New cards

scalar

  • magnitude

  • distance

  • speed

  • no directions

2
New cards

scalar formula

  • V = speed

  • d = distance

  • v = d/t

3
New cards

vector

  • magnitude and direction

  • displacement

  • velocity

  • vector arrow above symbol

4
New cards

vector formula

  • v→ = velocity

  • Δd→ = displacement

  • Δv→=Δd→/t

5
New cards

distance

  • How far an object travels (Magnitude)

  • origin to all points

  • scalar

6
New cards

speed

  • Distance/Time

  • How far an object travels in a certain amount of time (seconds)

  • scalar

7
New cards

displacement

  • How far an object travels in a certain direction from certain point

  • origin to final point (shortest length)

  • Magnitude
