Motion

Cards (21)

  • Motion - continuous change in position with respect to a reference point for a particular time travel
  • Reference Point - starting point or origin for measuring motion
  • Distance - total length of the entire path
  • Scalar Quantity - single number indicating size magnitude or dimension. Specified by magnitude alone
  • Displacement - shortest distance
  • Vector Quantity - specified by a magnitude and direction.
  • Pyramid of formula
    A) Distance
    B) Time
    C) Speed
  • What formula?
    A) Velocity
  • What formula?
    A) displacement
  • Velocity - How fast an object is moving and to which direction.
  • Instantaneous - speed change
    Constant Speed - Does not change it’s speed
  • Velocity - How fast an object is moving and to which direction.
  • Acceleration - refers to the  rate of change in speed or velocity of an object. How quick an object speeds up or slows down
  • Positive Acceleration - increases
    Deceleration - Decrease
  • Formulas
    A) Acceleration
    B) Initial Velocity
    C) Final Velocity
    D) Time
    E) Distance
  • Pie Graph - shows value of variables
    Pictograph - shows data using pictures or symbols.
    Organizational Chart - show the overall workforce of a company.
    Flowchart - shows the representation of process

  • Diagrams - visual representations that explain an idea or info using symbols and pictures
    • Slope - in a graph gives  us an idea about the movement of an object.
    • Motion Graphs-Visual Representation that uses lines to show how to or more sets of measurements are related to each other.
  • Ticker timer - used to study motion of an object for a short period of time. Steel strip will vibrate, making 50 dots a second.
  • Ticker timer speed calculation
    A) time
    B) speed
