Linear Motion

Carlos lives 100 meters from his friend's house. What is his average speed if he reaches his friends house in 50 seconds?
Distance= 100 m
time = 50 seconds

• 1 m/s
• 2 m/s
• 3 m/s
• 4 m/s

True or False
It is possible for two objects to have the same speed but different velocities

• true
• false

The location of a place or an object is called its....

• position
• motion
• speed
• reference point

A car goes from 0 m/s to 60 m/s in a period of 5 seconds find its acceleration.

• 10 m/s^2
• 12 m/s
• 12 m/s^2
• 11 m/s

which part of the line shows the constant POSITION?

• E to F
• C to D
• all of above
• A to B

Speed =

• distance / time
• time / distance
• distance * time

Change in speed over a given period of time is

• velocity
• motion
• speed
• acceleration

What is the SI unit for acceleration?

• m/s
• m
• m/s²
• s

What is the SI unit for speed

• Km
• s
• m/s
• m/s²
