Velocity and Acceleration Quiz

What is the formula to calculate velocity?

• Acceleration multiplied by time

• Distance divided by time

• Change in position divided by change in time

• Mass divided by time

What is the SI unit of velocity?

• km/h

• cm/s

• m/min

• m/s

A car travels at a constant velocity of 60 km/h for 2 hours. What is the total distance traveled by the car?

• 120 km

• 30 km

• 150 km

• 90 km

What is the formula to calculate acceleration?

• change in velocity divided by time taken

• change in position divided by time taken

• change in speed divided by time taken

• change in distance divided by time taken

What is the SI unit of acceleration?

• m/s²

• cm/s

• m/s

• km/h

A car accelerates from rest to a velocity of 30 m/s in 5 seconds. What is its acceleration?

• 15 m/s^2

• 3 m/s^2

• 10 m/s^2

• 6 m/s^2

What is the difference between velocity and speed?

• Velocity and speed are the same thing.

• Velocity is a scalar quantity, while speed is a vector quantity.

• Velocity refers to the rate of motion, while speed includes both speed and direction.

• Velocity includes both speed and direction, while speed only refers to the rate of motion.
