1. The object moves forward in a arc that extends to the left of the observer at a faster rate.

2. The object accelerates away from the observer from left to right before coming to a complete stop.

3. The object starts behind the observer and moves past the observer before returning to the starting point.

4. The object moves with a constant velocity in the negative direction then the positive direction then negative again.

Car 1 is moving north at 100 kilometers per hour (km/hr). Car 2

passes Car 1 by moving at 110 km/hr in the same direction.

1. The smaller jet must be faster to align with the fuelling jet.

2. The fuelling jet must be faster to avoid spilling.

An observer is watching a passenger moving on a moving sidewalk at the airport. The observer knows

A book is lying on a seat in a car that is moving at 50 kilometers per hour (km/h). The driver says that the book is not moving. An outside observer says the book is moving at 50 km/h because it is in the car. Which is the

most logical conclusion for these two statements?

1 2 3 4

0% 0%0%0%

1. Motion is detected only if the car accelerates and is measured by the observer.

2. Motion is absolute, and the driver is incorrect saying that the book has no motion.

3. Motion is relative to a given frame of reference, and both the driver and observer are correct.

4. Motion is constantly changing so neither person’s statement will be correct when the car slows down.

A train is moving south at 120 kilometers per hour (km/hr). Javier is

The current of a river is flowing south at a speed of
