    Understanding Motion

    • Speed refers to how fast an object moves, whereas velocity refers to the rate of change of an object's position with respect to time in a specific direction.
    • Motion is best described as a change in the position of an object over time, which can be measured in terms of distance, displacement, speed, velocity, and acceleration.
    • Acceleration, in the context of motion, refers to a change in velocity, either in terms of speed or direction, which can be caused by a net force acting on an object.
