Motion P2 Assessment

A car moves in a straight line for 10 seconds at a constant speed, then stops for 5 seconds, and finally moves back to its starting point in 10 seconds. Which type of motion best describes the car's movement during the first 10 seconds?

• Oscillatory motion

• Uniform motion

• Non-uniform motion

• Rotational motion

A ball is thrown vertically upward. Which type of motion does the ball exhibit as it rises and falls back down?

• Circular motion

• Linear motion

• Oscillatory motion

• Random motion

Given a distance-time graph that shows a straight line sloping upwards, what does this indicate about the object's motion?

• The object is at rest.

• The object is moving at a constant speed.

• The object is accelerating.

• The object is decelerating.

If a velocity-time graph shows a horizontal line above the time axis, what does this tell you about the object's motion?

• The object is speeding up.

• The object is moving at a constant velocity.

• The object is slowing down.

• The object is at rest.
