Front

What is motion?

Back

Motion is the change in position of an object relative to a reference point.

Front

What is the unit of measurement for speed?

Back

The unit of measurement for speed is meters per second (m/s).

Front

What does a speed-time graph represent?

Back

A speed-time graph represents how speed changes over time.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object.

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What does it mean if an object is at rest?

Back

An object is at rest if its position does not change relative to a reference point.

Front

What is a frame of reference?

Back

A frame of reference is a system for specifying the precise location of objects in space and 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 does a negative acceleration indicate?

Back

Negative acceleration indicates that an object is slowing down.

Front

What is the formula for calculating acceleration?

Back

Acceleration = (Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) / Time.
