Speed

Question 1

Speed = ?

Average speed = ?

Answer 1

Speed (m/s) = distance (m) / time ( s )

Average speed = total distance (m) / total time ( s )

Question 2

What is the difference between speed + velocity

Answer 2

Velocity has direction ( speed with direction )

Speed is just a value

Question 3

Answer 6

Scalar

Question 7

Name 2 other examples of a scalar

Answer 7

Distance

Energy

Question 8

Name 3 other examples of a vector

Answer 8

Force
Acceleration
Displacement

Question 9

Definition of acceleration

Answer 9

Defined as the change in velocity

Therefore occurs if : 1. speed changes
2. direction changes

Question 10
