Position, Motion, Speed and Velocity

Average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken.

Speed = distance / time.

Motion is the change in position of an object over time.

A reference point is a stationary object used to determine if something else is moving.

Velocity is the speed of an object in a specific direction.

Speed is a scalar quantity (magnitude only), while velocity is a vector quantity (magnitude and direction).

Net force is the sum of all forces acting on an object, taking into account their directions.

Balanced forces are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in motion.

Unbalanced forces cause an object to accelerate or change its motion.

Distance is the total path length traveled by an object, regardless of direction.
