7.7A calculating speed vocabulary and practice

Multiple Choice

What is the difference between distance and displacement as shown in Leadbelly's treasure map?

• Distance is the shortest path between two points, while displacement is the total path traveled.

• Distance is the total path traveled, while displacement is the shortest path between two points.

• Distance and displacement are always equal.

• Distance is measured in seconds, displacement in meters.

Multiple Choice

Which formula correctly represents how to calculate speed?

• Speed = Distance / Time

• Speed = Time / Distance

• Speed = Distance × Time

• Speed = Time × Distance

Multiple Choice

Which formula correctly represents how to calculate Distance?

• Distance = Speed * Time

• Distance = Speed / Time

• Distance = Time * Distance^2

• Distance = Time / Speed

Multiple Choice

Which of the following formulas can be used to solve for time?

• Time = Speed × Distance

• Time = Speed / Distance

• Time = Distance / Speed

• Time = Time × Speed

Multiple Choice

Which version of the speed formula should you use to find speed when distance and time are known?

• Speed = Distance / Time

• Time = Distance / Speed

• Distance = Speed x Time

• Speed = Time / Distance
