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).
