  1. 3. a physical quantity that is completely described by its magnitude (a single numerical value and unit) and lacks any direction
  2. 5. rate of change
  3. 9. the motion of an object when gravity is the only force acting upon it
  4. 11. one of the individual scalar quantities that, when combined, produce the resultant vecto
  5. 12. the rate at which an object covers distance, calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by the time it took to travel that distance
  6. 13. motion, speed, or velocity is not an absolute measurement but is determined in comparison to a specific frame of reference

  1. 1. the rate at which an object is moving at a specific moment in time, representing its speed at that particular instant, not over a period
  2. 2. duration between beginning and end of an event
  3. 4. total distance divided by total time
  4. 6. how much a specific quantity changes relative to another changing quantity, most often time, and is essentially a ratio of change
  5. 7. the rate of change of an object's displacement, or its speed in a particular direction
  6. 8. a single vector that represents the combined effect of two or more individual vectors, acting as their vector sum
