Unit 1 - Constant Velocity

Week 1

Key Vocabulary

• Distance - How far something has traveled. The direction doesn't matter, it is the sum of all individual distances
• Displacement (delta X) - Change in Position
  • Displacement = final position- initial position
  • displacement can be either positive or negative
• Speed - distances traveled over some time interval
• Velocity- The change in position over some time interval
• time interval - How much time passes during a measurement
