Formulas
100
An object in in this if its distance from another object is changing.
What is motion?
100
The distance that an object travels over a certain amount of time.
What is speed?
100
When you know both the speed and direction of an object, you know this?
What is velocity?
100
The rate at which velocity changes.
What is acceleration?
100
The formula for speed.
What is Distance/Time?
200
A place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion.
What is a reference point?
200
This measurement of length is needed to calculate both the speed and acceleration.
What is distance?
200
The steepness of a line on a graph.
What is slope?
200
The first of three ways an object is accelerating: whenever an object's speed increases.
What is increasing speed?
200
The formula for velocity?
What is Distance/Time in a direction?
300
The system of measurement accepted by scientists from all over the world.
What is the International System of Units (SI)?
300
How long something takes to move from place to place.
What is time?
300
The vertical difference between any two points on a line.
What is rise?
300
The second of three ways an object can accelerate: when an object slows down.
What is decreasing speed?
300
The formula for average speed?
What is Total Distance/Total Time?
400
The SI unit of length.
What is meter?
400
To find this, divide the total distance traveled by the total time.
What is average speed?
400
The horizontal distance between any two points on the line.
What is run?
400
The third way an object can accelerate: When an object turns.
What is changing direction?
400

What is Rise/Run?
500
The prefix used in the International System of Units that means "one hundredth?"
What is centi?
500
The rate at which an object is moving at a given instant in time.
What is instantaneous speed?
500
The steeper the slope of the graph, the ___________ the speed?
What is faster?
