What is the gradient equal to on a distance-time graph? - correct answer-Speed
How do you find out instantaneous speed? - correct answer-Draw a tangent at the time
needed
, What's the gradient equal to in a displacement-time graph? - correct answer-Velocity
How can instantaneous velocity be calculated? - correct answer-Draw a tangent at the time
needed
What's the gradient of a velocity-time graph equal to? - correct answer-Acceleration
What's the area under a velocity-time graph equal to? - correct answer-Displacement
Define thinking distance - correct answer-It's the distance travelled between the moment
when you first see a reason to stop to the moment when you apply the brake
What's the equation for reaction time? - correct answer-Reaction time = Thinking distance /
speed
Why does the value of g vary? - correct answer-Due to different altitude, latitude and
geology of the area
What 3 types of experimental equipment can be used to determine g? - correct answer-1).
Electromagnet and trap door
2). Light gates
3). Taking pictures or video
How do you determine g using a graph? - correct answer-Plot a graph of
displacement-time^2
Using the equation s=1/2 x a x t^2, acceleration can be determined.
Gradient is equal to a/2
Define Hooke's Law - correct answer-The force applied is directly proportional to the
extension of the spring unless the limit of proportionality is exceeded
Why does the horizontal velocity of the projectile remain constant? - correct answer-As the
force is acting perpendicular to the horizontal velocity. Cos(90) = 0
How do you find net force? - correct answer-Net force = Mass x Acceleration
Define Newton - correct answer-When 1kg of mass has an acceleration of 1m/s^2 in the
direction of the force
