Unit 2 Test Study Guide Review Fall 25

Velocity is a combination of what 2 things?

• Speed and direction

• Mass and acceleration

• Force and time

• Energy and power

How does an object’s velocity get stopped?

• By applying a force in the opposite direction

• By increasing its mass

• By reducing friction

• By increasing its speed

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

• Speed is a scalar quantity, while velocity is a vector quantity.

• Speed and velocity are both vector quantities.

• Speed is measured in meters per second, while velocity is measured in kilometers per hour.

• Speed and velocity are the same and can be used interchangeably.

Name the contact forces we talked about.

• Friction and tension

• Gravity and magnetism

• Electric force and nuclear force

• Buoyant force and air resistance

Name the non-contact forces we talked about.

• Gravitational force

• Frictional force

• Magnetic force

• Tension force
