Let's start off by discussing the idea of movement.What is movement?How can someone move?Do we care about direction?Do we care how fast someone is going?If we really want to start off with the basics, then lets answer this question today:How much does an object move?We have 2 different ways to answer this question and that is where distance vs displacement comes into play.

Distance vs Displacement

Physics should be simple. It is all around us, relevant in math, biology, sports and space.

Let's break it down and listen to ~10 minute episodes on topics ranging from speed to parallel universes. 

Friendly Physics is produced by a high school physics teacher and steps listeners through kinematics, simple machines, electromagnetism and more.
