Theyalso include direction.DistanceA type of scalar measurement thatonly measures the length traveled.DisplacementA type of vector measurementthat measures the lengthtraveled and direction.Speed"AS THE CROW FLIES" is a term used (on amap) meaning the shortest distance back tothe start point. This means instead of goingaround obstacles, you can go over them.A type of scalar measurement therate at which someone or somethingis moving without direction.VelocitySpeed = Distance /TimeOTHER EXAMPLES: density,temperature, time, length,volumeA type of velocity measurement therate at which someone or somethingis moving including direction.Velocity = Distance /TimeOTHER EXAMPLES: weight,momentum, acceleration, forceInstantaneous Velocity orSpeedAverage Velocity or SpeedDouble click this nodeto edit the textClick and drag this buttonto create a new node
