Year 10 Physics Motion Test

Students are permitted a single sided A4 summary sheet, a scientific calculator and the traditional pens, rulers, pencils and rubber.

The test has been constructed to examine all concepts covered during Term 4 study, including:

• distance & displacement
• average speed & average velocity
• acceleration
• Motion graphs: Position – Time
• Motion graphs: Velocity – Time
• Ticker timers ad ticker timer tapes
• Equations of constant acceleration

Practical Investigation

Both the student logbook and poster are to be handed up to myself at the completion of the last lesson of the semester (Pd.3, Fri 24th Nov.)
