Position, Velocity and Acceleration Self Test

_____________ is the measurement between two positions.

• Distance

• Velocity

• Speed

• Acceleration

The (SI) units for acceleration is:

• m/s/s

• m/s

• m

• h

(Select all that apply) Acceleration occurs when:

• Speeding up

• Slowing down

• Changing direction

• speed is constant

The slope of a position-time graph gives you:

• Displacement

• Velocity

• Acceleration

• Position

The slope of a velocity-time graph, gives you:

• Position

• Speed

• Acceleration

• Distance
