5 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define distance and give an example.
Think about the total travel length.
What is displacement, and how is it different from distance?
Consider if the starting and ending points are the same.
What is the difference between distance and displacement?
Think about what each term represents.
Which equation represents acceleration?
Recall the formula for acceleration.
A runner completes a 400 m lap on a circular track. If they start at point A and finish at point A after 1 minute, calculate their speed and displacement.
Calculate speed first, and remember displacement focuses on the final position compared to the initial.
A car accelerates from 0 to 90 km/h in 5 seconds. What is its acceleration, and how far does it travel in that time?
Convert km/h to m/s for calculations, and apply both the acceleration formula and displacement formula.
