unit for speed | m/s |
force the pulls objects toward each other | gravity |
as this increases, inertia increases | mass |
the state at which an object's distance from position is changing | motion |
unit for time | seconds |
unit for distance | meters |
point from which movement is determined | frame of reference |
measurement from one point to the next | distance |
scientific unit is meters | distance |
distance and direction of object's change in position | displacement |
distance divided by time | speed |
units are m/s or km/hr | speed |
speed doesn't change | constant speed |
result of speeding up or slowing down changing speed | changing speed |
total distance traveled divided by total time of travel | average speed |
result of speedometer reading | instantaneous speed |
speed in a definite direction | velocity |

scientific unit is meters | DISTANCE |
speed in a definite direction | VELOCITY |
units are seconds or hours | TIME |
67.88 m/s to the store | VELOCITY |
an object to start moving, stop moving, or change direction | unbalanced force |
the resistance caused when one object is moved in contact with another | friction |
likely to maintain a state of rest unless acted upon by an external force | inertia |
a force opposes the motion of another object; making the object slow down, or giving it traction to get moving | friction |
do not change speed or direction | balanced forces |
resistance of fluid to flow | viscosity |
unit for speed | m/s |
the state at which an object's distance from position is changing | motion |
seconds | unit for time |
The car traveled 12.75 km down the road in 0.50 hours. Determine average speed. | F: s = d/t W: 12.75 km / 0.50 hours A: 25.50 km/hr |
Determine displacement of Mary participating in triathalon by swimming 2.00 km west, then runs 3.5 km west, then gets on a bike traveling 6.30 km. | F: displacement same direction = add, W: 2.00 km + 3.50 km + 6.30 km A; 11.80 km west |
units for distance | meters, kilometers, centimeters, millimeters |
