New cards

Position

a place where someone or something is located or has been put

2
New cards

Displacement

the change in position of an object

3
New cards

Vector

a quantity or phenomenon that has two independent properties: magnitude and direction

4
New cards

Speed

how fast an object is moving (scalar quantity)

5
New cards

Velocity

the directional speed of an object in motion as an indication of its rate of change in position as observed from a particular frame of reference and as measured by a particular standard of time

6
New cards

Average Velocity (ˉv)

the change in position or displacement (∆x) divided by the time intervals (∆t) in which the displacement occurs

7
New cards

Acceleration

the rate at which the object changes its velocity
