Walking Directions (Distance)
Follow the directions on the worksheet
Stay in the courtyard
Everyone should do their own steps and turns
5 minute activity
Be quick and efficient
Focus on what you are doing, not on others
Think-Pair-Share
Mrs. Larkin’s Example
Think-Pair-Share
Think:
Recall your journey
Map it out on the dots as Mrs. Larkin did
Pair:
Compare journeys with your group members
Share:
3 people called at random to draw their journeys

UNIT 2 (MOTION & FORCES), DAY 1
• Distance vs. Displacement
Distance vs. Displacement
Draw small Venn Diagram (about size of hand)
Talk to your group:
2 similarities for distance & displacement
1 difference for distance & displacement
Distance vs. Displacement
Distance: how much the object has moved
Displacement: how far object is from its starting point
Distance vs. Displacement

UNIT 2 (MOTION & FORCES), DAY 1
• Distance vs. Displacement
• Scalars vs.Vectors
Scalar vs. Vector
Scalar: measurement
To
, no direction
represent a scalar, use a letter
Distance: d
Time: t
Speed: v
Scalar vs. Vector
Vector: measurement WITH
direction
To represent a vector, use a letter & arrow
Displacement: x or y
Velocity: v
Acceleration: a
Scalar vs. Vector
Why x or y for displacement?
+y(vertical)
-x
Memory Trick:
• H is before V, just
like X is before Y

Practice
Mrs. Larkin runs forward 10 feet. She then turns around
and runs back 7 feet. What distance did she run?
Practice
Mrs. Larkin runs forward 13 feet. She then turns around
and runs back 6 feet. What displacement did she run?
Practice
Shadow runs 3 meters east, then 2 meters north, then 3
meters west. What distance did she run?
Practice
Shadow runs 4 inches north, then 5 inches east, then 4
inches south. What displacement did she run?
Practice
Ms. Parsons drives to and from Da Vinci Design, which is
located 5 miles from her house.
A. What is the total distance she drives every day?
B. What is her displacement every day?
Practice
La Luz runs a complete circle around the classroom.
What displacement did she run? (Use feet)
Practice
La Luz and Shadow are racing each other around a
circular track. The track is 500 meters around and 159
meters across. La Luz gets tired and stops halfway
around. Shadow finishes the race.
A. Who has the greater displacement?
B. By how many meters?
500 meters around
159
meters
across

Figuring Out an Equation
Here are some units for speed:
Miles per hour (mi/h)
Kilometers per hour (km/h)
Meters per second (m/s)
Feet per second (ft/s)
What do all the numerators
have in common?
mi
h
km
h
m
s
What do all the denominators
have in common?
ft

UNIT 2 (MOTION & FORCES), DAY 1
• Distance vs. Displacement
• Scalars vs.Vectors
• Speed vs.Velocity
Speed vs. Velocity
Speed (SCALAR) is the total distance
traveled in a certain amount of time.
Speed vs. Velocity
Velocity (VECTOR) is the displacement (change in
position) that occurs in a certain amount of time.
