2024 IPC Fall Semester Exam Review - Physics

Front

What is speed?

Back

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

Front

How do you calculate speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is renewable energy?

Back

Renewable energy is energy that is collected from resources that are naturally replenished, such as sunlight, wind, and water.

Front

What is the benefit of using renewable energy?

Back

It reduces greenhouse gas emissions and helps combat climate change.

Front

What is velocity?

Back

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

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is a scalar quantity (only magnitude), while velocity is a vector quantity (magnitude and direction).

Front

What does it mean for an object to move at a constant speed?

Back

It means the object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time without changing its speed.

Front

What is a series circuit?

Back

A series circuit is a type of electrical circuit where the current flows through each component in a single path.

Front

What happens to the current in a series circuit?

Back

The current remains the same throughout all components in a series circuit.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, typically measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).
