Today’s Agenda 1. Clicker Quiz 2. Vocabulary discussion for constant motion 3. Vocabulary discussion for non-constant motion 4. Mathematical expressions for motion
Vocab Review – Constant Motion What do we mean when we say that something is moving constantly? What words are associated with this idea?
Speed and Velocity What is speed? How is a car’s speed measured (what units)? What does this mean?
Speed and Velocity MPH = miles per hour = miles / hour 60 miles per hour = 60 miles / 1 hour
Velocity, Distance, Time Formula 60 miles per hour = 60 miles / 1 hour So … Velocity = distance / time or Velocity = change in distance / change in time Velocity = Δd /Δt
Vocab Review – Changing Motion What do we mean when we say that something is moving but not constantly? What words are associated with this idea?
Acceleration What is acceleration? How do we measure acceleration? What does this mean?
Acceleration, Velocity, Time Formula Acceleration = velocity / time or Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time Velocity = Δv /Δt
