every number.
____________________ 1. It is described as the study of motion without considering its causes.
____________________ 2. A phenomenon in which an object changes its position over time.
____________________ 3. The motion of a body is observed by attaching a __________________ to an observer.
____________________ 4. The only difference between scalar and vector quantities is the presence of _____________.
____________________ 5. The head of the arrow symbolizes the ______________ of the motion.
____________________ 6. Represents the total of the combination of two or more vector quantities.
____________________ 7. The operation used to calculate the resultant when vectors are moving in the same direction.
____________________ 8. The operation used to calculate the resultant when vectors are moving in the opposite
direction.
____________________ 9. This is used to calculate the resultant of the vectors forming right angle as they were
connected.
____________________ 10. This refers to how far an object travels without considering its direction.
____________________ 11. This refers to the shortest distance between the starting point and the final point of motion
____________________ 12. For numbers 12-15, enumerate the four secondary directions.
____________________ 13.
