SVA Review

What is speed?

• how far you go
• how much distance is covered over a period of time
• how fast you accelerate
• the change in the location of a object

What is velocity?

• the quickness of an object
• the location of an object
• acceleration
• speed in a specific direction

The correct equation to calculate velocity is

• distance/time
• time/distance
• distance x time
• distance/time²

Can be measured in meters per second (m/s)

• Distance
• Time
• velocity
• Acceleration

How far will a person go if they jog for 2 hours at a speed of 12 km/hr?

• 6 km
• 0.5 km
• 10 km
• 24 km

A distance (position) vs. time graph shows an object's

• frame of reference
• velocity
• acceleration
• favorite food

On a distance-versus-time graph, a straight line ALWAYS indicates that an object’s velocity is _____.

• constant
• zero
• increasing
• decreasing

Change in velocity over a given period of time is

• velocity
• motion
• speed
• acceleration

On a distance vs. time graph, the steeper the slope _____

• the slower the velocity
• the faster the velocity
• less acceleration
• greater acceleration

Slope is equal to 

• rise/run
• run/rise
• rise + run
• rise - run
