Research Log entry #2

This past week in my Physics class, we were discussing ramps, and so I tried to answer the question on what the exact definitions of two words are and how they differentiate. I used Google to find the answers as I feel that Google does the best job of finding answers to such questions. I used a couple of terms to find my answers. I put in the words 'acceleration and velocity' as well as 'the definitions of.' In the end I found both definitions which were that acceleration is a change of speed, and velocity is speed. I tried re-arranging words, and omitting certain words as well to modify my search. The thought of looking up the definition to the word 'speed' came up, as the definition of the word velocity came up as speed. So I wanted to see what the dictionary had to say about the speed in a scientific sense.
