What Is Instantaneous Speed?
The Speed at a moment.
What is Average Speed?
The total distance travelled in the total time taken for a complete journey.
What is Relative Motion?
How fast something Is travelling compared to another.
What is a Distance-Time Graph?
A graph that shows the distance travelled in a certain time.
What 2 factors effect pressure?
Volume and Temperature.
Describe how atmospheric pressure changes with height.
Less pressure will be affected by less gravity pulling you to the Earth.
What is Atmospheric Pressure?
Pressure in the air.
What is Gas Pressure?
Force exerted by air particles.
What does Compressed mean?
Squashed into a space.
Why do you feel more pressure the lower you are underwater?
It is because there will be more particles on top of you, creating more pressure.
What is Pressure?
Force exerted on a certain area.
If you are working out the area of something, what will be the formula?
Force Divided by Pressure.
