Green arrow meaning

The green arrow represents velocity in the given context.

Velocity definition

Velocity is the rate of change of an object's position with respect to time and direction.

Red arrow meaning

The red arrow represents the opposite of velocity, which is a change in direction or a part of velocity.

What is not velocity?

Acceleration and gravity are not velocity. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and gravity is a force that can influence velocity.

Study Notes

Circular Motion

  • The green arrows represent velocity.
  • Velocity is a vector quantity that describes both the speed and direction of motion. In circular motion, velocity is constantly changing direction as the object moves along a curved path.
