Science: Motion & Momentum

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
If you are driving up a curvy mountain road, would your displacement be greater than or less than your distance?   Less than  
🗑
Motion is a change in   position  
🗑
Does a line on a speed-time graph with a steep slope indicate a greater or a lesser speed?   greater  
🗑
As a moving object's velocity decreases, its momentum   decreases  
🗑
If two objects collided, what effect does that have on their momentum?   When things hit each other it transfers  
🗑
To have ______________ an object must be moving.   momentum  
🗑
Speed is the rate of change in   distance  
🗑
To describe velocity, what two things do you need to know?   speed & direction  
🗑
Acceleration is a change in   velocity  
🗑
On a speed-time graph, a __________ line shows the change in speed zero.   straight  
🗑
If you exert a force on an object in motion, you will change its   direction  
🗑
What is the formula for calculating speed?   S = D/T  
🗑
When object 'A' collides with object 'B' and bounces back, how does its final momentum compare to its starting momentum?   same  
🗑
What is momentum a measure of?   How hard it is to stop an object  
🗑
A cue ball hits another billiard ball and slows down. Why does the speed of the cue ball decrease?   it transfers momentum to the other ball  
🗑
What kind of speed is measured at a particular moment or instant in time?   instantaneous speed  
🗑
How can the displacement of an object be zero when the distance traveled was 1 mile?   You could travel 0.5 miles and 0.5 back  
🗑
List three ways to accelerate an object.   speed up, slow down, changing direction  
🗑
Be able to compare the slope of a line on an acceleration graph and determine faster and slower rates of acceleration.    
🗑
Be able to calculate the speed of an object using information gotten from a graph.    
🗑
Describe what will happen when a small ball moving in one direction strikes a large ball that is sitting still. What happens to the small ball?   it will bounce back  
🗑
Describe what will happen when a small ball moving in one direction strikes a large ball that is sitting still. What happens to the large ball?   it will move the direction of the small ball  
🗑
Review your math worksheet from S=D/T . There will be 4 to 5 problems on the test that are similar to theses problems. You will need to show your work, solve the problem, and have the right label.    
🗑
A marathon runner can run 25 miles in 5 hours. What speed is she running?    
🗑
On the European Autobahn, cars can drive up to 140 kph. How far can one of those cars get in 6 hours?    
🗑
If an airplane travels at 400 miles per hour, how long would it take to travel 3600 miles?    
🗑
Draw a speed-time graph that shows an increase in speed; one for a decrease in speed; and one for no change in speed.    
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
