Distance Motion parameters
• length of the path travelled by a point
• Units => cm, m, miles, ..., lightyears
Displacement
• Difference between final and initial position of a point. Need point & direction of reference.
• Units => cm, m, miles, ..., lightyears
Velocity
• Rate of change of displacement.
• Units => cm/s, m/s, miles/s, ..., knots
Speed
• Magnitude of rate of change of displacement.
• Units => cm/s, m/s, miles/s, ..., knots
Acceleration
• Rate of change of velocity.
• Units => cm/s/s, m/s/s, miles/s/s
