  • 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 plus
  • 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
