“It is the shortest distance from the starting point to the ending point” this is the definition of:

• Displacement

• Acceleration

• Speed

What is the difference between a vector and a scalar?

• One has magnitude

• Both have magnitude but one is the opposite of the other

• They both have magnitude but vectors have direction as well

Which of the following pairs of terms do not have a vector-scalar relationship?

• Displacement and distance

• Velocity and speed

• Acceleration and gravity

When we say that a problem is constant acceleration, we mean that…

• Velocity doesn’t change

• Distance doesn’t change

• Acceleration doesn’t change

What are the ways in which constant acceleration can occur?

• Freefall

• Breaking

• Both a and b
