Motion
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is motion? | Movement |
| What is speed? | Speed is the distance travelled in a given time,it is measured in m/s or ms. |
| What is velocity? | Velocity is speed in a given direction. |
| What is the calculations for speed? | Speed= distance divided by time. |
| Calculations for distance? | Distance=Speed x time. |
| Calculations for time?. | Time= distance Speed |
| What is a distance time graph? | Distance time graphs show the distance travelled from a certain point over time. |
| What is acceleration? | Acceleration is the change in speed,measured in m/s 2 or ms-2 |
| How do you calculate acceleration? | Final speed- first speed divided by time taken= answer m/s 2 (squared) or ms-2 |
| What are speed time graphs? | Speed time graphs show the speed of an object changing over time. |
| Ina distance time graph,what do sloped lines represent? | Sloped lines represents constant speed. |
| In a distance time graph,what do horizontal lines show? | Horizontal lines show no movement. |
| In a speed time graph,what do sloped lines repersent? | A sloped line represents a change in speed,this is acceleration. |
| In a speed time graph,what do horizontal lines show? | A horizontal line shows constant speed,there is no acceleration. |
