Kinematic Vocabulary

Velocity differs from speed in that velocity indicates a particle's __________ of motion.

Unlike speed, velocity is a __________ quantity.

A vector has, by definition, both __________ and direction.

Once you have selected a coordinate system, you can express a two-dimensional vector using a pair of quantities known collectively as __________.

Speed differs from velocity in the same way that __________ differs from displacement.

Consider a physical situation in which a particle moves from point A to point B. This process is described from two coordinate systems that are identical except that they have different origins. The __________ of the particle at point A differ(s) as expressed in one coordinate system compared to the other, but the __________ from A to B is/are the same as expressed in both coordinate systems.
