Main Concepts
Velocity is a vector quantity with a magnitude and direction.
Velocity is a measure of the speed of an object and the direction in which it travels.
SI units are a standard set of units of measurements that scientists use.
Scientific notation is used to more easily express and compare very large and very small numbers.
Motion is defined as the change in position of an object.
Motion can be described in terms of the position, velocity, and acceleration of an object.
Measured values are described in terms of units.
All motion is defined relative to a reference frame.
Acceleration is a vector quantity with a magnitude and direction.
Acceleration is a measure of the change in velocity of an object over an interval of time.
