distance divided by time
what does distance do
it measures the path taken
what is constant speed
when the speed doesn't change
what is displacement
the change of something from it's place or position
a bike racer finishes a 100m race in 50 s
2m/s
what is the first step to find velocity
list the given values
can distance move in any specific direction
yes, distance can be a straight line or not
how do you find speed
distance divided by time
displacement has to be what
in a straight line and in a specific direction
Find the velocity in m/s of a football thrown 149 m from the 50 yard line to the 100 year line in 2.1 s
70.95m/s
what is velocity
the speed of something in a certain direction
what is distance
the amount of space between two things
what is the SI unit for speed
m per second
what is the displacement formula
velocity times time
the speed of the plane was 20 m/s. How far did the plane travel in 5 seconds?
100m
what is the third step to find velocity
insert the know values and solve
how do you find the distance between two things
velocity * time
what is the speeds measurement
distance and time
is the displacement shorter or longer then the distance
the displacement is typically shorter than the distance unless the distance is a straight line
Find the speed of a shark swimming in the ocean if the shark travels 48 m in 70 seconds.
0.69m/s
what is the difference between speed and velocity
speed is the time rate the object is moving at and velocity is the time rate the object is moving at and the direction in which it is moving
what is the difference between distance and displacement
distance can be anywhere and displacement has to be in a specific direction
what is speed
how fast something moves
what is the SI unit for displacement
Meter (m)
Find the speed of a volleyball hit 50 m from the server line to the net in 2.2 s
22.72m/s
