Distance, Displacement, Speed, and Velocity
Students will define and differentiate between distance, displacement, speed, and velocity in one-dimensional motion.
Key Questions
- Differentiate between speed and velocity in various real-world scenarios.
- Explain how displacement can be zero even if distance traveled is significant.
- Predict the final position of an object given its initial position and velocity over time.
