Scott drives a Jeep 12 km east, then 4 km north, then finally 3 km west. He traveled a total distance of:
5 km
10 km
13 km
19 km
Acceleration can be... (select all that apply)
speeding up
slowing down
staying at a constant speed
changing directions
Velocity is different from speed because...
Velocity is distance/time. Speed is displacement/time.
Velocity is speed in a certain direction and can be positive or negative.
Speed is velocity in a certain direction. Both can only be positive.
Velocity is how much speed changes over time.

A baseball is thrown up into the air. What happens to the acceleration as the ball rises in the air? Careful! We are asking "Acceleration" NOT Velocity!
the acceleration increases
the acceleration decreases
the acceleration remains constant
A baseball is thrown up into the air. What happens to the velocity as the ball rises in the air?
velocity increases
velocity decreases
