Motion

Mr. Anderson explains motion in AP Physics Essentials Video 38. He uses a tennis ball and meter stick to demonstrate motion, then employs Galileo's inclined plane method for clearer observation. The video covers scalar and vector quantities, graphing displacement, velocity, and acceleration, and emphasizes the importance of frame of reference. The video concludes with designing experiments to test motion.

How does the velocity of the tennis ball change as it rolls down the inclined plane?
