6.8C- Which two measurements are needed to determine the speed of an object?
Position and time
Distance and time
Position and direction
Distance and direction
6.8D- During a science experiment, a student dropped a metal ball from a height of 150 m. The graph shows the distance the metal ball traveled from its initial position to where it hit the ground.
What information does the graph give you about the speed of the metal ball over time?
The ball travels at a constant speed.
The speed of the ball increases over time.
The speed of the ball decreases over time.
e speed of the ball increases at first, and then decreases as time increases.

6.8A- A ball is sitting at the top of a ramp. As the ball rolls down the ramp, the potential energy of the ball decreases. What happens to the potential energy as the ball moves?
It is lost as gravitational energy.
It is destroyed as the ball moves.
It is converted to kinetic energy
It is used to make the ball slow down.

6.8B- A box and forces are shown below. A box rests motionless on the ground. One student is pushing the box to the right with a force of 2 Newtons. The other student is pushing to the left with a force of 5 Newtons. In which direction and with what type of speed will the box move?
It will move left
It will move to the right
It will float in the air
It will not move
6.8B- An image of a toy rocket and forces are shown below. Assuming the only two forces on the toy rocket are lift and gravity, which of the following combinations would result in the rocket moving upward?
Lift= 5 Newtons / Gravity = 5 Newtons
Lift = 3 Newtons / Gravity = 4 Newtons
Lift = 5 Newtons / Gravity = 4 Newtons
Lift = 4 Newtons / Gravity = 4 Newtons
6.8E- The diagram shows an investigation in a science classroom.
Students pulled the same mass up an inclined plane propped up on five blocks, then six, seven, and eight blocks. Each time, they use a spring scale to measure the forces needed to pull the mass up the inclined plane. This investigation can show how which of the following affects the force needed to move an object up an inclined plane?
The mass of the object
The height of the inclined plane
The length of the inclined plane
The surface area of the object
6.8E- How could students find out whether a short ramp or a long ramp would require less force to use? Measure the amount of force it takes to move —
an object up two ramps with the same height, but different lengths
an object up two ramps with equal heights and equal lengths
an object up two ramps with the same length, but different heights
one object up a ramp and a larger object up an identical ramp
If a car is moving on a highway at 70 kilometers per hour, going south, and then turns to travel 70 kilometers per hour, going east, what happens to its speed and velocity?
