Term Definition
an object is in motion when its distance from another object is changing motion
a reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion reference point
system based on the number 10 International System of Units (ISU)
meter basic unit of length
speed = distance / time equation for speed
the speed of an object is the distance the object travels in one unit of time speed
speed in a given direction is called velocity velocity
major pieces of the Earth's upper crust plates
Earth's plates move ever so slowly in various directions the theory of plate tectonics is-
distance = speed X time equation for distance
acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes acceleration
acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time equation for acceleration
