The video tutorial introduces the concepts of speed and velocity, explaining how they describe motion. Speed is a scalar quantity indicating how fast an object moves, while velocity is a vector quantity that includes direction. The tutorial provides examples of calculating both speed and velocity, discussing average and instantaneous values. It concludes with a preview of the next topic, acceleration.

Why do different objects take different amounts of time to travel the same distance?

• Because they have different weights

• Because they have different speeds

• Because they have different colors

• Because they have different shapes

What is speed considered as, since it does not involve direction?

• A dynamic quantity

• A complex quantity

• A scalar quantity

• A vector quantity

How is speed calculated?

• Speed = Distance/Time

• Speed = Distance x Time

• Speed = Time/Distance

• Speed = Time x Distance

What is the average speed of an object that covers 120 meters in 30 seconds?

• 6 meters per second

• 4 meters per second

• 3 meters per second

• 5 meters per second

What is instantaneous speed?

• The speed at a specific instant

• The average speed over a journey

• The speed when an object is stationary

• The speed when an object is accelerating

What device is used to measure instantaneous speed in vehicles?

• Odometer

• Thermometer

• Speedometer

• Barometer

What additional information does velocity provide compared to speed?

• Direction

• Distance

• Mass

• Time

How is velocity expressed in terms of displacement and time?

• Velocity = Time/Displacement

• Velocity = Displacement x Time

• Velocity = Displacement/Time

• Velocity = Time x Displacement

What is the runner's average velocity if his position changes from 15 meters to 40 meters in 3 seconds?

• 6.33 meters per second

• 7.33 meters per second

• 8.33 meters per second

• 5.33 meters per second

What is it called when an object's velocity remains the same throughout its motion?

• Variable velocity

• Constant velocity

• Instantaneous velocity

• Average velocity
