Motion occurs when an object changes its position. K What I Know W What I Want to Find Out L What I Learned Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education

Section 1: Position describes where an object is, and speed describes how fast the object is moving. Section 2: An object’s velocity describes the object’s speed and direction of motion. Section 3: Acceleration describes how the velocity of an object is changing with time.

Essential Questions How are distance and displacement different? How is an object’s speed calculated? What information does a distance-time graph provide? What is the difference between speed and velocity? How is the motion of two objects relative to each other described? How can an object’s momentum be calculated? How are acceleration, time, and velocity related? What are three ways an object can accelerate? How can an object’s acceleration be calculated?
