Speed, Velocity, Acceleration Practice

Speed = distance (a)   time

• +
• ÷
• x
• -

Velocity = (a)  

• Speed
• Speed with direction
• acceleration
• how thick a liquid is

Speed is the measure of how ​ (a)   an object can travel in (b)   second (time) ​

• Velocity
• 1
• 10
• 5
• far (distance)

Which of the following represent velocity? Each should have 4 answers.

Groups:

(a) Speed

,

(b) Velocity

• 13 km/hr

• 13 km/hr left

• 54 mph north

• 60 mi/hr towards Galax

• 32 m/s

• 54 mph

• 60 mi/hr

• 32 m/s towards the mountains

Objects moving with circular motion are constantly (a)   because direction (​ (b)   ) is constantly changing

• accelerating
• velocity

Match

• No acceleration = no change

• 
• Deceleration (negative acceleration)

• 
• Acceleration (change speed, direction)
