Front

What happens to the force required to accelerate an object as its mass increases?

Back

The more mass an object has, the more force it takes to accelerate it.

Front

Back

A convergent boundary is where two tectonic plates move towards each other.

Front

What is the definition of velocity?

Back

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

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is scalar (magnitude only), while velocity is vector (magnitude and direction).

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

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

Front

What does a steep slope on a distance-time graph represent?

Back

A steep slope indicates a high speed.
