1. Because PHYSICS! That’s why! An intro to Kinematics

2. Definitions Distance: The length of path traveled by an object. Displacement: The change in an objects position

3. Practice Distance today Displacement today Distance tomorrow Displacement tomorrow

4. Frodo’s Sam’s distance From the Shire to Rivendell? From Rivendell to Mt. Doom? “There and back again?”

5. Graph it!

7. Displacement Definition in Math!

8. Definitions Speed: The change in an objects distance over time. Velocity: The change in an objects displacement over time. (Speed and direction.)

9. Practice Speed? Velocity?

10. Graph it!

12. Velocity Definition in Math!

13. Definitions Acceleration: The change in an objects velocity over time. Deceleration: Negative Acceleration.

14. Velocity Definition in Math!

15. Negatives - Displacement - Velocity - Acceleration

16. Practice
