A speed is two measurements made into one number. This unit builds that number, draws it, and then asks the question nobody had needed to ask yet: measured against what?
- 01SpeedQuantitativeA fly crosses your view in half a second. A plane takes a full minute to cross the same patch of sky. Which one is actually faster — and what would you have to know to say?Open this lesson
- 02Distance–time graphsInvestigationSomeone walks 6 m down a level corridor, waits at a door, then runs the last 12 m. Drawn as a graph, that journey rises, goes flat, then rises much more steeply — and the floor never changed height. So what is the height of the line telling you?Open this lesson
- 03Relative motionModelYour train is doing 100 km/h. A second train pulls alongside, also doing 100 km/h, and through the window it hangs there motionless. How fast is it going?Open this lesson
