Q
How do you calculate acceleration?
A
A =
1
Q
How do you calculate speed?
A
Speed = distance ➗ time
2
Q
What two graphs show the motion of an object?
A
Distance-time and velocity-time graphs
3
Q
What is the ONE rule for a distance-time graph?
A
The gradient of the graph indicates the speed of the object
4
Q
D-t
A steep line means?
A
A high speed
5
Q
D-t
A less steep line?
A
A lower speed
6
Q
D-t
A flat/horizontal line?
A
Not moving
7
Q
What are the TWO rules for Velocity-time graphs?
A
1⃣ The gradient is equal to the acceleration
2⃣ The area under the graph is equal to the distance travelled
8
Q
What graph says ‘…. speed’?
A
Distance-time graphs
9
Q
What graph says ‘…..acceleration/deceleration’
A
Velocity-time graphs
