Motion
- continous change in position
Distance
- total length of the entire path that the body travelled in moving from one place to another
Scalar
- has magnitude but does not have direction
Displacement
- shortest distance between the objects initial and final position
Speed
- refers to how far an object moves in a given time interval
What is the formula to get speed?
s
=
d
/
Average
- refers to the speed of an object throughout its travel (totality)
Instantaneous Speed
- refers to the speed of an object at particular instant and changes speed and second/hour
Constant speed
- refers to the instantaneous speed of an object that are the same and doesnt change speed
Speedometer
- device use to measure instantaneous speed of a vehicle
Velocity
- refers to how fast an object is moving and which quantity
What is the formula to get speed?
V
=
d>
/
t
Is velocity scalar?
False
Is speed vector?
False
Acceleration -
change in speed
or
velocity
Galileo Galilei
- "father of Modern Science", first to analayze the motion of free falling body
Positive Acceleration
- increase in speed and velocity
Deceleration
- decrease in speed and velocity
What is the formula to get acceleration?
a
=
vf - vi / time
What unit do we use for acceleration?
m/s²
If the distance has the same direction, to find the displacement, do we add or subtract?
Subtract
How do we get the total distance?
Add
Vector
- has magnitude and direction
What is the formula of Phythagorean Theory?
The square root
of
a²
plus
b²
Emily walked 5m, West to get Mcdonalds and walked 6m, East to get to the bus. What is the displacement?
1m
Physche went running at a distance of 120m in 30s. What was Physche's average speed?
4 m/s
