Distance Displacement Speed Velocity Acceleration

What is the significance of the area under a speed-time graph?

• It represents the total distance traveled.

• It indicates the speed of an object at a specific time.

• It shows the acceleration of an object over time.

• It reflects the time taken to travel a certain distance.

Is speed a scalar or vector quantity?

• Speed is a vector quantity.

• Speed is a scalar quantity.

• Speed is neither scalar nor vector.

• Speed is a complex quantity.

What is displacement?

• The total distance traveled by an object regardless of direction.

• The shortest distance from the initial to the final position of an object, including direction.

• The distance an object moves in a straight line without considering direction.

• The average speed of an object over a period of time.

What is the formula for calculating speed?

• distance/time

• time/distance

• distance + time

• distance - time

What is the difference between distance and displacement?

• Distance is a vector quantity that considers direction, while displacement is a scalar quantity representing the total path length traveled.

• Distance is the total path length traveled, while displacement is a scalar quantity that does not consider direction.

• Distance is a scalar quantity representing the total path length traveled, while displacement is a vector quantity that considers direction.

• Distance and displacement are the same and can be used interchangeably.

Is velocity a scalar or vector quantity?

• Scalar quantity

• Vector quantity

• Neither scalar nor vector

• Both scalar and vector

How do you calculate average speed?

• By multiplying total distance by total time

• By dividing total distance by total time

• By adding total distance and total time

• By taking the square root of total distance

What is velocity?

• Velocity is the speed of an object in a specific direction.

• Velocity is the distance traveled by an object over time.

• Velocity is the rate of change of an object's mass.

• Velocity is the total energy of an object in motion.

What is the relationship between speed and time in a distance-time graph?

• The slope represents distance; a steeper slope indicates a longer distance.

• The slope represents speed; a steeper slope indicates a higher speed.

• The slope represents time; a steeper slope indicates a shorter time.

• The slope represents acceleration; a steeper slope indicates a higher acceleration.

What does a negative acceleration indicate?

• The object is speeding up.

• The object is moving at a constant speed.

• The object is slowing down.

• The object is changing direction.
