Yes.

Acceleration is a change in velocity; velocity is a change in speed and or direction.

I am not sure what motion means in a technical sense (velocity?).

It is more accurate to describe velocity as a change in position with respect to time.

Is velocity a change in an objects motion?

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


What is the difference between velocity and linear motion?

Linear motion is a motion in a straight line but velocity can travel in any direction the equation for linear motion is and velocity is the rate of change of positions


What is acceleration in science?

Acceleration is any change in velocity. Velocity is the speed and direction of motion.


What changes in motion can result in a change in a change in velocity?

A change in velocity basically IS a change in motion.


What changes in motion can result in a change in velocity?

Any change in motion (direction or speed) is a change in velocity.Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it has a magnitude and a direction.


Rate of change of the velocity of an object?

The change in velocity is just the change in velocity. The RATE of change of velocity - how quickly velocity changes - is usually called "acceleration".


If something has a change in motion it has what?

For any object to change its motion, it must be accelerated and experiences acceleration. Note that a change in motion is a change in velocity. The object either speeds up, slows down or changes direction, and one of those or some combination is a velocity change. Only acceleration will change velocity. We need to offer the reminder that velocity is speed with a direction vector attached to it. An object can travel at a constant speed and be changing direction. This is a change in velocity because of the change of direction. And a change in velocity is, as stated, initiated by acceleration.


What is a sentence for the word inertia?

In physics, inertia is an object's resistance to any change in motion, such as a change in velocity.


What is a force that causes an object to change its motion?

I think this question is not phrased very well. Any force can change objects velocity (speed+direction). If fact that is the definition of the force - F=ma any force, by definition itself, can change objects velocity. Maybe you meant what force can change objects direction of motion? In that case - any force that has a different direction (not the same as direction of motion) Any force can change an object's motion.


What changes in motion can result in a changes in velocity?

Any change in motion (direction or speed) is a change in velocity.Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it has a magnitude and a direction.


How the equqtion of motion for an object moving with a uniform velocity change?

Any change in motion (direction or speed) is a change in velocity.Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it has a magnitude and a direction.


How does velocity describe motion?

Velocity is a measure of the change in location (or motion) per unit f time.
