Everyone should do their own steps and turns
5 minute activity

Be quick and efficient

Focus on what you are doing, not on others
Think-Pair-Share

Mrs. Larkin’s Example
Think-Pair-Share

Talk to your group:


2 similarities for distance & displacement
1 difference for distance & displacement
Distance vs. Displacement

UNIT 2 (MOTION & FORCES), DAY 1
• Distance vs. Displacement
• Scalars vs.Vectors
Scalar vs. Vector
 Scalar: measurement
 To
, no direction
represent a scalar, use a letter
 Distance: d
 Time: t
 Speed: v
Scalar vs. Vector
 Vector: measurement WITH

direction
To represent a vector, use a letter & arrow

Displacement: x or y

Velocity: v

Acceleration: a
Scalar vs. Vector

Why x or y for displacement?

• Distance vs. Displacement
• Scalars vs.Vectors
• Speed vs.Velocity
Speed vs. Velocity
Speed (SCALAR) is the total distance
traveled in a certain amount of time.
Speed vs. Velocity
Velocity (VECTOR) is the displacement (change in
position) that occurs in a certain amount of time.
