Motion is the process of something moving or changing place, or even just changing position.

There are a lot of factors involved every time something moves. There are fewer factors involved if an
object moves at the same speed in a straight line. However, most movement involves changing the
speed of the movement and changing directions. Here is a list of terms that go hand in hand with
learning about motion:
Speed is how long it takes for an object to travel a certain distance. Its formula is distance divided by
time, or d/t. A car's speed is often measured in how many miles it can travel in an hour. So the distance
is miles and the time is hours (distance/time = Miles/Hour, or Miles per Hour, or mph).
Velocity and speed are very close and often mixed up. They both measure d/t. Velocity adds an extra
step; it measures distance over time or speed in a given direction. So a car's speed could be 55 mph,
but its velocity would be 55 mph in a northward direction.
Acceleration is when any part of an object's velocity changes. If the object speeds up or travels over a
given distance in a shorter amount of time, then there is acceleration. There can also be acceleration if
an object changes direction. So even if the car continues to travel at the speed of 55 mph but turns and
heads in an eastward direction, it is still accelerating.
Force is any type of a push or pull. In order for an object to accelerate, it needs to have a force acted
upon it. In other words, in order for an object to change speed or direction, it needs to be pushed or
pulled.
Mass is the amount of matter that something is. It is usually measured in grams.

EXAMPLES:
Constant Speed-When the speed of an object remains the same - it does not increase or
decrease,we say it is moving at a constant speed.
The best example of a body moving with constant speed is an object moving in space such as
satellite. These objects have constant speed but variable velocity, because their direction might
be changing but the magnitude is constant.
Increasing Speed
A car speeds up at green light.
Decreasing Speed
A car stops at the stop light.
Acceleration
A car accelerationg to move
fast.
