Motion
2
How do we know something is moving?
7
Frame of Reference To tell an object is moving we must compare the object to something else. A reference point is an object used to determine another objects motion.
10
Motion Motion is the change in position of an object over time.
11
Speed/Rate and Velocity Speed/Rate is the distance an object moves in a certain period of time. Velocity is the speed of an object in a specific direction. To solve for speed, take the distance and divide the time.

13
Graphing Motion Line Graph-Time vs. Distance The slope of two points on the graph will tell you the speed.
15
Solving For Speed If Mr. Cleland runs 10 meters in 2 seconds, what is his speed? 5 m/s If Mr. Parke throws a baseball 12 meters in 4 seconds, what is the speed of the ball? 3 m/s
16
Time=distance/speed Distance=time x speed If Mr. Whiting runs 15 meters at a speed of 3 m/s, how long does it take him? 5 seconds If Ms. Hetrick runs for 5 seconds at a speed of 4 m/s, how far has she ran? 20 meters
17
Acceleration The rate speed/rate at which velocity changes. If speed or direction change. Acceleration is final speed – starting speed divided by time.
18
If Mrs. Greiser is driving and accelerates from 10 m/s to 16 m/s in 3 s, what is her acceleration? 2 m/s^2
