What are two components used to define motion?
Velocity and acceleration are two components used to define motion. Velocity describes the speed and direction of an object's motion, while acceleration describes how quickly an object's velocity is changing.
What is the name of the speed with direction?
Velocity is the measurement of the rate and direction of change in the position of an object. It is a vector quantity; both magnitude and direction are required to define it. The scalar value of velocity is speed. For example, a speed of "5 meters per second" is a scalar and not a vector measurement, whereas a velocity of "5 meters per second east" is a vector measurement stating both speed and direction.
Define speed as a rate and define velocity as speed in a given direction?
Velocity of a body is the distance travelled by it per unit time in a given direction. Velocity is a vector quantity as it has both magnitude as well as direction. Speed of a body gives us idea of how slow or fast a body is moving. Speed of a body is the distance travelled by it per unit time. formula for speed is given by : Distance travelled/Time taken
The speed and direction of a moving object determines the what of an object?
You might be referring to velocity. It is a vector physical quantity and both speed AND direction are required to define it. One can also consider velocity as the rate at which an object changes position.
How is speed of a body related its velocity?
Part of every velocity is a speed. Speed is the size of the velocity.But the velocity also has a direction, which the speed doesn't.'30 mph North' and '30 mph West' are the same speed but different velocity.
Velocity differs from speed in that velocity indicates?
Velocity is a vector quantity, which means that a body's speed and direction are both required to define it. They are different because: Speed is the rate of change of distance with time but velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time.
Can the speed of body be negative?
The problem here is the conflating of the term "speed" with "velocity". Velocity is a vector - it has both intensity and direction. Velocity can be negative. Speed really only has magnitude, so it is normally only positive; since there is no direction associated you can't define a meaning for negative speed (unless you decide to define it as synonymous with velocity) When a body is thrown in upward direction and upward motion is defined as positive velocity, its velocity decreases with time and at highest point speed and velocity become zero. When the body falls downward its speed i increases until hit the ground but since it is moving in the opposite of the direction that was defined as "positive", its velocity is negative.
What is an angular speed of a rotating body?
Angular velocity is given as radians per second; angular speed is also the same thing. Velocity is a vector with magnitude and direction and speed a scalar with magnitude only. The magnitude is identical; velocity will define the direction of rotation ( clockwise or counterclockwise).
What are two components used to define motion?
Velocity and acceleration are two components used to define motion. Velocity describes the speed and direction of an object's motion, while acceleration describes how quickly an object's velocity is changing.

What is speed in a given direction is called?
Speed in a given direction is velocity.
Are speed and velocity different?
SPEED has the speed only; while VELOCITY has the direction and the speed.

Part of every velocity is a speed. Speed is the size of the velocity.But the velocity also has a direction, which the speed doesn't.'30 mph North' and '30 mph West' are the same speed but different velocity.
What is speed in a given direction?
Speed in a given direction is called velocity.
Is distance time and force velocity quantities?
Distance and time are quantities that are independent of each other and are fundamental in physics. Force and velocity, on the other hand, are related quantities where force is the product of mass and acceleration, and velocity is the rate of change of displacement.
