Identify how to calculate average speed.

Average speed is calculated by dividing the total distance by the total time.

Average speed is calculated by multiplying the total distance by the total time.

Average speed is calculated by adding the total distance and total time.

Average speed is calculated by subtracting the total time from the total distance.

Identify two examples of motion in which an object's instantaneous speed changes.

A car accelerating on a highway and a ball thrown upwards.

A train moving at constant speed and a clock ticking.

A person walking at a steady pace and a fan rotating at constant speed.

A satellite orbiting Earth at a constant speed and a pendulum at rest.

Explain why the slopes are different for each swimmer.

The swimmers have different speeds.

The swimmers are swimming in different lanes.

The swimmers have different starting points.

The swimmers are wearing different swimsuits.

If an object is moving at 2 m/s towards a porcelain vase, do you think it will have enough momentum to break the vase?

It depends on the mass of the object.

Yes, it will have enough momentum to break the vase.

No, it will not have enough momentum to break the vase.

It depends on the angle of impact.

Velocity and speed are different in that velocity includes direction, while speed does not.

Velocity includes direction, speed does not.

Speed includes direction, velocity does not.

The speed of the movement of Earth's plates is measured in centimeters per year instead of in meters per second because:

The movement is very slow and centimeters per year is a more appropriate unit.

Meters per second is too large a unit for such slow movements.

Centimeters per year provides more precision for geological measurements.

Compare which has more momentum, a car traveling at 12 km/h or a bicycle traveling at the same speed?

A car traveling at 12 km/h has more momentum than a bicycle traveling at the same speed.

A bicycle traveling at 12 km/h has more momentum than a car traveling at the same speed.

Momentum cannot be determined with the given information.

A car traveling at 2 m/s might damage a porcelain vase, but an insect flying at 2 m/s will not because:

the car has more mass and therefore more momentum.

the insect is more aerodynamic.

the vase is designed to withstand insect impacts.

the car travels faster than the insect.

If two objects have the same mass, which object has the larger momentum?

The object with larger velocity

The object with smaller velocity

The speed of a bicycle as it goes uphill and downhill is described as:

Decreases uphill, increases downhill

Increases uphill, decreases downhill

Increases both uphill and downhill

Identify three ways that an object can accelerate.

By increasing speed, changing direction, or decreasing speed

By remaining at rest, moving at constant speed, or moving in a straight line

By rotating, vibrating, or staying still

By maintaining constant velocity, constant speed, or constant direction

What do vf and vi mean in the context of calculating acceleration?

vf represents the final velocity, and vi represents the initial velocity in the context of calculating acceleration.

vf represents the initial velocity, and vi represents the final velocity in the context of calculating acceleration.

vf and vi are unrelated to velocity in the context of calculating acceleration.

vf and vi represent the average velocity in the context of calculating acceleration.

Explain why you cannot use the acceleration equation for an object that changes direction.

The acceleration equation assumes constant direction.

The acceleration equation is only valid for linear motion.

The acceleration equation does not account for changes in velocity.

The acceleration equation is only applicable to stationary objects.

The acceleration of an object moving at a constant velocity is always 0 because:

it is not changing its speed or direction.

it is moving in a circular path.

it is experiencing a net force.

Centripetal acceleration is defined as:

The acceleration directed towards the center of a circular path.

The rate of change of velocity of an object moving in a straight line.

The force that opposes the motion of an object.

The energy possessed by an object due to its motion.

A car that is slowing down is still moving forward. Why is this considered negative acceleration?

Because the car is decreasing its speed.

Because the car is moving in the opposite direction.

Because the car is increasing its speed.
