Science Chapter 1
sec. 1-3 notes
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Motion | When the distance between one object and another changes. |
| Reference Point | |
| When is an object moving? | When it's distance from a reference point is changing. |
| International System of Units | System of measuring that all scientists use. (SI) |
| How do you find speed? | Distance -------- Time |
| Velocity | Speed in a given direction. (When you know the speed and direction of an object you know the velocity.) |
| Constant speed | When an objects speed stays the same. |
| How do you find distance? | Distance X Time |
| When you want to find out the distance will travel in a certain amount of time and you know it's speed what is the formula? | Distance X Time |
| Acceleration | Final velocity - Initial velocity --------------------------------- Time |
| FACTS- Acceleration in everyday terms is the process of speeding up | FACTS- increasing speed, decreasing speed, or change in direction are all ways an object can accelerate |
