Hi! Its another SIM-fun adventure in the world of Science. Today, we will be talking about speed and velocity. So fasten you seatbelts as we drive our way to learning.
This Strategic Intervention Material was created to give you better understanding about SPEED and VELOCITY. Upon finishing this SIM, you are expected to : Define speed and velocity Differentiate speed and velocity Compute for speed of a moving object Identify velocity of a moving object

Now that you know what we are up to for today, lets take a review about the topic

As you walk to meet your friend, you change your position with every step you take. Distance is how far you travel along a path while you change your position.
While you were walking to meet your friend, you were in motion. Changing position creates motion.
What is Speed?
Let us dig a little deeper..
You might describe the motion of an airplane as fast or the motion of a snail as slow. By using these words, you are describing the objects speed.
The speed of an object is the distance the object moves per unit of time. To calculate the speed of an object, divide the distance the object travels by the amount of time it takes to travel that distance.
Distance Speed = --------------Time

Velocity
When you know the speed and direction of an objects motion, you know the velocity of the object.
The wind is out of the southwest at 10 km/hr.
For example, the meteorologist (one who studies the weather) gives the velocity of the wind.
speed only.
Here is an example of speed and velocity

__________is speed in a given direction. Like speed, velocity is measured in_________ per second (m/s). It tells you the speed that something is travelling, but it also tells you the _________ in which it is travelling. For example, an athlete is running with a velocity of 17 m/s due south.

The speed of sound is around 767 miles per hour (1,230 kilometres per hour).
Light travels very, very fast. The speed of light in a vacuum (an area empty of matter) is around 186,000 miles per second (300,000 kilometres per second)
*** Thunder and lightning strikes at the same time, but since light travels faster than sound, you will see the lightning strikes first before you hear the thunder roams LOGO
