Unit 2 Honors Physics Quiz

Motion (2.1)

change in the object’s position over time.

Motion Digram (2.1)

position of moving objects over timed intervals.

Particle Motion (2.1)

• simplified version of motion diagram.

• objects are drawn as dots

  

What is the average speed? (2.1)

Average speed = Total distance/Total Time

Postion-time graph (2.3)

an object’s position over time shown on a graph over the x and y axis 

Instantaneous Position (2.3)

objects specific location in a single moment in time.

The rate of motion is defined by what (2.4)

average velocity and average speed

Average velocity (2.3)

slope of position timed graph.

velocity (2.4)

• speed of something in a direction. 

• A steeper slope is greater velocity.

average velocity (2.4)

vector (magnitude and speed)

average speed (2.4)

magnitude only

Instantaneous velocity (2.4)

speed of object at a particular distance
