| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| reference point | a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion |
| distance SI Unit | measures the length of a path between two points |
| speed | The distance an object moves per unit of time. |
| Average speed | Calculate the total distance traveled by the total time. (speed=Distance/time) |
| instantaneous speed | The speed at which an object is moving at a given instant in time. |
| velocity | speed in a given direction. if you know the speed and direction of an object, then you know the velocity |
| Graphing motion | plotting time on the x-axis (horizontal axis), and distance on y-axis (vertical axis). |
| slope | is the steepness of the line, shows how fast one variable changes in relation to the other variable. slope= Rise/Run |
