What is motion?

Back

Motion is the change in position of an object over time relative to a reference point.

Front

What is a motion map?

Back

A motion map is a visual representation that shows the position of an object at different times, often using arrows to indicate direction and speed.

Front

What is a velocity graph?

Back

A velocity graph plots an object's velocity against time, showing how the speed and direction of the object change over time.

Front

What does it mean for two objects to have the same position?

Back

It means that both objects are located at the same point in space at a given time.

Front

What does it mean for two objects to have the same velocity?

Back

It means that both objects are moving at the same speed and in the same direction.

Front

What is acceleration?

Back

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, which can be positive (speeding up) or negative (slowing down).

Front

What is a reference point?

Back

A reference point is a stationary object or location used to determine the position of another object.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving, while velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction.

Front

What does a flat line on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

A flat line indicates that the object is at rest and not changing its position over time.

Front

What does a steep slope on a distance-time graph indicate?

Back

A steep slope indicates that the object is moving quickly, covering a large distance in a short amount of time.
