3rd Quarter Jeopardy - Science 7

Which of the following quantity considered both magnitude and direction?

• Time

• Speed

• Velocity

• Distance

What is the difference between distance and displacement?

• Distance considers time, displacement does not.

• Distance considers direction, displacement does not.

• Displacement considers direction, distance does not.

• Displacement is a scalar quantity; distance is a vector quantity.

• km/hr

• m/s2

• cm

• kg

It is a scalar quantity that refers to "how fast an object is moving."

It is a vector quantity that refers to "the rate at which an object changes its position."

What is the first step in solving sample problems?

• Substitute the given in values.

• Identify the given in the problem.

• Identify what is required to find in the problem.
