Question 1:
To describe Isaac's movement from 10:00 am to 10:30 am:
Response: Isaac is not moving.
Question 2:
To determine during which segment of the trip Isaac is moving with the greatest velocity, we need to examine the slopes of the segments:
- Segment A: 8 am to 10 am (0 km to 40 km) - This is a sloped line (indicating movement).
- Segment B: 10 am to 10:30 am (40 km) - This is a horizontal line (indicating no movement).
- Segment C: 10:30 am to 1:30 pm (40 km to 160 km) - This is also a sloped line.
The slope (velocity) is steeper for Segment C than for Segment A (because it covers more distance over the same time).
Response: Segment C.
Question 3:
Match each word to its correct description.
- Displacement: the direct length between the starting position and its ending position.
- Distance: the total length of the path traveled, regardless of direction.
- Velocity: a vector quantity: 200m to the left.
- Speed: the rate of distance covered over time or magnitude of velocity.
Please insert your matches accordingly.
