* SPEED AND VELOCITY ** OBJECTIVES 1. Differentiate speed and velocit ** CONTENT *** SPEED Speed is simply how fast the object is moving or travelling the speed is a scalar quantity FORMULA = DIST ---- TIME *** VELOCITY Velocity gives you the speed WITH direction, the speed is a vector quantity, since they give you the magnitute as well VELOCITY = DISP ---- TIME NOTE: You can use the formula triangle, just look for one online since i cant include one here *** SI UNIT OF MEASUREMENT the SI unit of measurement is the one below meter/second or m/s (oh thy holy divines, please note this) *** KINDS OF SPEED AND VELOCITY |--------------------+------------------------| | Kinds of Speed | Kinds of velocity | |--------------------+------------------------| | constant speed | constant velocity | | average speed | average velocity | | instantenous speed | instantaneous velocity | |--------------------+------------------------| constant speed = same distance of same time constant velocity = same displacement at a particular time or direction average speed = total speed average velocity = displament speed?? instantenous speed = the speed or displacement of a particular time instantenous velocity = same thing but with direction
