Front

What is motion defined as in physics?

Back

A change in position relative to a reference point.

Front

What does a steeper slope on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

Higher speed.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Velocity includes direction, while speed does not.

Front

What is speed?

Back

The distance traveled per unit of time, regardless of direction.

Front

What is velocity?

Back

The speed of an object in a specific direction.

Front

What does a flat line on a distance-time graph represent?

Back

No movement.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

The rate of change of velocity over time.

Front

What is the formula for calculating speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is a reference point?

Back

A stationary object used to determine the position of another object.

Front

What is the significance of a distance-time graph?

Back

It visually represents the motion of an object over time.
