Δt = t₂ - t₁
Where:
* Δt represents the change in time (often called "delta t")
* t₂ is the final time
* t₁ is the initial time
Example:
If a car starts moving at 10:00 AM (t₁ = 10:00 AM) and stops at 11:30 AM (t₂ = 11:30 AM), the change in time is:
Δt = 11:30 AM - 10:00 AM = 1.5 hours
Important Note:
* Time is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude (amount) and not direction.
* The change in time is always positive, as it represents the duration between two time points.
