Motion Vocab

Constant speed is

• the distance an object move divided by the time it takes to move that distance.

• the rate of change of position in which the same distance is traveled each second.

• an object's speed at a specific instant in time.

• the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken to travel that distance.

Motion

• The starting point you use to describe the motion or position of an object.

• The object's distance and direction from a reference point.

• The process of changing position.

• The difference between the initial, or starting, position and the final position of an object that has moved.

The starting point you use to describe the motion or the position of an object.

Velocity is

• the distance an object moves divided by the time it takes to move that distance.

• the rate of change of position in which the same distance is traveled each second.

• an object's speed at a specific instant in time.

• the speed and the direction of a moving object.
