Differentiate between Speed, Velocity and acceleration
Learn Speed, Velocity & Acceleration: Definitions, Differences, and Real-World Examples!
Speed, Velocity and Acceleration video. Watch the video, taking notes over the difference between speed, velocity and acceleration. Create a chart using your notes over speed, velocity and acceleration.In the first column place speed. Below speed, find the definition and then the unit of measurement.In the second column place velocity. Below velocity, find the definition and then the unit of measurement.In the last column place acceleration. Below acceleration, find the definition and the unit of measurement. Speed Velocity Acceleration The rate at which an object changes position. A vector measurement of the speed and direction of motion. The rate of change (velocity) per unit time. Speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. distance / timemeters meters / sec to (some direction) meters / sec^2 Given real world scenarios, identify each scenario as speed, velocity, or acceleration.Drag the scenario to the correct word (speed, velocity or acceleration). Speed The horse ran 44 mph to win the race. The track team ran 3 miles in 28 minutes. The distance an object travels over time. The hot air balloon floats at 5 meters per second Velocity The geese fly 23 mph to the south when they migrate for the winter. The plane is traveling at 500 mph to the north. The tornado is traveling northwest at 20 mph. A baseball thrown 90 miles per hour toward home plate. Speed in a given direction. The GPS in a car indicated that it is travelling North West at 55 mph. Acceleration The motorcycle slowed down as it approached the stop sign. The race car sped into the turn as it went around the track. Includes speeding up, slowing down and changing direction. Golf ball coming to a stop in a sand-trap. A cheetah going from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 10.3 seconds as it hunts another animal for food.
