|---|---|
| the rate at which someone or something is able to move or operate. | Speed |
| the speed of something in a given direction. | Velocity |
| a quantity having direction as well as magnitude, especially as determining the position of one point in space relative to another. | Vector |
| the moving of something from its place or position. | Displacement |
| an amount of space between two things or people. | Distance |
| a surface of which one end or side is at a higher level than another; a rising or falling surface. | Slope |
| the speed of an object at one specific moment in time | instantaneous Speed |
| the action or process of moving or being moved. | Motion |
| a basis or standard for evaluation, assessment, or comparison; a criterion. | Reference Point |
| Is a measure of change in a period of time | Acceleration |
| a push or pull interaction between objects that can change an object's | Force |

| Law of Acceleration | Newton 2nd Law |
| Friction is the force opposing relative motion between two surfaces in contact, acting parallel to the interface. | Friction |
| a simplified, graphical tool used in physics and engineering to isolate a body from its surroundings, showing all external forces, moments, and reactions acting upon it | Free-body Diagram |
| the vector sum of all individual forces acting on an object, determining its acceleration and direction of motion | Net Force |
| Law of Inertia | Newton's First Law |
| When an object applies a force of the same object | Newton's 3rd Law of Motion |
| Is the force Two objects apply to each other | Force Pair |
