Reference Point• Def: a point that all motion will
be measured relative to the Starting Point
• This is the starting point.
Two Types of Units• ____________:–Unit includes only objects magnitude (numerical value)
Examples:____________________• ____________:
–Unit includes magnitude and direction
Example: going 100 mph to the East
Example:_____________________________________________________
Two Types of Units• Scalar:–Unit includes only objects magnitude (numerical value)
Example: speed, distance• Vector:
–Unit includes magnitude and direction
Example: going 100 mph to the East
Example: Velocity, acceleration, force, displacement,
Position• Def:____________________________________________________________–Symbol =_____–Unit = _______–Scalar or Vector?
• Use the position vs time graph to calculate the speed of the bug using s=d/t_______________
Position• Def: a point some distance and direction from my reference point–Symbol = x–Unit = meters (m)–Scalar
• Use the position vs time graph to calculate the speed of the bug using s=d/t_______________
Distance• Def:_______________________________________________________________
• Example: If Dallas was 100 miles away and I drove to and from Dallas, what would be my distance??_______ miles to Dallas?_______miles from DallasTotal miles driven (distance)?
___________
Distance• Def: refers to the total distance traveled
• Example: If Dallas was 100 miles away and I drove to and from Dallas, what would be my distance??_______ miles to Dallas?_______miles from DallasTotal miles driven (distance)?
___________
Displacement• Def:_____________________________
(Δx = xfinal – xinitial)=___________ – __________
Example: If Dallas was 100 miles away and I drove to and from Dallas, what would be my displacement?–Start point = ________–End point = _________–Displacement=____________
Displacement• Def: Refers to the change in position
(Δx = xfinal – xinitial)Finish pt – start pt
Example: If Dallas was 100 miles away and I drove to and from Dallas, what would be my displacement?–Displacement would be zero–Start point = Houston–End point = Houston

Distance vs. Time Graphs
Speed• Def:_______________________________________________________________–Scalar or Vector Quantity?–Unit:______________________–Slope of the distance vs. time graph
–Can be read directly off a speed vs. time graph
–Symbol:____
Speed• Def: How fast you change position (distance traveled per unit time)–Scalar Quantity–Unit: meters per second (m/s)
–Slope of the distance vs. time graph
–Can be read directly off a speed vs. time graph
–Symbol: s
Average Speed• Def:____________
__________________–Scalar or Vector?
–Unit: ________–Symbol: _______
What is the average speed of object in
graph?
Use Rise over run
__________________
Average Speed• Def: total
distance divided by total time–Scalar quantity–Unit: m/s–Symbol: s
What is the averageSpeed?
Rise over run2m/4sec = .5
m/sec
