Given:  
vi=10ms    …    vf=15ms   …    a=10 ms2v_i=10\frac{m}{s}\ \ \ \ \ldots\ \ \ \ v_f=15\frac{m}{s}\ \ \ \ldots\ \ \ \ a=10\ \frac{m}{s^2}  
Which equation would you choose to solve for time?

a)

vf=vi+atv_f=v_i+at  

b)

d=  (vi+vf)2td=\ \ \frac{(v_i+v_f)}{2}t  

c)

d=vit+12at2d=v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2  

d)

vf2=vi2+2adv_f^2=v_i^2+2ad  

e)

13.

Which of the following BEST describes the difference between "distance" and "displacement"?

a)

Distance measurements can't be negative, while displacement measurements can be negative

b)

Distance measures the change of position of an object in motion, while displacement measures the direction in which an object traveled.

c)

Distance is a measure of the total length of the motion, while displacement is the difference in position between starting and ending positions including direction.
