HESI A2 – Physics Exam 2025 Questions
and Answers
Average Speed - ANSWER✔✔-the distance an object travels divided by the time the object travels
without regard to direction of travel
average speed = d/t
Velocity - ANSWER✔✔-refers to speed in a specific direction
Scalar Quantity - ANSWER✔✔-quantity described simply by a numeric value and is expressed in
units of magnitude
Vector Quantity - ANSWER✔✔-quantity describing the time rate of change of an object's position
and must be expressed in both units of magnitude and direction of motion
Average Velocity - ANSWER✔✔-determined by averaging the initial speed and the final speed of
the object
Acceleration - ANSWER✔✔-the rate of change in velocity over a period of time
Projectile Motion - ANSWER✔✔-it is possible for an object to display two types of motion
simultaneously
