Rate of change in displacement is known as:
Correct answer: B. Velocity
- A. Speed
- B. Velocity
- C. Acceleration
- D. Momentum
Explanation
The rate of change of displacement with time is called velocity. The SI Unit of velocity is m/s.

About Force and Motion
Displacement, velocity and acceleration describe motion, including the horizontal and vertical components of projectile motion. The chapter connects these quantities with Newton's laws, momentum and impulse, then applies conservation of momentum to collisions, distinguishing elastic collisions from inelastic ones.
