Work all problems on a separate sheet of paper. Show all work as outlined on board.
Velocity and Acceleration
Velocity=Distance/Time Acceleration=D Velocity/D Time
What is the velocity, in MPH, of a car traveling 60 miles in 2 hours?
What is the velocity, in MPH, of a car traveling 10 miles in 15 minutes? (be sure to convert minutes to hours)
What is the velocity, in MPH, of a plane traveling 2000 miles in 6 hours?
What is the velocity, in m/s, of a runner traveling 20 meters in 4 seconds?
What is the velocity, in m/s, of a bullet traveling 1200 meters in .1 seconds?
What is the acceleration, in m/s2, of a car speeding up from 0 to 20 m/s in 5 seconds?
Momentum and Force
Momentum=Mass x Velocity Force=Mass x Acceleration
What is the momentum of a 1000 Kg car traveling at 10 m/s?
What is the force needed to lift a 10 Kg mass? (Hint: acceleration = force of gravity)
What is the force needed to accelerate a 1000 Kg car at 2 m/s2?
What is the weight, in Newtons, of a person with a mass of 100 Kg?
