Motion | when an object changes its position relative to a reference point. |
Distance | how far an object has moved |
Displacement | distance and direction of an object's change of position from a starting point. |
Speed | distance an object travels per unit of time |
Rate | any change over time. |
Speed equation | V=distance/time |
Constant speed | speed that doesn't change over time. |
Average speed | speed of motion when speed is changing. |
Average speed equation | total distance/total time |
Instantaneous speed | speed at any given point in time. |
Graph-distance | plot on vertical axis |
Graph-time | plot on horizontal axis |
Velocity | speed AND direction of an objects motion. |
