| Instantaneous Speed | measurement of an objects speed at an exact moment in time |
| Average Speed | total distance traveled divided by the total time the object took |
| Distance | measurement of how far an object moves in total |
| Displacement | distance and direct an object moves from a starting point |
| Velocity | measurement of an objects speed and direction |
| Vector | measurement that contains both a magnitude and a direction |
