Motion
Motion is the act of changing place or position. Objects are in motion if they are changing position relative to a reference point. Motion can be described in terms of distance, time, speed, and direction.
Types of Motion
There are different types of motion, including:
- Linear Motion: Motion along a straight line.
- Circular Motion: Motion in a circular path.
- Periodic Motion: Motion that repeats at regular intervals.
Study Guide
Here are some key points to understand about motion:
- Distance: The total length of the path traveled by an object. It is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude.
- Displacement: The change in position of an object in a particular direction. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.
- Speed: The rate at which an object covers distance. It is calculated as the distance traveled divided by the time taken.
- Velocity: The rate at which an object changes its position. It is a vector quantity and is calculated as the displacement divided by the time taken.
- Acceleration: The rate at which the velocity of an object changes over time. It is calculated as the change in velocity divided by the time taken.
- Graphs of Motion: Motion can be represented on graphs, such as distance-time graphs and velocity-time graphs.
Understanding these concepts will help you grasp the principles of motion and its different aspects.

LIFE SCIENCE
From Molecules to Organisms: Structures and Processes
Create representations to explain the unique and diverse life cycles of organisms other than humans (e.g., flowering plants, frogs, butterflies), including commonalities such as birth, growth, reproduction, and death.
Unity and Diversity
Construct an argument from evidence to explain the likelihood of an organism’s ability to survive when compared to the resources in a certain habitat (e.g., freshwater organisms survive well, less well, or not at all in saltwater; desert organisms survive well, less well, or not at all in woodlands).
Create models that illustrate how organisms and their habitats make up a system in which the parts depend on each other.
