This lesson provides the learner with example problems on calculating the speed and velocity of an object. It is 1 of 2 in the series titled "Practice Calculating Speed & Velocity."

A printable, high-school level worksheet with physics problems which allows students to practice describing motion using speed and velocity.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this short tutorial, students investigate the meaning of average speed and velocity.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Understand how to apply proper calculations to determine speed and velocity and clarify the meaning of instantaneous velocity.

By the end of this section, you will be able to do the following: Explain the relationships between instantaneous velocity, average velocity, instantaneous speed, average speed, displacement, and time; Calculate velocity and speed given...

This has been used for the physics portion of a ninth grade physical science course. This lab experience is designed to give students a conceptual sense of the relationship between one-dimensional distance, velocity and acceleration.

This site includes practice using the acceleration equation to solve for acceleration, time, and initial or final velocity.

In this introduction to motion activity, young scholars will get a personal understanding of speed and acceleration by experiencing it firsthand. Wheeled office chairs or other cart like devices are used to give one student a ride as a...

Take control of a virtual car and learn how vectors are used to represent velocity and acceleration in this interactive activity developed for Teachers' Domain.

Learn how to calculate the kinetic energy of a gas molecule, describe the relationship between the temperature of a gas and the kinetic energy of atoms and molecule, and describe the distribution of speeds of molecules in a gas. The...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of speed and its SI unit, instantaneous speed and how to calculate average speed and distance or time from speed.

In the following interactive module, students will begin to explain the relationships between instantaneous velocity, average velocity, instantaneous speed, average speed, displacement, and time. They will calculate velocity and speed...

An interactive module where students record their ideas in response to questions, and read and manipulate graphs and charts while they learn about velocity-time graphs and position-time graphs.

By the end of this section, you will be able to define arc length, rotation angle, radius of curvature, and angular velocity; and to calculate the angular velocity of a car wheel spin.

Created to teach students of the 21st century, SOPHIA is bringing relative velocity straight to your fingertips. Become the commander of your own learning experiences as you take part in this interactive lesson.

Explore forces and motion as you push household objects up and down a ramp. Lower and raise the ramp to see how the angle of inclination affects the parallel forces.

Simple definitions explain how speed and velocity are related. A brief list of examples will show you different speeds that you observe in real life situations.

This lesson provides the learner with example problems on calculating the instantaneous speed and velocity of an object. It is 1 of 2 in the series titled "Practice Calculating Instantaneous Velocity."

Observe the animation of the three cars. Use the animation to answer three questions about their acceleration and velocity.

This illustrated tutorial focuses on several examples of vector and scalar quantities including distance, displacement, speed, velocity, 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...

A discussion and statement of an equation for orbital speed. An interactive JavaScript form allows the user to investigate the relationship between orbital height and orbital speed. A very good opportunity to practice and receive...

This game is designed to help students mentally figure out distances, speeds or time for objects moving at constant speed. A video will help with use of the program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nWhvhO6pXo&feature=youtu.be
