What do you call it when an objects velocity changes?

A change in an objects velocity is called acceleration. Velocity is defined as an objects speed of travel AND its direction of travel. Acceleration can change only an objects speed, only its direction or both. If there is no acceleration acting on the object, then the velocity remains constant.


What is the objects change in speed called?

That's simply called a change in velocity. On the other hand, the rate of change in velocity - how quickly velocity changes - is called acceleration.


Is the change of an objects velocity divided by the amount of time required for change to occur?

That is called acceleration.


Is velocity a change in an objects motion?

Velocity is a change in an object's motion OR direction of motion.


The change in an object velocity?

The change in an object's velocity is determined by its acceleration. If the object's acceleration is positive, its velocity increases; if it is negative, the velocity decreases. The larger the acceleration, the quicker the change in velocity will be.


The rate at which an object changes position is called what?

A change in position in a certain amount of time is called motion.


What would you apply in order to change an objects velocity?

force


The state when objects are not yet in motion?

The state when objects are not yet in motion is called rest. This is when an object remains stationary with no change in position over time. Objects at rest have a velocity of zero.


What is a measure of how far an objects has moved from a starting point?

A change in the position of an object is called a displacement. Velocity is the measure of the rate of change of displacement with respect to time.


What term can best describe both speed and direction of an objects motion?

That is called "velocity".


Forces that cause an objects velocity to change?

In all cases acceleration.


What is the term for motion in which the velocity of the moving objects does not change?

uniform motion
