Motion
Term | Definition |
---|---|
Acceleration | Equals the change in Velocity divided by the time for the change to take place occurs when an object speeds up slows down or turns |
Average Speed | Equals the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken to travel the distance |
Displacement | Includes the distance between the starting and ending points and the direction in which you travel |
Inertia | Tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion |
Instantaneous Speed | The speed of an object at one instant of time |
Law of Conservation of Momentum | States that the total momentum of objects that collide with each other is the same before and after the collision |
Mass | Amount of matter in an object |
Momentum | A measure of how difficult it is to stop a moving object equals the product of mass and velocity |
Speed | Equals the distance traveled divided by the time it takes to travel that distance |
Velocity | A speed and direction of a moving object |
