General Motion LT1

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object. It can be positive (increasing speed) or negative (decreasing speed).

Front

True/False: An object moving in a straight line at a constant speed is accelerating.

Back

False

Front

What does an acceleration of -5 m/s² indicate about an object's motion?

Back

It indicates that the object is decreasing its velocity.

Front

True/False: A car traveling at a constant speed on a circular track is accelerating.

Back

True

Front

What is the definition of velocity?

Back

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

Front

True/False: A cat running at a constant speed but changing direction is not accelerating.

Back

False

Front

What does 10 m/s² represent in the context of falling objects?

Back

It represents the acceleration due to gravity.

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 uniform motion?

Back

Uniform motion occurs when an object travels equal distances in equal intervals of time.

Front

True/False: An object can be in motion even if its speed is constant.

Back

True
