  1. Which one of the following statements is not possible?
  1. An object has zero velocity and non-zero acceleration
  2. An object travels with a northward velocity and a northward acceleration
  3. An object travels with a constant velocity and a constant non-zero acceleration
  4. An object travels with a changing velocity and a constant acceleration

             ____________

  1. In a displacement vs. time graph, a sloped (non-horizontal) line indicates:
  1. The object is moving with constant, non-zero, acceleration
  2. The total displacement of the object is zero
  3. The object is moving at a constant, non-zero, velocity
  4. The object is at rest
  5. This is not possible

             ____________

  1. You stand on a scale in an elevator as it is moving downwards with constant, upwards acceleration. The reading on the scale (your “apparent weight”) is:
  1. Less than your true weight
  2. Greater than your true weight
  3. Equal to your true weight
  4. Zero
  5. Not enough information to say

               ____________

  1. A rocket, firing its engine and accelerating in outer space (no gravity or air resistance), suddenly runs out of fuel. Which of the following best describes its motion after burn out?
  1. It continues to accelerate at the same rate
  2. It continues to accelerate, but at a gradually decreasing rate, until it reaches a constant velocity
  3. It immediately stops accelerating, and continues moving at the velocity it had when burn out occurred.
  4. It immediately begins slowing down and gradually comes to rest
  5. Its motion would depend on its initial acceleration and its mass

For an object being launched at ground level at a tilted non-zero initial velocity, is the velocity zero anywhere? Are the horizontal or vertical components of the velocity zero at any point? What is the shape of this trajectory? (Use the mathematical term). If an object is launched with a strictly horizontal initial velocity, what is the vertical component of the initial velocity? Will an object take longer, less, or the same amount of time to reach the ground if...

Speed means the absolute value of the velocity, hence it is always non-negative. While the sign of the velocity indicates the direction of the motion, the speed is insensitive to the direction. For example, speed is the value displayed by car’s speedometer; it does not indicate the direction of driving (e.g., northbound versus southbound). At time t = 0 seconds (s) an object has zero velocity and it starts a free fall from the altitude of 1200 metres (m) above...
