What is the formula to calculate speed?
Speed = time/distance
Speed = distance/time
Speed = distance x time
Speed = time x distance

Multiple Choice
When a car goes around a corner at 20 mph, why do we say it accelerates?
The car is accelerating because of the velocity is constant
The car accelerates because it's going 20 mph
Cars always accelerate when they are in motion
The car is accelerating because it's changing direction

Multiple Choice
A car turns right without slowing down. Is this an example of acceleration?
No, acceleration is the increase or decrease in speed.
Yes, because the car changed directions.
Yes, because the car increased it's speed.
No, because the car did not change directions.
