Speed, Velocity, Acceleration

Front

What is speed?

Back

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

Front

What is velocity?

Back

Velocity is the speed of an object in a specific direction, typically measured in meters per second (m/s).

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

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

Front

How is speed calculated?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

How is velocity calculated?

Back

Velocity = Speed + Direction.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Velocity has a direction associated with it, while speed does not.

Front

What does a constant speed indicate about an object's motion?

Back

A constant speed indicates that the object is moving the same distance in equal intervals of time.

Front

What does it mean if an object is accelerating?

Back

It means the object's velocity is changing over time, either increasing or decreasing.

Front

What is the formula for calculating acceleration?

Back

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

Front

What is uniform acceleration?

Back

Uniform acceleration occurs when an object's acceleration is constant over time.
