Motion
| Word | Definition |
|---|---|
| Acceleration | Increase of speed or velocity. |
| Average Speed | The total distance traveled divided by the total time elapsed. |
| Inertia | Inertness,especially with regard to effort,motion,action,and the like, inactivity,sluggishness. |
| Law Of Conservation Of Momentum | Fundamental law of physics which states that the momentum of a system is constant if there are no external forces acting. |
| Mass | A body of coherent matter, usually of indefinite shape and often of considerable size. |
| Momentum | Force or speed of movement,impetus,as of a physical object or course of events. |
| Speed | Rapidity in moving,going,traveling,proceeding,or performing, swiftness. |
| Velocity | The rate of speed with which something happens; rapidity of action or reaction. |
| Instantaneous Speed | If velocity is a function of time, then you can calculate the instantaneous velocity for any time,by plugging the value of t into the equation. |
| Displacement | Displaced or the amount or degree to which something is displaced. |
