Acceleration is a change in speed or?
Acceleration is the change in an ogjects speed or a change in an objects direction of motion or both of these. If instead of speed you use the word velocity , which is both an object's speed and its direction of motion, then you could say "acceleration is the change in an objects velocity" and that would cover all the possibilities in one statement.
How does gravity keep objects in motion?
It doesn't. It will change an objects direction and/or speed but its inertia that keeps it moving.
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".
An unbalanced force will not change an objects motion?
If the forces on an object are unbalanced then the objects motion will change. It will start accelerating in the direction of the resultant force. Only objects that have balanced forces will remain in the same motion (stationary or moving at a constant speed).
What is a change in an objects position direction or location?
The change in an objects position is called motion.
The rate at which an object changes position is called what?
A change in position in a certain amount of time is called motion.
What includes the speed of the objects and the direction of its motion?
Speed and direction is called velocity.

The change in an objects position is called motion.
How are positions and motion related?
Motion is change of position. but remember both must always be related to some 'datum' position or state of motion.
When you both the speed and direction of an objects motion you know the objects?
translatory motion
What 3 kinds of change motion are called acceleration?
1). increase of speed 2). decrease of speed 3). change of direction of motion

What term can best describe both speed and direction of an objects motion?
That is called "velocity".
