What is the formula to calculate speed?

• S = t/d
• S = d/t
• S = d x t
• S = t x d

What is velocity?

• the quickness of an object
• the location of an object
• acceleration
• speed in a specific direction

Total distance an object travels with direction.

• Displacement

• Distance

• Path

• Velocity

Does upward movement of an object have a negative or positive velocity?

• Negative

• Positive

What is the correct unit for velocity in kinematics?

• m/min

• mi/hr

• d/t

• m/s

What is the correct unit for acceleration in kinematics?

• m/s

• m/min²

• m/s/t

• m/s²

The highest point of an object's vertical motion where it changes direction to come back down.

• Final velocity

• Apex

• Displacement

• Height

Change in velocity each second that goes by

• Velocity

• Displacement

• Acceleration

• Apex

Any change in motion must be initiated by a(n) ________________ force.

• Balanced

• Contact

• Field

• Unbalanced

The law of inertia states that...

• any object with mass also has inertia

• for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force.

• objects will remain in their current state unless acted on by a net external force.

• the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the object.
