Motion, Acceleration, and Forces Before You Read Before you read the chapter, respond to these statements. 1. Write an A if you agree with the statement. 2, Write a D if you disagree with the statement. Before You i i Motion, Acceleration, and Forces + Distance and displacement are the same thing. + Velocity and speed are the same thing. + Whenever an object accelerates, its speed increases. + It takes force to change an object's direction of motion. * Objects in motion tend to slow down and come to rest unless acted on by outside forces. Science Journal, Write a paragraph describing three rides in an amusement park and how rides cause you to move.Motion, Acceleration, and Forces Section 1 Describing Motion Benchmarks—SC.C. 1.4.1: The student knows that ll motion is relative to whatever fame of reference is chosen and thet there Is no absolute ame of reference from which fo dbserve al maton.

Label your diagram with the distance and direction traveled. Analyze the formula for average speed by looking at the diagram and filling in the prompts. Put your finger over the Von the diagram. Now write the formula for average speed. Put your finger over the d on the diagram. Write the calculation to find total distance if you know average speed and total time. Prove to yourself that these formulas are correct by checking the units. veadst + dhas units of and t has units of + Therefore, V has units of d=% + Thas units of , and t has units of + Therefore, d has units ofMotion, Acceleration, and Forces Section 2 Acceleration mee ee sn once ct _ Review — @ocabular velocity New~ @ocabular acceleration positive ic. Scan Use the checklist below to preview Section 2 of your book. 1 Read all section titles. 1 Read all boldfaced words. 1 Read all graphs and equations. 1 Look at all the pictures and read their captions. Define velocity in a sentence to show its scientific meaning. Use your book to define the word acceleration, Analyze why we say an object is accelerating, when we usually mean that it is speeding up. An object that is slowing down also is accelerating. Use a dictionary to define the word positive. Then write a scientific sentence that includes the word.
