1 Speed, Velocity, & Acceleration

2 Speed The distance traveled by an object in a given amount of time.
Image: Definition:

3 Formula for Speed S = D ÷ T Time is measured in: seconds, min, hours
Speed = Distance / Time S = D ÷ T Time is measured in: seconds, min, hours It is graphed on the: x-axis Distance is measured in: centimeters, meters, kilometers It is graphed on the: y-axis Speed is expressed in: m/s (meters per second)

4 Velocity Speed + Direction
The distance traveled by an object in a given amount of time in a particular direction. Speed + Direction

5 Acceleration The rate at which an object’s speed and/or directions changes over time. Images: & Definition:

6 Acceleration is expressed
m/s2
