Movement
This is needed to determine the position of an object.
What is a reference point?
______________________ is how far something travels.
What is distance?
If two objects are dropped and thrown down at the same time they will hit the ground at the same time due to ______________.
What is gravity?
____________________ includes the speed of an object and the direction of the object.
What is velocity?
The x-axis and y-axis are set __________________ to each other and intersect at a point.
What is perpendicular?
This is a change in an object's position relative to a reference point.
What is motion?
This is the SI unit for distance?
This is the curved path made by an object that is thrown through the air.
What is projectile motion?
______________ is how fast an object is moving. It is calculated taking distance divided by time.
The motion of an object over a period of time can be represented in a Distance v. Time Graph. ________________ is on the x-axis and ________________ is on the y-axis.
What is time and distance?
This is a coordinate system in which the position of the object is measured.
What is a frame of reference?
______________________ is how far an object travels and the direction of the object’s change in position.
What is displacement?
______________________acceleration is acceleration towards the center of a curved or circular path.
What is centripetal?
This is the rate of change of velocity.
What is acceleration?
If an object comes to a stop or at rest, the line will be horizontal for that period of time because time is continuing but motion is not. Slope is zero so _______________ is zero.
What is speed?
Change in position includes a change in ____________ and also a change in _____________.
What is distance and displacement?
When adding displacements, we should ___________ displacements in the same direction and ___________ displacements in the opposite direction.
What is add and subtract?
If change in velocity is positive, acceleration is ________________ and the object is speeding up. If change in velocity is negative, acceleration is ________________ is negative and the object is slowing down.
What is positive and negative?
___________________ is how fast an object is moving at a given point in time.
What is instantaneous speed?
When a right triangle is created and we know 2 sides, we can use a theorem called the ___________________ theorem to determine the third side length.
What is the Pythagorean Theorem?
The choice of ______________________ determines how you describe motion in turn motion is relative to (depends on) each person.
What is a reference point?
When something has both a magnitude and a direction, we call it a _________________________.
What is a vector?
If we look at the view of earth from 250 million years ago, we see that our continental position has changed drastically. This is referred to as ______________________.
What is continental drift?
This describes the quantity of motion of a moving object which is calculated by multiplying mass and velocity.
What is momentum?
The Pythagorean Theorem is written as ___________________.
What is a^2 + b^2 = c^2?
