  1. SPEED AND MOTION MOTION: THE PROCESS OF CHANGING POSITION WE USE A REFERENCE POINT TO DETERMINE WHETHER SOMETHING IS IN MOTION. **A REFERENCE POINT IS THE STARTING POINT YOU USE TO DESCRIBE THE MOTION OR THE POSITION OF THE OBJECT**

  2. SPEED SPEED IS THE DISTANCE SOMETHING MOVES DIVIDED BY THE TIME IT TOOK TO MOVE THAT DISTANCE SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME EX: A CAR MOVES 120 KM IN 60 MINUTES. WHAT IS ITS SPEED? SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME SPEED = 120 KM/60 MINUTES SPEED = 2 KM/MINUTE

  3. TEST YOUR SKILLS IF A DRIVER WAS ABLE TO TRAVEL 600 KM IN 3 HOURS, WHAT WAS HIS AVERAGE SPEED? SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME SPEED = 600 KM/3 HOURS SPEED = 200 KM/HOUR (200 KPH) THE FASTEST CAR ON EARTH, THE BRITISH-MADE THRUST SSC, CAN TRAVEL 380 MILES IN 0.5 HOURS. WHAT IS ITS SPEED? SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME (S=D/T) SPEED = 380 MILES/0.5 HOURS SPEED = 760 MILES/HOUR (760 MPH)
