Motion

Front

What is the definition of displacement?

Back

Displacement is the distance and direction of an object's change in position from a starting point.

Front

How do you calculate the velocity of an object given its momentum and mass?

Back

Velocity can be calculated using the formula: velocity = momentum / mass.

Front

What does a graph with a straight line indicate about an object's motion?

Back

A straight line on a graph indicates that the object is moving at a constant speed.

Front

What is the unit of measurement for acceleration?

Back

The unit for acceleration is meters per second squared (m/s²).

Front

How do you calculate the speed of an object?

Back

Speed is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken.

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving, while velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction.

Front

What is the formula for calculating displacement?

Back

Displacement = Final Position - Initial Position.

Front

What does it mean if an object has a constant speed?

Back

It means the object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time.

Front

What is the relationship between acceleration and velocity?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.
