FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the difference between distance and displacement?
Back
Distance is a scalar quantity that measures the total path length traveled by an object, while displacement is a vector quantity that measures the shortest straight-line distance from the starting point to the endpoint, including direction.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What are vector quantities?
Back
Vector quantities are physical quantities that have both magnitude and direction. Examples include velocity, acceleration, and displacement.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What are scalar quantities?
Back
Scalar quantities are physical quantities that have only magnitude and no direction. Examples include mass, temperature, and distance.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is velocity?
Back
Velocity is a vector quantity that refers to the rate of change of displacement with respect to time. It includes both speed and direction.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is acceleration?
Back
Acceleration is a vector quantity that measures the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. It can be positive (speeding up) or negative (slowing down).
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for calculating average acceleration?
Back
Average acceleration (a) can be calculated using the formula: a = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
