• motion

• velocity

• speed

• acceleration

total distance traveled divided by total time taken to travel that distance

• velocity

• motion

• acceleration

• average speed

the rate at which speed or velocity changes

• acceleration

• average speed

• motion

• reference point

The formula for calculating speed is...(x means multiply; / means divide)

• time x distance

• distance x speed

• distance / time

• time / distance

Speed equals distance divided by

• time
• velocity
• size
• motion

When you know both the speed and direction of an object's motion, you know the

• average speed of the object
• acceleration of the object
• distance the object has traveled
• velocity of the object

A train that travels 100 kilometers in 4 hours is traveling at what average speed?

• 50 km/h
• 100 km/h
• 2 km/h
• 25 km/h

If a bicyclist travels 30 km in 2 hours, her average speed is

• 30 km/h
• 60 km/h
• 15 km/h
• 2 km/h

A cyclist travels 20 km in  30 minutes. Her average speed is (10 km/h).

• True
• False: 40 km/h

You calculate acceleration by ..?

• subtracting starting speed from ending speed and dividing by time

• subtracting ending speed from starting speed and dividing by time

• subtracting distance by direction

• Dividing initial speed by final speed
