2. Distance- It is the length of the actual path covered by an object, irrespective of its direction of motion.
3. Speed- the speed of an object is the magnitude of the rate of change of its position with time or the magnitude of the change of its position per unit of time; it is thus a scalar quantity.
4. Velocity-The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time.
5. Acceleration- Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time. Accelerations are vector quantities.
