To determine the speed of an object, you need to know the distance the object has traveled and the time it took to travel that distance. Speed is calculated by dividing the distance covered by the time it took to cover that distance.

If you know the distance of an object has traveled in a certain amount of time you can determine the?
speed
What two quantities must be known in order to determine the distance to an object?
To determine the distance to an object, you need to know the object's speed and the time it takes for the object to travel to a specific location. By multiplying the speed by the time, you can calculate the distance the object has traveled.
What two things must you know to determine speed?
Speed is the rate at which an object moves. To determine the rate at which that object moves, we'll have to look at a given distance that it covered when it moved, and at the time it took to cover that distance. The distance per unit of time is the speed of the object.
In order to determine speed you must know two things?
To determine speed, you need to know the distance an object travels and the time it takes to cover that distance. Speed is calculated by dividing distance by time.
If you know the distance an object has travled in a certian amount of time you can determine?
the object's speed by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken. Speed is calculated as distance divided by time.
If you know the distance an object has travled in a certian amount of time you can determine?
the object's speed by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken. Speed is calculated as distance divided by time.
If you know the distance of an object has traveled in a certain amount of time you can determine the?
speed
Which factors must be know to calculate an object gravitational potential energy?
Mass speed
What two things must you know to determine speed?
Speed is the rate at which an object moves. To determine the rate at which that object moves, we'll have to look at a given distance that it covered when it moved, and at the time it took to cover that distance. The distance per unit of time is the speed of the object.
What two things must you know to determine average speed?
To determine average speed, you need to know what distance the object traveled in meters over how long it took the object to travel that distance in seconds.
What the speed and the direction an object are moving?
If you know the speed and direction of the object's motion, then you know its velocity.
When you know both the speed and the direction of an object's motion, you know the?
velocity of the object
When you know both the speed and direction of an object in motion you know the?
object's velocity
What is used to measure momentum?
A scale, a stopwatch and a ruler. Weigh the object of which you want to know the momentum, and determine its speed using the stopwatch and ruler. The momentum can then be calculated as the product of the weight and the speed.
Is it true that you can determine the kinetic energy of an object if you know mass and volume?
No, that's not true. Look at the formula for kinetic energy. You need mass and speed.
When you know both the speed and direction of an object's while it is in motion do you know the acceleration of the object?
Not necessarily. Knowing an object's speed and direction of motion does not automatically provide information about its acceleration, which is the rate of change of velocity. Acceleration depends on how much the velocity is changing over time, which might not be evident just from knowing the initial speed and direction.
How do you know a object's speed and velocity?
Velocity = Delta-x / Delta-t, where x is position, t is time, and "Delta" is the "Change in" operator.Velocity is a vector, so I probably should have written x as x, or x-arrow, or some other notation to indicate it was a vector quantity, but putting an arrow hat on something is a little difficult to do here, and just making it bold is kind of subtle and could be missed.Speed is the magnitude of the velocity vector.
