The change in position of an object from a point of reference

The total path length travelled by an object

The amount of matter in an object

The force of attraction of the earth on an object

The total distance traveled per time

position

A scalar only has magnitude and a vector has both magnitude and direction

It's a speed because there is no direction stated

It is a velocity because it has both magnitude and direction

method used to recombine component sums or vectors that are perpendicular to one another.

When adding vectors, they should be added arrow head of one to the tail of the next. Scale and direction should be maintained.

The vector that is created when vectors are added or subtracted...the resulting vector

Used in vector resolution to find the adjacent component of a vector

Used in vector resolution to find the opposite component of a vector

Used in combining component vectors to find the angle (direction) of the resultant vector

the process of breaking down a single vector into component vectors that are at right angle to each other.

The process of combining similar axial components using simple addition or subtraction. The components must be parallel.

Resultant of 2 vectors is smallest when the angle between them is_ _ _ degrees
