The trunk of a certain tree is 50 cm thick. Each year it gets thicker by 1 cm. How thick will the trunk be in 50 years?

In can be important to know the velocity of an object, not just its speed, because

A runner starts a 5 km race at 10:15 a.m. and finishes at 10:35 a.m. Given this information, you can calculate the runner's

An airplane flies 80 km in 10 minutes and then flies 100 km in 20 minutes. The average speed of the airplane is

An object is in motion if it is moving relative to a(n)

To calculate acceleration, divide the change in ___________ by the time during which the acceleration occurs.

The velocity of an object gives both its speed and __________.

You can calculate an average ________ if you know both the total distance and the total time of a trip.

An object cannot be accelerating if it has a constant speed.

The information needed for describing velocity is distance/time and direction.

To determine the speed of an object, divide distance by acceleration.

An object is in motion only if its distance from a reference point is stationary.

If you know the speed of an object, you also know the direction of movement.
