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...

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.

Is it scientifically possible to have super speed? Find out in this TED Ed series about the science of superpowers. [4:51]

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."

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.
