Speed: The time rate of motion Slope = change in distance/change in time (rise/run) Scalar: the distance moved per unit of time Average speed (scalar): the ratio of the total distance traveled to the total time Total distance/elapsed time (m/s) Instantaneous speed (scalar): the speed of an object at a particular moment in time The slope of the line that is tangent to the curve at a given point Velocity (vector): speed in a particular direction Average velocity (vector): the total displacement divided by the total elapsed time Displacement /Elapsed time = (?x)/ (?t) Instantaneous velocity: The speed and direction an object moves at a particular moment in time
