\t<li>Kinematics is the description of motion without considering its causes. In this chapter, it is limited to motion along a straight line, called one-dimensional motion.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Displacement is the change in position of an object. The SI unit for displacement is the meter. Displacement has direction as well as magnitude.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Distance traveled is the total length of the path traveled between two positions.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Time is measured in terms of change.
