Motion, in its simplest form, is the change in position of an object over time. It's all around us, from the obvious movement of cars and people to the subtle vibrations of atoms and the Earth's rotation around the sun.
Concepts:
Displacement: The straight-line distance between an object's initial and final positions.
Distance: The total length of the path an object travels, not necessarily straight.
Speed: How fast an object is moving, measured in distance per unit time (e.g., meters per second, kilometers per hour).
Velocity: Speed combined with direction. It tells you both how fast and in which direction something is moving.
Acceleration: The rate of change of velocity, measured in change of speed per unit time (e.g., meters per second squared).
Types of motion:
Understanding motion is crucial in various fields:
