Given descriptions, illustrations, graphs, charts, or equations, students will differentiate between speed, velocity, and acceleration.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students solve problems involving displacement, distance, velocity, speed, and acceleration, and then explore problems and graphs involving one-dimensional motion.

This resource provides flexible alternate or additional learning activities for students learning about the concepts of distance, speed, and acceleration.

This lesson focuses on Newton's First Law: an object remains in the same state of motion unless a resultant force acts on it. If the resultant force on an object is zero, this means: a stationary object stays stationary; a moving object...

This lesson provides the learner with example problems on calculating the average velocity of an object undergoing constant acceleration. It is 1 of 2 in the series titled "Practice w/ Average Velocity & Constant Acceleration."

In this lesson, you will learn about position vs. time graphs and velocity vs. time graphs and how to use them to solve problems.

A GIF animation comparing the motion of three cars. A graphical depiction is given. Includes three thoughtful questions with answers in a pop-up menu.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] An online chapter focused on motion and the shapes it takes. Topics range from speed and velocity to acceleration and free fall. Find detailed visuals, learning...

The mathematics associated with the motion of satellites is described. Equations (for period, velocity, acceleration and force) are stated, symbols described, and sample problems solved. Includes five practice problems with solutions and...

This lesson focuses on motion including definitions, how to calculate the change in velocity and the average acceleration, and a link to an assessment.

This lesson focuses on Distance-time graphs; the gradient of a distance-time graph represents the speed of an object.

What do you think of when you hear the word motion? Are you moving right now? You may not think so, but you are. Remember, the Earth is moving around the Sun, and the Sun is moving around the Milky Way Galaxy. Everything in the universe...

Students will distinguish between and/or interpret the types of motion.

Using only two of our fundamental units, time and displacement students will build a framework to predict the motion of objects, starting with one dimensional motion.

A learning module where students gain an understanding of the relationships between the different kinds of motion. Students will be able to explain free-fall motion and use kinematics equations to calculate problems involving falling...

Given diagrams or scenarios, students will measure and graph changes in motion.

This lesson from the Glenbrook South High School gives a nice review and detailed explanation of velocity, speed, distance, displacement, and acceleration. A good introduction to the "language of Kinematics."

This tutorial introduces the concept of electric currents. Take the interactive quiz to assess your understanding.
