Physics Quiz 1

Question 0

Unit of measure for velocity

Answer 0

Meters per second

Question 1

What is velocity?

Answer 1

Distance traveled divided by the time necessary to cover that distance
(V=d/t)

Question 2

What is acceleration?

Answer 2

Found by subtracting the initial velocity of an object from its final velocity and dividing that value by the time used, (a=vf-vo/t)

Question 3

Unit of measure of acceleration

Answer 3

Meters per second squared

Question 4

What is force?

Answer 4

A push, a pool, or other action that changes the motion of an object.
(F=ma)

Question 5

Unit of measure of force

Answer 5

Newton

Question 6

What is momentum?

Answer 6

Equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its velocity

P=mv

Question 7

What is work?

Answer 7

An expression of the force applied to an object multiplied by the distance across which it is applied
(Work=fd)

Question 8

What is the unit of measure for momentum?

Answer 8

Kilogram-meters per second

Question 9

Unit of measure for work

Answer 9

Joule

Question 10

What is power?

Answer 10

Equal to work divided by the time during which work is done.

p=work/t

Question 11

Unit of measure for power

Answer 11

Watts
