Short answer: yes. An object in "motion" has a "speed" simply by virtue of its being in motion. An object possessing a speed is inherently in motion. In this sense they have similar meanings. Speed is a rate of change in position. Motion is a change in position (in progress). In this sense, speed is more specific than motion in that speed has a quantitative value. Conversely, there can be no "speed" without "motion". To be complete, "velocity" is even more specific than speed in that it contains a rate of change in position together with a direction. That is, speed is a "scalar" quantity, and "velocity" is a vector quantity.

How does mass affect the motion of an object?
mass affects the object that is in motion because it is moving so there for it is moving the same speed
What is the rate of motion of an object in a linear motion?
That is the object's 'speed'.
How does the direction of acceleration affect the directions of motion?
The acceleration will either speed up or slow down an object's motion in the direction it is applied. Any change in speed or direction is considered acceleration.
How does mass affect the speed of an object?
It has no direct affect on the speed of an object. It does affect the energy content of the speeding object.
What is a change in an object's motion called?
A change in speed or direction of motion is called "acceleration". If an object's speed or direction of motion changes, then the object is "accelerated".
Which of these would change the direction of an object but not affect the object's speed?
Circular motion would change the direction of an object but would not affect the object's speed.
How does mass affect the motion of an object?
mass affects the object that is in motion because it is moving so there for it is moving the same speed
How does a negative or positive acceleration affect motion?
It can change the direction of motion or it can speed up or slow down an object.
What is the rate of motion of an object in linear motion?
That is the object's 'speed'.
What is the rate of motion of an object in a linear motion?
That is the object's 'speed'.
How does affect the motion ofan object?
the object of motion is akantutan
How does force affect a falling object?
force hits the object and it changes it velocity or speed and its state of motion or rest , push or pull.
What is a rate of motion of an object in a linear motion?
That's the object's 'speed'.
How does apparent force affect the motion of an object?
Accelerates the motion of an object.
How does impact force affect a falling object?
force hits the object and it changes it velocity or speed and its state of motion or rest , push or pull.
What happen to the speed of moving object when it is pushed in the direction of motion?
When a moving object is pushed in the direction of its motion the speed of the object increases
What happened to the speed of moving object when it is pushed in the direction of motion?
When a moving object is pushed in the direction of its motion the speed of the object increases
