    Study Notes

    Test Instructions

    • Test consists of 10 questions.
    • First 8 questions are multiple choice (10 points each).
    • Questions 9 and 10 require written responses (total of 20 points).
    • Use provided equation sheet; no other notes allowed.
    • Incorrect multiple-choice answers receive zero points; partial credit for written responses is awarded based on work shown and correctness.

    Motion Diagrams

    • Determine motion based on given velocity and acceleration values with standard sign conventions.
    • Identify correct position-versus-time graphs for provided motion diagrams.

    Velocity and Time

    • Analyze velocity-versus-time graphs to assess changes in direction.
    • Recognize the time intervals when a car may change direction based on velocity readings.

    Average Velocity Components

    • Analyze vectors using standard conventions to label average velocity components as positive, negative, or zero.

    Direction of Motion

    • Identify points where two individuals (Felipe and Samara) are moving in the same direction.
    • Understand relationships between trajectories and directions at specific points.

    Velocity from Position-Time Graphs

    • Interpret position versus time graphs to calculate instantaneous velocity at a given time.

    Deceleration Calculations

    • For an airplane landing on a 2500-meter runway at 140 m/s, determine the minimum constant deceleration needed to stop safely.
    • Use applicable equations to calculate the required deceleration values.

    Average Velocity of a Walking Cat

    • For a cat walking from point A to B at a constant speed of 7 m/s, find the magnitude of its average velocity based on its trajectory.

    Vector Representation

    • For questions involving vectors, sketch and label the initial position vector, final position vector, and the displacement vector in a given coordinate system. Ensure arrowheads are clearly visible for each vector.
