What are some key words used when we describe motion? Example of a Vector Quantity: any quantity that specifies direction and magnitude (number) Arrows are often used to represent the direction of a vector quantity.

What are some key words used when we describe motion? The size of the arrow represents the magnitude of the quantity Ex. Bigger arrow would mean the object was moving faster than one represented with a smaller arrow
