Three physical quantities of kinematics:
Position, x - Where an object is located = how far and whatdirection from origin
Velocity, v - How fast an object is going and direction motion =speed and from its current position what direction is it goingtowards. Also, slope of the position-versus-time graph.

Velocity, v - How fast an object is going and direction motion =speed and from its current position what direction is it goingtowards. Also, slope of the position-versus-time graph.
Acceleration, a - The rate at which velocity is changing. Hassame sign as velocity for speeding up. Opposite sign forslowing down. Slope of the velocity-versus-time graph.
