What is the definition of position in physics?

• The speed of an object
• The measure of where an object is at a particular time
• The change in position of an object
• The total distance traveled by an object

What is the term for motion in which the position changes the same amount in each time interval?

• Nonuniform motion
• Uniform motion
• Random motion
• Accelerated motion

What does the term "resultant" refer to in physics?

• The initial force applied to an object
• The average of all forces acting on an object
• The difference between two forces
• The total force acting on an object, including its direction

Which of the following best describes a scalar quantity?

• It has both magnitude and direction
• It only has direction
• It is fully described by magnitude alone
• It cannot be measured

How is distance different from displacement?

• Distance considers direction, displacement doesn't
• Distance is the total path length, displacement is the shortest pathName: Inv
• Distance is always less than displacement
• There is no difference between distance and displacement

What does "horizontal" refer to in physics?

• Motion perpendicular to the ground
• Motion parallel to the ground
• Upward motion
• Circular motion

What is the analytical method in vector analysis?

• Using graphical representations to solve problems
• Using mathematical techniques to solve vector problems
• Estimating vector magnitudes visually
• Measuring vectors physically

In physics, what is a quantity?

• A type of vector
• A measurable physical property
• The speed of an object
• The direction of motion

What is a diagram in physics?

• A complex mathematical equation
• A written description of a phenomenon
• A simplified drawing showing the structure or workings of something
• A table of numerical data

What is a time interval in physics?

• The speed of an object
• The distance traveled by an object
• The amount of time between two specific points in time
• The acceleration of an object
