Instantaneous Speed (OCR GCSE Physics A, Combined (Gateway Science Suite)): Flashcards

Speed of an object at a particular instant/exact moment

Instantaneous speed at that exact moment

Instantaneous speed at each moment

Measures how fast wheels are turning at that moment

Speed of vehicles at a particular instant

Real-time instantaneous speed data

Use distance travelled in very short period of time

$6$ m/s

Instantaneous speed has same value throughout journey

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$
