Motion

At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:

• Define motion.
• State the types of motion and give examples of each.
• Define scalar and vector quantities and distinguish between them.
• Classify common physical quantities as scalars or vectors.
• Determine the position of objects using Cartesian coordinates.
• Define distance and displacement and distinguish between them.
• Define speed, velocity and acceleration and state their SI units.
• Solve simple problems involving distance, displacement, speed, velocity and acceleration.
