5. How Far? 0 The Flash’s position Increasing positive position Increasing negative position Position, velocity, and acceleration require reference points.

6. Distance How do you define distance? Does it require a reference point? 0

7. Distance How do you define distance? Does it require a reference point? 0 No. Distance is how far 2 points are separated. It’s an example of a scalar quantity. Velocity and acceleration are vector quantities.

8. How Fast? The Flash runs 1000 m in 3 s What’s his average velocity? 0 1000 m
