a change in position measured by distance and time
motion
tells us the rate at which an object moves
speed
tells the speed and direction of a moving object
velocity
tells us the rate speed or direction changes
acceleration
time is increasing to the right, but distance does not change
we say it is at rest
shown by straight lines on a graph
constant speed
a steeper line indicates a larger distance moved in a given time. In other words,
higher speed
since the line is getting steeper, we call it a
increase in speed
in a given time the distance the object moves is getting larger or decreasing. it is
accelerating
