5 PHYSICS OF SPEED kinetics The study of forces acting on or produced by an object kinematics The properties of motion in an object without reference to the forces causing motion 5

6 scalar A quantity that has a magnitude, but no direction (ex. speed and distance) vector A quantity that has a magnitude and a direction (ex. acceleration and velocity) Newton s 1 st Law (Inertia): An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force 6
