Motion

Hey guys I'm back, and today I'll be talking about motion. I know it has been a while, but I'm back. Motion is the movement of an object from one place to another. There are many different things that are related to motion, one of them being speed. An example of motion is the ball in the sport soccer or fĂștbol for you English people.

Another example is a bicycle kick like the one shown below

 
Now I'll talk about relative motion. Relative motion is when an object changes it position from one place to another. One example is when one person starts out on one side of a tree and then moves to the other side of the tree. Another example of relative motion is if you are at the start line, then you pass the finish line that is also relative motion. Now lets talk about speed and the different types of speed.
 
Speed is how fast an object is moving. Speed is measured in Mph and Kmh. The speed of an object is measured by a speedometer. The speed of the ball changes (shown below).
 
There are two types of speed. They are average speed and instantaneous speed. Average speed is found by dividing the total distance traveled by the total time taken. Instantaneous speed is the speed of an object at one instant of time is the object's instantaneous speed.
Think about walking to school, if it takes you 0.5 hours to walk 3 kilometers to school your average speed would be 4 km/h. Except you most likey didn't sustain the same speed throughout the walk.
