Physical Science 9 Practice Test for Motion
Solutions
  1. A car drives north from the IC Norte. It starts at 12:30:00pm and ends up traveling 1.5 km distance by 12:33:00pm. What is the elapsed time? What is the car's final position? What is the displacement of the car from the IC? What is the car's velocity in m/s? What is the car's speed?
  2. A plane is flying at 200 m/s eastward. The engines cut out and while maintaining the same altitude and direction the pilot notices the plane's speed has cut in half after 2 minutes. What is the acceleration of the plane for these two minutes? (Remember direction. Acceleration is a vector.)
  3. A ball drops from a building 20 m high. How long until it hits the ground? With what speed will it hit the ground?
  4. Choose two of the scenarios above and graph them on a position vs time graph.
