Describing Motion

3. a scalar quantity that refers to how much ground an object has covered
4. calculating one side of a triangle when an angle opposite and the other two sides are known
5. a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity
6. motion with a constant speed in a straight line
8. the acceleration at a specific point in time
9. known as x and y along graphs
11. it is the objects overall change in position
13. the measure of velocity of an object at a particular moment
14. when an object speeds up and its acceleration vector is in the same direction as its motion
15. the vector from adding two or more vectors
16. distance traveled divided by the time passed
20. when velocity is changed by a constant amount

1. the process of determining the magnitude of a vector
2. when an object slows down and its acceleration vector is in the opposite direction as its motion
7. when a body remains at rest or moves with constant linear velocity unless acted upon
10. a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving
12. a graph where the x axis represents time and the y axis represents velocity
17. the process of finding one vector that is equivalent to the result of two or more vectors
18. the motion of one body with the respect to another regarded as fixed
19. a graph where the x axis represents time and the y axis represents distance
21. are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude alone
22. a graph where the x axis represents time and the y axis represents acceleration
