New Worksheet - Newton's Laws

Practice acceleration problems with this worksheet. Use it to hone your understanding in Physics.


Newton's Laws

Name: ____________________________

Acceleration
1. A roller coaster car rapidly picks up speed as it rolls down a slope. As it starts down the slope, its speed is 4 m/s. But 3 seconds later, at the bottom of the slope, its speed is 22 m/s. What is the average acceleration?

New Worksheet - Geometry 1

Practice surface area calculations for squares and rectangles with this worksheet.


Geometry – Worksheet 1

Name: ____________________________


Surface Area of Rectangles

To determine the area of a rectangle, multiply the width by the length.

Find the solutions to the following problems:
1. A rectangle is 4.3 inches long and 7.5 inches wide. What is the area?
____________________


2. A rectangular board is 2.4 meters long and 0.18 meters wide. The cost for the board is 22 dollars per square meter. How much does this specific board cost?
____________________


3. A table is 1.3 meters long and 0.8 meters wide. A table cloth is being sewn for this table, and the table cloth is to hang down 0.2 meters on each side. What is the area of the table cloth?
____________________


4. The floor of a room is 25.5 meters long and 11.25 meters wide. It is being tiled with square tiles that have sides that are 0.75 meters long. How many tiles are needed to cover the entire floor?
