Motion: Uniform Motion

What is uniform motion?

• An object rotating in a circular motion.

• An object moving in a zigzag pattern at varying speeds.

• An object accelerating in a straight line.

• An object traveling in a straight line at a constant speed.

How can you represent uniform motion on a distance-time graph?

• Horizontal line

• Vertical line

• Straight line with constant slope

• Curved line with varying slope

What is the equation for calculating speed in uniform motion?

• speed = distance / time

• speed = distance - time

• speed = distance x time

• speed = time / distance

In uniform motion, what is the relationship between distance and time?

• No relationship

• Directly proportional

• Inverse proportional

• Exponential relationship

Can an object in uniform motion change its speed?

• No

• Depends on the object

• Only if it accelerates

• Yes

What is the difference between uniform motion and non-uniform motion?

• In uniform motion, the object changes speed frequently, while in non-uniform motion, the object maintains a constant speed.

• Uniform motion only occurs in one-dimensional space, while non-uniform motion can occur in any dimension.

• Uniform motion involves objects moving in a zigzag pattern, while non-uniform motion involves objects moving in a straight line.

• In uniform motion, the object moves at a constant speed in a straight line, covering equal distances in equal intervals of time. In non-uniform motion, the object moves at varying speeds or changes direction, covering unequal distances in equal intervals of time.

Give an example of an object in uniform motion.

• A boat floating on a lake

• A plane flying in the sky

• A train moving on tracks

• A car traveling on a highway.

How is velocity related to uniform motion?

• Velocity is the rate of change of position with respect to time, and in uniform motion, the object moves at varying speeds.

• Velocity is the rate of change of position with respect to time, and in uniform motion, the object moves in a straight line with constant speed.

• Velocity is the rate of change of position with respect to time, and in uniform motion, the object moves in a circular path.

• Velocity is the rate of change of position with respect to time, and in uniform motion, the object moves in a zigzag pattern.

Explain the concept of constant velocity in uniform motion.

• Constant velocity implies the object is moving at different speeds throughout the motion.

• Constant velocity in uniform motion refers to an object moving in a straight line at a consistent speed without any acceleration, covering equal distances in equal intervals of time.

• Uniform motion involves the object changing direction constantly.

• Constant velocity means the object is accelerating at a constant rate.

What are the key characteristics of uniform motion?

• Constant velocity, no change in direction, acceleration

• Variable velocity, constant direction, no acceleration

• Constant velocity, change in direction, no acceleration

• Constant velocity, no change in direction, no acceleration
