What does delta mean?

A: A It's a random symbol

B: B a change in something

Correct answer: B. Delta or ∆ is the Greek symbol that means “a change in.” For example, delta velocity means a change in velocity. This is super important in physics, and it’s not just a random symbol you should ignore (which is why A and C are incorrect). Finally, D is incorrect because ∆ is the final position minus the initial position. Not the other way around!

C: C We use delta in physics, but it's not that important

D: D It's just the initial point minus the starting point
