What is the shortest distance between the starting point and the end point called? • Frame of reference • Velocity • Displacement • All of the above
Which distance can be most accurately measured with a ruler? • The width of a book • The length of a river • The distance between two cities • The size of an object under a microscope
What two variables are used to measure speed? • Distance & velocity • Distance & time • Time & Velocity • Final Velocity and Initial Velocity
Velocity is a description of what two things? • Vector and time • Speed and distance • Speed and direction • Distance and direction
Which of the following best describes how to determine acceleration of an object? • Take the final velocity subtract the initial velocity then divide by time • Take the initial velocity subtract the final velocity then divide by time • Distance divided by time • Lactic acid production
