Speed vs.Velocity Speed (s) is the distance an object travels per unit of time (rate). Speed (s) is the distance an object travels per unit of time (rate). Velocity (v) describes the speed and direction of a moving object. Velocity (v) describes the speed and direction of a moving object.

Velocity Objects undergoing motion will either have a constant or changing velocity Objects undergoing motion will either have a constant or changing velocity constant velocity = not speeding up or slowing down. constant velocity = not speeding up or slowing down. changing velocity = speeding up or slowing down. changing velocity = speeding up or slowing down.

Constant / Zero Velocity Distance (m) Time (s) Constant velocity Zero Velocity

Changing Velocity Distance (m) Time (s) Speed up Slow Down

Average Velocity When working with a constant velocity, we use the following equation. When working with a constant velocity, we use the following equation. ν avg =Δx / Δt Velocity Displacement Time Δ = change

Sample Problem What is the velocity of a runner that can travel 10 m in 5 seconds? What is the velocity of a runner that can travel 10 m in 5 seconds? ν avg =Δx / Δt ν avg = 10 m/5 s ν avg = 2 m/s

Acceleration changes velocity Acceleration (a): the rate of change of velocity. Acceleration (a): the rate of change of velocity. Objects can accelerate in both the + and - direction. Objects can accelerate in both the + and - direction. Velocity Time
