6 Questions
What is the difference between speed and velocity?
Speed is a scalar quantity, velocity is a vector quantity
What does a displacement-time graph represent?
Change in position of an object
How can you determine if a body is at rest from a velocity-time graph?
By a horizontal line at zero velocity
When is a body said to have uniform acceleration?
When its velocity changes by the same amount in equal time intervals
Why is it important to calculate the area under a velocity-time graph?
To calculate the displacement traveled by the object
What happens to the acceleration of free fall near Earth's surface?
It remains constant at approximately 10 m/s^2
This quiz covers topics from Physics 5059 syllabus, including concepts like speed, velocity, uniform acceleration, non-uniform acceleration, displacement-time graphs, and velocity-time graphs. Learn how to interpret graphs and calculate acceleration values using change in velocity over time.
