# Kinematics Maze: Displacement, Velocity and Acceleration

Students in Physics 20 describe motion in terms of displacement, velocity, acceleration and time ([Topic](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/41870)). This maze game reinforces understanding of key kinematic quantities and their relationships. As students navigate the puzzle, they apply their knowledge of scalar and vector quantities ([Outcome](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/41872)), uniform and uniformly accelerated motion ([Outcome](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/41873)), and the operational definitions that distinguish these concepts ([Outcome](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/41871)). The game suits independent or partner work during a unit review or as a formative checkpoint before problem-solving practice.

## How to play

- Start at the marked entrance and draw one path through the open corridors to the marked exit.
- Never cross a wall. If you reach a dead end, go back and try another way.
- The shortest path passes through 135 cells. The answer key shows it in colour.
