Q
2.Motion
A
An objects change in position relative to a reference point
1
Q
- What is a reference point
A
The object that appears to stay in place
2
Q
- What 2 factors are used to calculate average speed
A
Total distance
Total time
3
Q
- What is the formula for calculating average speed
A
Total distance
Total time
4
Q
- What does constant speed and also average speed look like on a distance/time graph
A
Look on study guide
5
Q
6.Velocity
A
The speed of an object in a particular direction
6
Q
- Acceleration
A
The rate at which velocity changes over time; an object accelerates if it’s speed, direction, or both change
7
Q
- Deceleration
A
A decrease in speed
8
Q
- Centripetal acceleration
A
The acceleration that happens when an object moves at constant speed in a circular motion
9
Q
- Diagram the Speed Triangle and write the formulas for calculating speed distance and time
A
Speed=d/t
Distance= s x t
Time= d/s
10
Q

A
On study guide
11
Q
- What is the formula for acceleration
A
V2-V1
Time
