Distance
A scalar quantity representing the total length of the path traveled.
Displacement
A vector quantity that refers to the change in position of an object, including direction.
What is the formula for calculating displacement?
Displacement = Final position - Initial position
Speed
A scalar quantity defined as the rate at which an object covers distance.
Velocity
A vector quantity that refers to the rate at which an object changes its position, including direction.
Acceleration
The rate of change of velocity over time.
What is the equation for speed?
Speed = d / t, where d is distance and t is time.
What does the slope of a Distance-Time graph represent?
Speed.
Momentum
The product of an object's mass and its velocity, represented as p = m × v.
Conservation of Momentum
The principle stating that the total momentum of a closed system before a collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision.
Elastic Collision
A type of collision where kinetic energy is conserved.
Inelastic Collision
A type of collision where the colliding objects stick together and kinetic energy is not conserved.
What is Newton's First Law?
Objects stay at rest or move with constant velocity unless acted upon by a net external force.
Newton's Second Law
F = ma, which states that Force equals mass times acceleration.
(Δv*M)/Δt
F = Δp / Δt, where F is force, Δp is change in momentum, and Δt is the change in time.what is the equation
