Find the instantaneous acceleration at 4 s.
Answer in units of m/s².
velocity (m/s)
Choose the best example of uniform motion.
A pen falls slowly at first but gains speed the longer it falls towards the ground
O A toy car pulled by a child rolls 5 inches for every second the child moves it
A ball thrown up in the air begins fast, comes to a stop, and falls quickly again.
O A bottle of juice left on a hill rolls slowly down the hill until it's too fast to be
caught
Which of these is the best description for velocity?
the total sum of all paths taken by an object
the distance travelled by an object divided by time
the displacement travelled by an object divided by time
the change in speed of an object divided by time

- When the Earth passes a planet such as Mars, the planet appears to move backward for a time, a phenomenon known as retrograde motion. Ancient astronomers believed that the Earth did not move and that the planets moved around the Earth. They also believed that uniform circular motion was perfect and that heavenly objects such as planets exhibited this perfect motion. How do you suppose ancient astronomers accounted for retrograde motion?
