Galileoa. Study of motioni. State of motion is not natural – if a force is applied in the opposite direction of the motion it will slow downii. Rest is no more natural than motion1. Previously thought that heavenly beings moved the solar systemiii. Thomas Aquinas – the “unmoved mover” proved that God existsII. Rectilinear – straight line motiona. Constant motionb. Accelerated motionIII. Distance equationsa. Distance = slope * timeb. D = (229 m/s) * time + 0c. Displacement = (speed * time)/velocity * timed. Scalar valuesi. Distanceii. Speede. Vector valuesi.
