What are the two categories of Aristotle’s Motion?
Terrestrial and Celestial
A category of motion pertaining to any movement of any object on earth
Terrestrial
a movement of any object beyond earth
Celestial
What are the three classifications of Terrestrial motion?
Natural, Violent, Alteration
—– motion determined by the nature of the object’s composition (earth, fire, water, air)
Natural
—— motion happens when an object is acted upon by any external force.
Violent
—— refers to a type of motion that describes qualitative change. water turning into ice. Also known as chemical change
Alteration.
this type of motion refers to the daily rising and setting of the sun.
Diurnal motion
apparent shift in location of the stars
annual motion
It is the change in position of any mass with respect to time
Motion
Motion can be traced back by —– years ago by Aristotle
1000 years ago
Aristotle proposed that a moving object is influence by this force
Motive force
type of motion that involves an object being thrown or fired near Earth’s surface
Projectile Motion
Aristotle explained Projectile Motion through the concept of ——-
antiperistatis
It refers to the actual path travelled by an object
distance (d)
it indicated the length as a straight line from the initial to the final position of an object
displacement (d)
This measures the distance travelled by an object over time
Speed
it represents the ratio of displacement and time
velocity
it is a vector quantity that measures the rate of change of velocity
Acceleration
this is magnitude alone
Scalar quantity
magnitude and direction
Vector quantity
distance and speed are vector quantity. True or false?
False - it is a scalar quantity
displacement and velocity are vector quantities. True or False?
True
it shows how the speed of a moving object changes with time
