Questions and Answers
Match the following physical concepts with their definitions:
Distance = The amount of space between two objects Motion = The process of changing position Force = A push or pull Position = The location of an object
Match the following terms with their meanings:
Direction = Tells which way a line points from one object or place to another Speed = The measure of how fast or slow something moves Friction = A type of force that occurs when one object rubs against another. It causes objects to slow down Motion = The process of changing position

Study Notes
Motion and Measurement Terms
- Velocity refers to the measure of how fast or slow something moves, including both speed and direction.
- Distance is the amount of space between two objects, reflecting how far apart they are.
Forces and Interactions
- Friction is defined as the force that occurs when one object rubs against another, leading to resistance that slows down motion.
- The process of changing position is known as motion.
Direction and Descriptors
- Direction describes which way a line points from one object or place to another, indicating the path of movement.
Force Dynamics
- Balanced forces occur when two equal forces act upon an object in opposite directions, resulting in no change in motion.
- Unbalanced forces happen when one force is greater than the opposing force, causing a change in an object's motion or direction.
