Concept Summary

5. measurement of how far apart objects or points are
7. the derivative of the position vs. time graph of an object is equal to the velocity of the object
10. describes the way a function changes
11. a quantity that has both magnitude and direction
12. A longer length of time can be divided into a number of shorter periods of time, all of the same length
14. physical quantities that are unaffected by changes to a vector space basis
16. a vector quantity that measures the speed and direction of a moving body after it has reached its maximum acceleration
19. a relationship between two quantities where they increase or decrease at the same rate
20. the time rate at which an object is moving a long a path

1. a course along which someone or something moves
2. the locus of a point that moves such that its distance from a fixed straight line called the directrix is equal to its distance from a fixed point called the focus.
3. the progression of events from the past to the present
4. Units of position
6. the velocity of the object before the effect of acceleration, which causes the change
8. Slope of a Velocity vs Time Graph
9. Units of Time
13. Slope of a Position vs Time Graph
15. Area under a Velocity v Time Graph
17. the motion that is natural to an object: moving in a straight line
18. information collected using specific methods for a specific purpose of studying or analyzing.
