Motion

Question 1

Speed

Answer 1

How fast an object is moving = D/T

Question 2

Velocity

Answer 2

An objects speed and direction =D/T

Question 3

Acceleration

Answer 3

Changing velocites

Question 4

Positive Acceleration

Answer 4

Speeding up

Question 5

Negative Acceleration

Answer 5

Slowing down

Question 6

Reference Point

Answer 6

A location or object that is being used to compare another objects motion

Question 7

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 7

Backwards constant velocity

the distance is decreasing from 3 to 0

Question 8

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 8

Constant Speed or Constant Velocity

Question 9

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 9

Speeding up

Question 10

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 10

Constant Speed or Constant Velocity

Question 11

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 11

Not moving

The distance stays at 3 m the entire time

Question 12

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 12

Slowing down

The slope of the line starts high (fast motion) then flattents out (slow motion)

Question 13

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 13

Constant Velocity

The velocity of the line is always 5 m/s

Question 14

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 14

Not Moving

Velocity is always zero

Question 15

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 15

Decreasing Velocity or Slowing Down

V starts at 5 and decreases to 0

Question 16

Assume these are all Velocity vs Time graphs. Which shows backwards motion?

Answer 16

Graph D

it shows a negative velocity which is backwards motion

Question 17

What type of motion does this show?

Answer 17

Increasing Velocity or Speeding UP

V starts at 0 and decreases to 10

Answer 21

8 m/s north

Question 22

You are on a train taveling at 10 m/s to the north with the ground as the reference point. You you walk to the back of the train at 7 m/s. How fast are you moving compared to the ground?

Answer 22

3 m/s north

Question 23

You are on a train taveling at 10 m/s to the north with the ground as the reference point. You you walk to the back of the train at 12 m/s. How fast are you moving compared to the ground?

Answer 23

2 m/s south

Question 24

You are seated on a train taveling at 10 m/s to the north with the ground as the reference point. Your friend is seated on a train headed south on the same track at 15 m/s. How fast is your friend moving with you as the reference point?

Answer 24

25 m/s south
