PHYSICS EXAM 1 Name. LA PART A. Multiple Choice (2 points each). Circle the best answer. 1. Suppose that an object is moving with a constant velocity. Which statement concerning its acceleration must be correct? A. The acceleration is constantly increasing. B. The acceleration is constantly decreasing. C._ The acceleration is a constant non-zero value. (©) The acceleration i equal 0 zero, ~ 2. Ifavector “ has components Ax <0, and Ay <0, then the angle that this vector makes with the positive x-axis must be in the range A, 0°t090" 8. 90° to 180" @® 180° t0 270" D. 270° to 360° £. cannot be determined without additional information 3. For general projectile motion with no air resistance, the horizontal component of a Projectile's acceleration A. Is always zero remains a non-zero constant. C. continuously increases. D. continuously decreases. E, first decreases and then increases. 4, Apilot drops a package from a plane flying horizontally at a constant speed. Neglecting air resistance, when the package hits the ground the horizontal location of the plane will A. be behind the package. @) be directly over the package. C. be in front of the package. . depend on the speed of the plane when the package was released, 5, The motions of a car and @ truck along a straight road are represented by the velocity-time graphs in the figure. The two vehicles are initially alongside each other at time t= 0. Vv - Lex , t At time T, what is true of the distances traveled by the vehicles since time t= 0? ‘A. They will have traveled the same distance. B. The truck will not have moved, The car will have travelled further than the truck. ((O) The truck will have travelled further than the car. Part B.
