Linear Motion

Select the correct definition of displacement

• the straight-line distance between the start and finish positions of a moving object

• the diagonal distance between the start and finish positions of a moving object

• the straight-line distance between the middle and finish positions of a moving object

• the straight-line distance of a moving object

Rearrange v = u + at for u

• $u\ =\ at\ +v$

• $u\ =\ at\ -\ v$

• $u\ =\ v\ -\ at$

• $u\ =\ \frac{v}{at}$

CCSS.8.EE.C.7B

What is the correct symbol and UoM for displacement

• Displacement (s) measured in metres (m)

• Displacement (d) measured in centimetres (cm)

• Displacement (s) measured in inches (in)

• Displacement (x) measured in meters (m)

Why is it important to check the UoM of each parameter?

• Because the formulas only work if all values are in the correct units

• Because each parameter has a base unit

• Because it looks good

• It doesn't matter
