Across
- 4. The change in an object’s position from its starting point to its ending point
- 7. The velocity of an object at a single moment of time
- 9. How “fast” an object travels; the distance an object travels divided by the length of time travelled
- 11. The total length of the path travelled
- 12. the branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces which cause the motion.
- 14. The change in velocity per unit of time; occurs when an object increases or decreases its speed and/or changes the direction it is moving
- 15. A defined origin and axes that specify the directions (N, S, E, W; left, right, up, down)
- 16. The “steepness” of a straight line on a graph
- 18. A graph of motion with position on the y-axis and time on the x-axis
- 20. Initial Velocity is the velocity at time interval t = 0
Down
- 1. the velocity which the body has at the end of the given time period
- 2. Equations that tell the relationship between initial and final velocity, displacement, time, and acceleration; are only valid when acceleration is constant
- 3. existing or measured at a particular instant
- 5. The speed of an object at a single moment of time
- 6. Where an object is located relative to a frame of reference
- 8. A graph of motion with velocity on the y-axis and time on the x-axis
- 10. A quantity that has both magnitude an direction
- 13. A quantity that only has magnitude
- 17. An object’s displacement divided by the length of time travelled
- 19. the measure of how long something takes
