Motion and Force

1.3 Distinguish between, and solve problems involving, velocity, speed, and constant acceleration.

1.4 Create and interpret graphs of motion (position vs. time, speed vs. time, velocity vs. time, constant acceleration vs. time).

1.7 Interpret and apply Newton's second law of motion to show how an object's motion will change only when a net force is applied.*

Newton's Second Law of Motion:

Force( Newtons)= Mass (kilograms) x Acceleration (m/s/s/)
