1How can we use the internet to view a map showing the road that joins two places? Discuss in class.
2Using available technology, find the approximate distance between any two places and the displacement in going from one to the other.
3A freely falling object covers 44.1 m in 3 seconds while its velocity rises from 0 m/s to 29.4 m/s. What conclusion can be drawn from the two calculations \( \frac{44.1}{3} \) and \( \frac{0 + 29.4}{2} \) based on this data?
4What is the difference between distance and displacement? Write with an example.
5Why is speed a scalar quantity while velocity is a vector quantity?
6When can velocity change even though its magnitude does not change? Give an example.
7What is the acceleration due to gravity 'g'? What is its average value at the Earth's surface?
8What is retardation? Why is it also called negative acceleration?
9The velocity of a motorcycle rises from 5 m/s north to 17 m/s north in 4 seconds. Find the acceleration of the motorcycle.
