What is the definition of a scalar quantity?
A quantity with both magnitude and direction
A quantity with magnitude only
A quantity that is always positive
A quantity that changes with time
Which of the following is an example of a vector quantity?
Distance
Speed
Time
Displacement
What is the SI unit of speed?
Meters per second (m/s)
Kilometers per hour (km/h)
Miles per hour (mph)
Centimeters per second (cm/s)
What does the term 'acceleration' refer to?
The rate of change of velocity
The distance covered in a straight line
The rate of change of speed
The total distance traveled
What is the formula for calculating average velocity?
Average Velocity = Speed / Time
Average Velocity = Displacement / Time
Average Velocity = Distance / Time
Average Velocity = Acceleration / Time
What does Newton's First Law of Motion state?
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
Acceleration is proportional to the force applied
Force equals mass times acceleration
An object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon
What is the definition of displacement?
Distance traveled over time
Distance covered in a straight line
Total distance traveled regardless of direction
Shortest distance between two points in a specified direction
What is the SI unit of acceleration?
Newton (N)
Meters per second (m/s)
Meters per second squared (m/s²)
Kilometers per hour (km/h)
How is average speed calculated?
Total distance / Total time
Total displacement / Total time
Total distance / Total velocity
Total velocity / Total time
What is the relationship defined by Newton's Second Law of Motion?
F = ma
F = mv
F = ma²
F = m/a
What does the term 'negative acceleration' refer to?
Acceleration in the opposite direction
Decrease in speed
Increase in speed
Constant speed
What is the total distance traveled if a student walks 30 m south, 40 m east, and 30 m north?
70 m
40 m
100 m
30 m
