Motion vocab terms & videos; Marble Lab Part II

-Tutorial today & Thursday in C13
Stay on top of your work, this is the time to do it! Do yourself a huge favor and don't get behind.

WARM UP 2/3/16 (left side)
Define the following terms in your own words:
(take a peek back at your notes if needed)
1. distance
2. displacement
3. velocity
4. speed
5. momentum
6. acceleration
7. inertia


Video on distance and displacement HERE, and video on speed and velocity HERE



1. distance - the length of the path traveled by an object
2.displacement - how far an object is from where it started
3. velocity - how quickly an object moves from one place to another
4. speed - the magnitude of an object's velocity
5. momentum - the velocity + mass of an object; mass in motion
6. acceleration - the rate at which velocity changes
7. inertia - the resistance an object has to a change in its state of motion (7:28)

Now let's test some of these ideas by doing Marble Lab II
