Chapter 4 Study Guide

What is Speed?

• the state in which one object’s distance from another is changing.
• a measurement that describes any object in motion.
• the speed of an object at one instant of time.
• the overall rate of speed at which an object moves.

What is Motion?

• the overall rate of speed at which an object moves.
• the speed of an object at one instant of time.
• a measurement that describes any object in motion.
• the state in which one object’s distance from another is changing.

What is Instantaneous Speed?

• the state in which one object’s distance from another is changing.
• the overall rate of speed at which an object moves.
• the speed of an object at one instant of time.
• a measurement that describes any object in motion.

What is Average Speed?

• a measurement that describes any object in motion.
• the overall rate of speed at which an object moves.
• the state in which one object’s distance from another is changing.
• the speed of an object at one instant of time.

What is Velocity?

• speed in a given direction.
• the overall rate of speed at which an object moves.
• the speed of an object at one instant of time.
• a measurement that describes any object in motion.

What is Slope?

• The steepness of a graph line.
• the speed of an object at one instant of time.
• a measurement that describes any object in motion.
• speed in a given direction.

What is Acceleration?

• the rate at which speed changes
• the rate at which velocity changes
• the rate at which time changes
• the rate at which distance changes

What is Force?

• A push of pull
• Rate at which the pull changes
• Ability to do work or cause change
• Ability to stop objects in motion

What is the SI unit for Force?

• W
• Kg
• s
• N

What is Net Force?

• The combination of all the energy on an object.
• The combination of all the speed of an object.
• The combination of all the forces on an object.
• The combination of all the velocity of an object.
