Speed, Velocity and Acceleration Test Review

speed of an object in a particular direction

• motion

• velocity

• speed

• acceleration

when an object changes its position compared to a reference point.

• acceleration

• speed

• motion

• reference point

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

Basic SI unit of length or distance is:

• Meter

• Seconds

• Grams

• Minutes

Which of the following choices is an example of VELOCITY?

• 35 mph

• 35 meters

• 35 mph EAST

• 35 minutes

The speed of an object at one instant of time is called:

• Average Speed

• Instantaneous Speed

• Velocity

• Acceleration

The rate at which velocity changes and can be seen by speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction:

• Speed

• Velocity

• Acceleration

• Slope

To calculate speed:

• Speed = time + distance

• Speed = time X distance

• Speed = distance X distance

• Speed = distance ➗ time
