Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 12.22 Speed, Velocity, and Acceleration skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A trip log gives position x = 0 m and velocity v = +2 m/s at t = 0 s, then position x = -8 m and velocity v = -4 m/s at t = 10 s. Which statement is correct for the 0 s to 10 s interval?

AAverage velocity is +0.80 m/s and average acceleration is -0.60 m/s².

BAverage velocity is -0.80 m/s and average acceleration is +0.60 m/s².

CAverage velocity is -8.0 m/s and average acceleration is -6.0 m/s².

DAverage velocity is -0.80 m/s and average acceleration is -0.60 m/s².

Solution & Explanation:Average velocity is displacement over time: (-8 - 0)/10 = -0.80 m/s. Average acceleration is velocity change over time: (-4 - 2)/10 = -0.60 m/s².

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A rover moves +50 m in 10 s, waits 5 s, and then moves -80 m in 20 s. What is its average velocity for the entire trip?

A3.71 m/s

B+0.86 m/s

C-0.86 m/s

D-1.50 m/s

Solution & Explanation:Net displacement is +50 m - 80 m = -30 m over 35 s. Average velocity is -30/35 = -0.86 m/s. The 3.71 m/s choice uses total distance for average speed.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A cart's velocity changes from 20 cm/s east to 110 cm/s east in 3.0 s. What is its average acceleration in m/s²?

A30 m/s² east

B0.30 m/s² east

C0.90 m/s² east

D0.030 m/s² east

Solution & Explanation:The velocity change is 90 cm/s = 0.90 m/s. Average acceleration is 0.90 m/s / 3.0 s = 0.30 m/s² east.
