Distance
is the total length travelled by an object
Speed
is how fast something moves
Velocity
is speed with direction
The formula to calculate average speed is
distance
/
time
taken
Acceleration
is change in velocity over time
Motion
is described as the change in position of an object in a given period of time with respect to a given reference point.
Average velocity =

Velocity
tells how fast or how slow a motion is moving. It is measured in meters per second (m/s)
