3. graph: a graph showing position as a function of time (also known as a position vs. time graph).
6. a measure of how much an object's position changes in a specified amount of time.
7. the total length of the path traveled between two positions.
8. a vector that is the sum of two or more vectors.
9. a quantity having both magnitude and direction.
10. motion in which the position does not change the same amount each time.
12. straight-line motion in which the position changes the same amount in each time interval.
13. a motion diagram in which each position of the moving object of interest is represented as a single point.
14. a quantity with magnitude or size,but no defined direction
15. Depicts the absolute or relative direction or size in which an object moves direction or size of motion. (generally refers to distance or quantity).

1. the projection of a vector quantity along an axis in a coordinate system.
2. the change in position of an object.
3. a measure of where an object is at a particular time with respect to some reference point.
4. a coordinate system with a constant speed and direction.
5. a measure of how much distance an object travels in a specified amount of time.
11. a diagram that shows an object's position at several equally spaced moments in time.
