Motion 7.P.1.1

Motion can be described with a reference direction such as North, South, East, West, up or down. The speed of an object is a measure of how quickly the object gets from one place to another.

Motion

Speed = Distance/Time

These variables are interchangeable.

The unit used matters.

In the US we use imperial units but the rest of the world uses metric.
