Question
Answer
The rate at which speed or velocity of a system increases in a given amount of time.   acceleration  
🗑
A scalar quantity that shows the linear dimension a object moved during a time interval.   distance  
🗑
A numeric amount that describes the total distance and direction of motion. It is shown graphically with a vector whose tail is the starting point and the tip is the end point.   displacement  
🗑
A system of reference points and coordinate axis from which the position and motion of an object can be determined.   frame of reference  
🗑
The span of time during which a phenomenon is observed. It is calculated by final time minus initial time.   interval  
🗑
The branch of mechanics that describes how things move. It includes measurements and calculations of velocity, acceleration, position, time, and displacement within a frame of reference.   kinematics  
🗑
The scientific study of motion and forces which includes kinematics, dynamics, and statics.   mechanics  
🗑
The metric unit of weight in kilogram meters per second per second.   Newton  
🗑
A study of a part of the universe separately from its surroundings by an boundary that is actual or imaginary.   system  
🗑
The rate at which an object changes position.   speed  
🗑
The rate at which an object changes position in a specified direction.   velocity  
🗑
