A tool that measures distances up to one meter, marked in millimeters and centimeters.

A measuring tool that is 3 feet long, often flat and rectangular.

A flexible tool used for measuring longer distances around curves.

An instrument that measures large distances, primarily for vehicles, in kilometers or miles.

Steps to measure distance using a ruler: align zero to starting point and read the ending point.

Short distances use rulers; long distances use tools like odometers.

Reference points used to measure the distance in a measurement example.

Using the correct measuring tool ensures accurate distance readings.

Distance can be measured using tools like rulers, meter sticks, or measuring tapes.

A device used to measure time intervals, with start, stop, and reset functions.

A clock that shows time with rotating hands over a dial with numbers.

The short hand on an analog clock that indicates the current hour.

The long hand on an analog clock that indicates the current minutes.

The thin, fast-moving hand on an analog clock that counts seconds.

The divisions on an analog clock indicating hours and minutes—12 sections total.

The speed of an object in a specific direction, measured in m/s or km/h.

The distance and direction of an object's change in position from its starting point.

The total length of the path traveled by an object, regardless of direction.

When an object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time without changing speed.

To find time, use the formula: time = distance / velocity.

Displacement can be calculated using the formula: displacement = velocity × time.

The rate at which an object covers distance, without regard to direction, typically measured in m/s or km/h.

An arrow travels 15 meters at a speed of 3 m/s; it takes 5 seconds to reach the target.

Speed (s) is calculated as distance (d) divided by time (t): s = d/t.

Common units used to measure speed include meters per second (m/s), kilometers per hour (kph), and miles per hour (mph).

The speed of an object can be affected by factors like distance and time taken to cover it.

To describe a moving object, consider its speed, direction, and changes during movement.

An object traveling twice the distance in the same time is said to be moving faster than another object.

A mobile application used to observe and practice concepts of speed and movement through a game.

The process of determining the distance covered based on speed and time.

Speed is calculated as distance divided by time; S = d/t.

Velocity is speed with a specific direction; v = d/t.

To convert km to miles, multiply kilometers by 0.62.

If walking at 3 km/h, how far would you go in 4 hours?

The time spent moving at a certain speed.

Velocity includes speed and direction; is true.

A fast object covers more distance in less time.

The duration of a period or how long an object is moving.

The rate of change of velocity of a moving object.

d = s*t where d is distance, s is speed, and t is time.

v = d/t where v is velocity, d is displacement, and t is time.

a = (v_f - v_i)/t where a is acceleration, v_f is final velocity, and v_i is initial velocity.
