Physics - Speed, Displacement & Velocity
Cards in this deck (10)
- 1What Is The SI Unit Of Time?The si unit of time is the second (s). Time is a scalar quantity
- 2What Is The SI Unit Of Distance?The si unit of distance is the metres (m). Distance is a scalar quantity, it's symbol is s or d
- 3What Is Speed?Speed is the rate of change of distance with respect to time. Speed is a scalar quantity
- 4How Do You Find Speed?Average speed = distance travelled/time taken
- 5What Is The SI Unit Of Speed?The si unit of speed is the metre per second [m s -1]
- 6What Is Displacement?Displacement is the distance in a given direction ie the shortest route. Distance is a vector quantity.
- 7What Is The SI Unit Of Displacement?The si unit of displacement is the metre (m).
- 8What Is Velocity?Velocity is the rate of change of displacent with respect to time. Velocity is a vector quantity.
- 9What Is The SI Unit Of Velocity?The si unit of velocity is the metre per second [m s -1]
- 10How Do You Find Velocity?ve velocity = distance undergone/time taken
