S7 Third Quarter Monthly Exam Review

Which of the following is defined as speed with direction?

• Acceleration

• Distance

• Displacement

• Velocity

The change in position over an interval of time is called ______________.

• Displacement

• Distance

• Motion

• Time

Louie was asked by her teacher how to solve the speed of an object. She said that to solve for the speed of an object, one must multiply the distance travelled by the recorded time of travel. Do you think her process is correct?

• Yes, because multiplication is the way to solve for speed.

• Yes, because she had all the needed data like distance and time.

• No, because in solving for speed one must divide the distance travelled by the recorded time of travel.

• No, because in solving for speed one must add the recorded time and the distance travelled.

Which refers to the length of the entire path travelled by an object?

• Displacement

• Distance

• Motion

• Time

Which refers to the shortest distance between to object's two positions?

• Displacement

• Distance

• Motion

• Time

Which of the following describes displacement?

• It has direction only.

• It has magnitude only.

• It lacks magnitude and direction.

• It has both the magnitude and direction.

Her science teacher asked Jenelene if an object's displacement could be longer than the distance. She answered no. Is Jenelene's answer, correct?

• Yes, displacement can be longer to the distance.

• No, displacement is the total length covered by an object in motion.

• Yes, displacement is the longest length between two object's point of origin and its point of destination.

• Yes, displacement is the shortest length between two object's point of origin and its point of destination.

Which of the following is true about an object that travels 5 meters to the left, then another 5 meters to the right?

• The displacement of the object is equal to 10 meters.

• The displacement of the object is equal to 10 meters, right.

• The total distance travelled by the object is equal to 10 meters.

• The total distance travelled by the object is equal to 10 meters, right.

Which of the following describes the distance covered by an object?

• 5s

• 8m

• 10 m/s

• 12 m, North

All of the following are the materials used in measuring the distance covered by an object EXCEPT __.

• Ruler

• Timer

• Meter Stick

• Measuring Tape
