Distance Time Graphs w/ Speed, Velocity, Distance Calculations

Front

What causes an object to move?

Back

Unbalanced forces cause an object to move.

Front

What happens when two teams pull with the same amount of force?

Back

They will not move at all.

Front

Velocity is defined as:

Back

Speed + direction.

Front

What is Newton's 3rd law of motion?

Back

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Front

If a family travels at 60 miles per hour for 3 hours, how far do they travel?

Back

180 miles.

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is distance traveled over time, while velocity includes direction.

Front

What does a flat line on a distance-time graph represent?

Back

The object is at rest.

Front

What does a steeper slope on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

The object is moving faster.

Front

How do you calculate distance using speed and time?

Back

Distance = Speed x Time.
