1. Motion
Chapter 10

2. Describe how your motion has changed as you moved from the school’s entrance into the classroom.

3. Example: Rashaad travaled 20 meters.
Write a sentence that uses the word METER to show its scientific meaning.
Example: Rashaad travaled 20 meters.

4. Motion
All matter is constantly in motion.
Motion involves a change in position.

5. Position
The car is to the right of the tree. The tree does not move. The car must have moved from one place to another. Therefore, here the tree is considered as the frame of reference.
frame of reference – coordinate system used to define motion. An object changes position if it moves in relationship to the frame of reference or reference point.

6. Position reference point– zero location in a frame of reference.
The car is to the right of the tree. The tree does not move. The car must have moved from one place to another. Therefore, here the tree is considered as the frame of reference.
frame of reference – coordinate system used to define motion.
reference point– zero location in a frame of reference.
position – separation between an object and the reference point

9. PART ONE DISTANCE & DISPLACEMENT

10. Distance
a measure of the interval between two locations measured along the actual path connecting them

11. Displacement
a vector measure of the interval between two locations measured along the shortest path connecting them

12. Distance vs. Displacement

13. PART TWO SPEED & VELOCITY

22. Types of Speed
Average speed is the total distance traveled divided by total time taken.
An object’s speed at a particular moment in time is called instantaneous speed.
Constant speed occurs when an object travels at a steady rate with the same instantaneous speed for some period of time.
