Kinematics

Kinematics is distance, scalars, vectors, displacement, average speed, velocity, and acceleration. I choose this picture of me walking my dog because it shows a lot of kinematics. Distance is the total path length. My distance of travel was around ten miles from my house. I drove to a dog park and then let my puppy play with other dogs there. My displacement was 0 since i left my house went to the dog park and everything, then came back to my house. This made displacement to 0. My average speed, velocity, and acceleration can be shown through graphs and math if i took down data from that day. Sadly i did not so I cannot show the awesome math equations i learned in science class. This is how kinematics is shown in everyday life.
