Distance and DisplacementDistance and Displacement

Distance:Distance: how far an object has moved how far an object has movedkm, m, cm, etc.km, m, cm, etc.Displacement:Displacement: distance AND direction of distance AND direction of

object from starting pointobject from starting point

SpeedSpeed

Speed:Speed: distance traveled in a certain distance traveled in a certain amount of timeamount of time

Constant vs. Changing SpeedConstant vs. Changing Speed If speed is If speed is constantconstant – can calculate speed – can calculate speed

over any distance – it’ll be the same!over any distance – it’ll be the same! Usually speed is changingUsually speed is changing

bothbothSpeeding up Speeding up + acceleration+ accelerationSlowing down Slowing down -- acceleration -- accelerationSpeed is changing = accelerationSpeed is changing = acceleration

AccelerationAcceleration

+ acc. = going in + acc. = going in same direction as same direction as velocityvelocity

-- acc. = going in -- acc. = going in opposite direction as opposite direction as velocityvelocity

AccelerationAcceleration

Changing direction is Changing direction is changing velocity and changing velocity and accelerationacceleration

Speed is constantSpeed is constant
