III.Complete the paragraph by filling in the blanks using the correct word/s from the box. Write your
answers on the space provided.
Motion is a change in (1.) _______________ with respect to a reference point. Distance and
displacement, speed and velocity, and acceleration are ways to describe motion. Distance is a (2.)
____________ quantity having magnitude but no direction while (3.) ________________ is a vector quantity
having both magnitude and direction. (4.) _______________ speed refers to the total distance travelled
divided by the total time and (5.) __________ is displacement divided by total time of travel. A
(6.)__________measures instantaneous speed/velocity. (7.) ___________ motion refers to an object
moving with constant speed or constant velocity. (8.) _____________ is defined as the change in velocity in a
time interval. Acceleration may change in any of the following conditions: when the velocity changes, when
the (9.) ____________ of motion changes, or when both velocity and direction of motion changes. (10.)
_______________ is the opposite of acceleration where the velocity of an object decreases.
IV.Complete the paragraph by filling in the blanks using the correct word/s from the box. Write your
answers on the space provided.
accelerating constant decelerating negative
A gradual change of the distance between dots in the ticker tape that gets smaller means the object
is slowing down which indicates that the object’s motion is (1.) _______________. If the distance between
dots gradually gets longer, it means the object is speeding up or (2.) _______________.
A ticker-tape chart can be converted into a motion graph. On a displacement-time graph, the slope
is equal to the (3.) _____________ of the object and the slope of a straight line is constant. Straight line
denotes (4.) _____________ velocities while curved line has changing slopes which denote acceleration. A
(5.) _________ slope indicates motion in the positive direction while a negative slope indicates motion in the
negative direction. A (6.) ___________slopes imply a state of rest. The (7.) __________ of the graph also
determines how fast or slow the motion is. A steeper slope indicates a (8.) ___________velocity while smaller
slope indicates slower velocity. Lastly, on a velocity-time graph, zero slopes indicate motion with (9.)
__________ velocity, a positive slope indicates an increase in velocity in the positive direction; and a (10.)
____________ slope indicates an increase in velocity in the negative direction.
