Speed, Velocity, Distance, Displacement

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration due to gravity?

Back

Objects with greater mass have greater accelerations due to gravity.

Front

If a speed boat is traveling at 100 km/h, how long will it take to cover 115 km?

Back

1.15 hours

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 is displacement?

Back

Displacement is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of an object, along with the direction.

Front

How do you calculate distance traveled if speed and time are known?

Back

Distance = Speed x Time

Front

What is the unit of speed in the metric system?

Back

Meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/h).

Front

What does it mean if an object has a constant speed?

Back

It means the object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time.

Front

What is the difference between total distance and displacement?

Back

Total distance is the entire path traveled, while displacement is the straight-line distance from start to finish.

Front

What is the formula for calculating velocity?

Back

Velocity = Displacement / Time
