What are the factors affecting the speed of a moving object?

Factors that affects the speed of a moving object:*Force*Friction*Gravity*Weight


What affects the amount of kinetic energy an object has?

The mass, and the 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 gravity affects the acceleration of a falling object?

The bigger the object the faster it causes it to fall until it reaches terminal velocity, then it falls at a constant speed.


Why does gravity affect speed?

Because the effect of gravity is to cause forces between every two objects that have mass, and force on an object generally affects its speed.


Explain how friction affects the motion of an object?

Friction is speed's worst enemy. If no forces act on an object, it is stationary. If a force acts on an object, it keeps going forever until another force acts on it (such as friction!!!).


How does temperature affects particles?

Temperature IS the average speed of movement of the particles molecules that make up an object. The more heat you add to an object, the faster the molecules move vibrate. There are devices thermometers that indirectly measure this speed, and thus report the temperature.


Will the speed of the object affect the amount of friction between object and the surface?

No. The speed of the object does not affect the amount of friction between an object and the surface. Friction is affected by the types of surfaces in contact, smoother surfaces produce less friction, and the weight of the object moving horizontally affects the resistance relative to the two surfaces in contact. Greater weight causes greater resistance.


What is the difference between an object's speed and a object's velocity?

The difference between an object's speed and an object's velocity is that the object's speed is how fast it is going, and the object's velocity is how many units of speed the object has traveled.


How does friction affect interia?

Friction does not affect inertia, but it affects momentum. Momentum is the product of the mass of an object and its speed. Friction forces, if present, will always act to decrease the momentum of a moving object.


How temperature affects particle movement?

Temperature IS the average speed of movement of the particles molecules that make up an object. The more heat you add to an object, the faster the molecules move vibrate. There are devices thermometers that indirectly measure this speed, and thus report the temperature.


What is the speed of an object if nothing affects it?

If nothing affects it, then there is no force acting on it. if there is no force, there is balanced force (trivial meaning of 'nothing'). If there is balanced force, there is constant speed.This constant speed can also be maintained with a force, but the question at hand states nothing is affecting it, so that discussion is elsewhere.
