If an object is moving with uniform motion, it

-Moves the same distance in shorter and shorter amounts of time
-Moves a smaller distance in the same amount of time
-Moves a larger distance in the same amount of time
-Moves the same distance in the same amount of time - ANSWER: Moves the same
distance in the same amount of time

The magnitude of a vector is:

-The direction of the vector
-The length of the vector
-The horizontal component of the vector
-The vertical component of the vector - ANSWER: The length of the vector

What is the correct numerical form of 3.14x10-3?

0.000314
0.14
0.314
0.00314 - ANSWER: 0.00314

Solve the following equation for t: y = x + ½ at2

t = ((2/a)(y-x))^½
t = 2y/a - x
t = 2a(y-x)^½
t = ((2a)(y-x))^½ - ANSWER: t = ((2/a)(y-x))^½

What is the difference between velocity and speed?

-There is no difference
-Speed is for horizontal motion, velocity is for vertical motion
-Speed includes the direction of motion, velocity does not
-Velocity includes the direction of motion, speed does not - ANSWER: Velocity
includes the direction of motion, speed does not

The Greek letter Δ (delta) is used to indicate

-The mouth of a river
-A change in a quantity

, -The difference between the calculated answer and the correct answer
-Only a change in position along the x-axis. - ANSWER: A change in a quantity

Which of these is the equation for sinθ?

-Opposite/adjacent
-Adjacent/opposite
-Opposite/hypotenuse
-Adjacent/hypotenuse - ANSWER: Opposite/hypotenuse

Which of these is not a vector?

-Time
-Velocity
-Displacement
-Net displacement - ANSWER: Time

A motion diagram represents motion of an object at

-Equally spaced positions
-Equally spaced velocities
-Equally spaced time intervals
-Equally spaced accelerations - ANSWER: Equally spaced time intervals

A model is

-A simplification of reality
-A detailed drawing of reality
-A small experiment in a lab
-Not discussed in Chapter 1. - ANSWER: A simplification of reality

In a proportional relation such as Δx=vx*Δt, what happens to Δx if Δt is tripled?

Δx decreases by a factor of 3
Δx increases by a factor of 3
Δx decreases by a factor of 1/3
Δx increases by a factor of 1/3 - ANSWER: Δx increases by a factor of 3

How would you rearrange the uniform motion equation, xf = xi+vx*Δt to find Δt?

Δt = (xf+xi)*vx
Δt = (xf-xi)*vx
Δt = (xf+xi)/vx
Δt = (xf-xi)/vx - ANSWER: Δt = (xf-xi)/vx

In a position-versus-time graph what is graphed on the vertical axis?
