400

When an object is in motion, it's position is changing. True or False?

True

400

What is the formula for average speed?

Average Speed=distance/elapsed time

400

What is projectile motion?

A form of motion where the object moves in a parabola.

500

500

"Horizontal motion is a factor of velocity, objects moving and they going pretty constantly. None of those forces acting on the object. Could it go forever? Well we thinking maybe possibly."
