Can you define speed, motion, constant speed and average speed?
And can you get me there formulas?
Ex-Distance over speed

Motion is moving, speed is the rate of movement per unit of time, and constant speed maintains the same rate of movement. Average speed is calculated by the distance covered in a particular time period, even though the speed was not constant through the time period.
I hope this helps. However, some of these terms could have been defined more quickly by loooking them up yourself in a hard copy or online dictionary. Thanks for asking.
Sure! Here are the definitions and formulas for each term:
1. Speed: Speed is defined as the rate at which an object changes its position. It is a scalar quantity that represents how fast an object is moving. The formula for speed is:
Speed = Distance / Time
where Distance is the total distance traveled by the object, and Time is the total time taken to cover that distance.
2. Motion: Motion refers to a change in an object's position with respect to time. It can be described by various parameters such as speed, velocity, acceleration, etc.
3. Constant Speed: Constant speed means that an object is moving at a steady rate without any change in its speed. This means that its speed remains the same throughout the entire motion.
4. Average Speed: Average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken. It gives you an overall measure of the speed regardless of whether the speed was constant or varied during the motion. The formula for average speed is:
Average Speed = Total Distance / Total Time
It is important to note that average speed does not indicate the actual speed at any particular moment, but rather the average rate of motion over a given time period.
I hope this clears up any confusion. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions!
