Velocity, Speed or Acceleration Nowall

Front

What is velocity?

Back

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

Front

What is speed?

Back

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, calculated as distance divided by time (d/t).

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

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

Front

What happens to the velocity of an object in circular motion?

Back

The velocity of an object in circular motion is constantly changing due to the change in 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 is a vector?

Back

A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction.

Front

What is a scalar?

Back

A scalar is a quantity that has only magnitude and no direction.

Front

How do you calculate speed?

Back

Speed is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken (Speed = Distance/Time).

Front

What is negative acceleration?

Back

Negative acceleration, also known as deceleration, occurs when an object slows down.

Front

What does it mean for an object to be in uniform motion?

Back

An object is in uniform motion if it travels equal distances in equal intervals of time.
