Force and Motion Review

What is the difference between distance and displacement?

• Distance is the force exerted on an object, while displacement is the momentum of the object.

• Distance is the rate of change of velocity, while displacement is the resistance to a change in motion.

• Distance is the speed of an object, while displacement is the direction of its motion.

• Distance is how far an object has moved, while displacement is the difference in starting and ending point.

What is the formula for calculating average speed?

• Total time traveled divided by total distance traveled

• Total time traveled multiplied by total distance traveled

• Total distance traveled multiplied by total time traveled

• Total distance traveled divided by total time traveled

What does the slope on a distance vs. time graph represent?

• Acceleration of the object

• Speed of the object

• Direction of the object's motion

• Inertia of the object

What is the rate of change of velocity known as?

• Inertia

• Speed

• Acceleration

• Distance

What is the Law of Conservation of Momentum?

• Momentum is not affected by collisions

• Momentum is gained or lost during a collision

• Momentum is transferred during a collision

• Momentum is doubled during a collision

What is the force that resists a change in motion caused by two objects in contact with one another?

• Rolling friction

• Air resistance

• Friction

• Inertia

What is the difference between balanced and unbalanced forces?

• Balanced forces have a net force of 0 N, while unbalanced forces have a net force of 1 N

• Balanced forces cause a change in motion, while unbalanced forces do not

• Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, while unbalanced forces are not

• Balanced forces are always greater than unbalanced forces
