physics - correct answer ✔branch of science concerned with matter and
energy and the interaction between them


motion - correct answer ✔change in an object's position with respect to time


particle model - correct answer ✔treats object as particle represented by a
mass at a single point in space with no size or shape


scalar - correct answer ✔quantity fully defined or described by single number


vector - correct answer ✔quantity described by magnitude and direction


displacement - correct answer ✔change in position


velocity - correct answer ✔rate of change of position vector


acceleration - correct answer ✔change of velocity with respect to time; rate
of change of velocity vector
