Position — definition?
Location relative to a reference point.
Displacement — difference?
Change in position, includes direction.
Velocity — formula?
Displacement over time, Δx/Δt.
Displacement — definition?
Change in position; vector quantity.
Distance vs displacement — difference?
Distance: total path; Displacement: net change.
Average velocity — formula?
Δx divided by Δt; vector.
Instantaneous velocity — definition?
Derivative of position: dx/dt.
Equations of motion — for constant acceleration?
v = v_i + at; x = x_i + v_i t + ½ at²; v² = v_i² + 2a(x - x_i).
Gravity — acceleration during free fall?
a = -9.80 m/s² downward.
Projectile motion — independence of components?
Horizontal constant, vertical affected by gravity.
