Across
- 5. a quantity having direction as well as magnitude, especially as determining the position of one point in space relative to another.
- 6. the steepness of a straight line on a graph
- 8. represents the position, velocity, and acceleration of an object at various clock readings
- 10. the speed of an object at a particular moment in time.
- 14. the overall rate at which an object moves in a particular direction; total displacement divided by the time interval during which the displacement occurs
- 15. change in position from the starting position to the ending position; a vector quantity
- 18. used to determine if an object is accelerating, decelerating, or moving at a constant speed.
- 19. represents the change in velocity.
- 20. the state of an object being stationary relative to a particular frame of reference or another object.
- 21. speed that does not change
Down
- 1. a set of four equations that can be utilized to predict unknown information about an object's motion if other information is known.
- 2. when an object changes position over time when compared to a reference point
- 3. the limit of the average velocity as the elapsed time approaches zero
- 4. increase in the rate or speed of something.
- 7. how far an object has traveled from its starting position at any given time since it started moving
- 9. velocity that does not change over time
- 11. a physical quantity that is completely described by its magnitude
- 12. how fast something moves; an expression of how much time it takes for a change in position to occur; rate of motion; rate of change of position
- 13. the speed of an object in a particular direction; ratio of change in position to time interval over which change takes place.
- 16. shows the speed and direction an object travels over a specific period of time.
- 17. the separation of two points; the actual distance traveled; a scalar quantity
