Term | Definition |
Motion | An object in motion |
Reference Point | Is a place or object used for observation |
Distance | Is a length of a path |
Displacement | Is length and direction that an object has moved |
Vector | Displacement |
Distance | is scalar because it does not have a direction |
Displacement | is a vector because it does have a direction identified by an arrow |
Motion | is a change in position measured by distance and time |
Speed | Tells us the rate at which an object moves |
Velocity | tells the speed and direction of a moving object |
Acceleration | tells us the rate speed or direction changes |
Scalar | measurements that have magnitude , or size only |
work | A word that describes what is done on an object |
energy | The ability to do work or cause change |
kinetic energy | Energy that an object has due to its motion |
potential energy | Stored energy that results from the position or shape of an object |
gravitational potential energy | Potential energy related to an object's height |
elastic potential energy | The energy of stretched or compressed objects |
mechanical energy | An object's combined kinetic energy and potential energy |
Law of Conservation of Energy | The rule that energy cannot be created or destroyed |
