Motion: The Change in

Position
Motion is the change in position of an object with respect to time
and a reference point. It's a fundamental concept in physics that
describes how objects move. This presentation will explore the
basics of motion, including Newton's Laws of Motion.

Momentum: The
Measure of Motion
Momentum is the measure of the motion of an object and is
defined as the product of an object's mass and its velocity. It tells
us how hard it would be to stop a moving object.

and Acceleration
Force
1 The push or pull that causes a change in motion.

Mass
2
The amount of matter in an object.

Acceleration
3
The rate of change of velocity.
Newton's Second Law
Equation: F = ma
The equation F = ma expresses Newton's Second Law of Motion. It
states that the force applied is directly proportional to the mass of
the object and the acceleration produced.
