What do you need to know to determine the velocity of a moving object?
Neffyboy
Velocity means speed and direction. If one car was travelling 60mph northwards and one car was travelling 60mph southwards, they would both have the same speed but they would have different velocities. Acceleration means a change in velocity; this could be a change in speed or direction or both.

If you know the distance an object has traveles in a certain amount of time you can determine?
Velocity Velocity= distance/time V=d/t
What three things do you need to know to determine velocity?
you need to know two different positions for the moving object, and the time interval between them. Velocity is the time it took to go from point A to point BTechnically, tho- you only need two things... Distance traveled and time.
If you know the constant velocity of a moving object what can you predict?
You can predict its motion until some force acts on it.
What must you know about an object that is moving in a straight line to calculate its acceleration?
You must know its mass and the net force. If it is moving at constant velocity, the net force is zero and the acceleration is zero.
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.
When you know both the speed and direction of a moving object you know the?
velocity
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.
What will happened if both speed and direction of the moving object be identified?
Then we will know the object's velocity.
If you know the distance an object has travled in a certain amount of time you can determine?
Velocity.
What can you determine if you know the distance an object has traveled in a certain amount of time?
Velocity Velocity= distance/time V=d/t

If you know the distance traveled and the time traveled can YOU determine an object and ACCELERATION?
no, you need to know its initial velocity to determine this; if initial velocity is zero then distance is 1/2 acceleration x time squared
If you know the constant velocity of a moving object what can you predict?
You can predict its motion until some force acts on it.
How do you know something is moving faster than some other object?
Calculate the average velocity for the objects.
What must you know about an object that is moving in a straight line to calculate its acceleration?
You must know its mass and the net force. If it is moving at constant velocity, the net force is zero and the acceleration is zero.
