Make up your own displacement problem. Write out the question completely, and solve it showing your own work.

B. Speed & Velocity

Speed: Distance Time.
Velocity: Speed in a specific direction (displacement) ~ Displacement Time. distance/displacement: meter (m) time: second (s)

B. Speed & Velocity

1. Dave walks 200 meters in 40 seconds. What is his speed?
distance = 200 m

time = 40 s
speed = 200m/40s = 5m/s

B. Speed & Velocity

2. Steve travels at 50m/s for 20s. How far does he go?
speed = 50m/s

time = 20s
distance = 50m/s*20s = 1,000m

B. Speed & Velocity

3. How long would it take to run 100 meters if you run at 10m/s?
distance = 100m

speed = 10m/s
time = 100m/10m/s = 10 s

C. Acceleration
Acceleration occurs when an object accelerates (speeding up), decelerates (slowing down), or changes direction.

The rate at which velocity changes

C. Acceleration
Acceleration: velocity time. velocity: meter/second (m/s) time: second (s) Acceleration: meter/second/second (m/s/s or m/s2)

C. Acceleration
1. A roller coaster starts down a hill at 10 m/s. Three seconds later, its speed is 32 m/s. What is the roller coasters acceleration?
Initial Velocity = 10m/s Final Velocity = 32 m/s Time = 3 s Acceleration = (32-10)/3 = 7.3 m/s2

C. Accleration
