After playing a video game about frogs, Shana and Aurlyn want to know how quickly their pet frog, Skipper, can hop. What could Shana and Aurlyn do to find the answer?
They could take Skipper outside and see how long it takes him to hop 2 meters.
They could take Skipper outside many times to see how long it takes him to do one hop each time.
They could take Skipper outside and see how long it takes him to hop 0.5 meters up into the air.
They could take Skipper outside and see how long it takes him to get his back legs off the ground.
In an outdoor walking/running lab, your partner walked 20 meters north in 5 seconds. What was your partner’s velocity?
4 m/s
4 m/s North
5 m/s
5 m/s North
Unlike acceleration and velocity, speed does NOT need to specify
mass
distance
direction
time
How could the speed of a car be determined?
distance and time
distance and size
weight and time
weight and size
A motorcycle is being driven on a road moving north at 40 miles per hour. A car is driving on the same road moving south at 40 miles per hour. Which of the following is true?
The motorcycle and the car are moving in opposite directions, so their velocities are different.
The motorcycle and the car are moving in opposite directions, so their speeds are different
The motorcycle and car are moving at the same velocity but different speeds.
The motorcycle and car are moving at the same velocity and the same speed.
Select all of the ways that a person or object can accelerate:
Speed Up
Slow Down
Change Directions
Travel at a constant speed
An object with increasing acceleration is also increasing in which other property?
mass
temperature
velocity
volume
Velocity can only be described by including both
speed and direction of the object in motion
mass and direction of the object in motion.
speed and volume of the object in motion.
mass and volume of the object in motion
