Front

What is distance in motion?

Back

Distance is the total length of the path traveled by an object, regardless of direction.

Front

What does a graph showing motion typically represent?

Back

A motion graph represents how an object's position changes over time.

Front

What is speed?

Back

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, often measured in meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/h).

Front

What does it mean when an object is at rest?

Back

An object is at rest when it is not moving and its position does not change over time.

Front

How can you tell if an object is moving away from a starting point?

Back

An object is moving away from a starting point if its position increases over time on a motion graph.

Front

What does it mean when a graph shows a flat line?

Back

A flat line on a motion graph indicates that the object is not moving; it is at rest.

Front

What is the significance of a steep slope on a motion graph?

Back

A steep slope indicates that the object is moving quickly; the steeper the slope, the faster the motion.

Front

What does it mean when an object changes direction?

Back

Changing direction means the object is moving towards a different point than it was previously, which can be shown on a motion graph.

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What does it mean when a vehicle applies brakes?

Back

Applying brakes means the vehicle is slowing down, which can be represented by a downward slope on a motion graph.
