Lecture 2.1: Describing Position 8th Grade Science Ms. McKinley

Describing Position In order to describe an object’s motion, you must first be able to describe its POSITION. POSITION: where an object is located You describe position all the time!

How do you describe the position of an object? You need 3 things: A REFERENCE POINT DISTANCE from the reference point DIRECTION from the reference point

For Example… How would you describe the position of the house?? The house is 15 METERS EAST of the APPLE TREE. 15 METERS

Essential Question Why is it important to use a reference point when describing position?
