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.

∙ 14y agoIt is referred to as an object's velocity. Speed, or rate of travel/magnitude, are combined with a direction ([up], [down], angles, etc.). This is often used in navigation, as well as in physical sciences such as astronomy.

∙ 6y agoWhen you know the speed and the direction in which the object is moving, that term is called Velocity, speed + direction.
the SI unit for velocity is m\s (metre per second)

If an object accelerates in the same direction in which it is moving how is its speed affected?
The speed of the object will increase.
What describes an object and speed and direction?
As regards a moving object, we call the measure of the speed and direction it is moving its velocity.
How are velocity and acceleration different?
acceleration is the increase of speed in a moving object. velocity is the speed and direction of a moving object.
If an object accelerates in the same direction which it is moving how is it speed affected?
The speed of the object will increase.
What happens to the speed of moving object when it is pushed in the direction of motion?
The speed increases. The object accellerates positively in the direction of motion.
If an object accelerates in the same direction in which it is moving how is its speed affected?
The speed of the object will increase.
What happen to the speed of moving object when it is pushed in the direction of motion?
When a moving object is pushed in the direction of its motion the speed of the object increases
What happened to the speed of moving object when it is pushed in the direction of motion?
When a moving object is pushed in the direction of its motion the speed of the object increases
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 describes an object and speed and direction?
As regards a moving object, we call the measure of the speed and direction it is moving its velocity.
What is the speed of an object moving on a particular direction?
The speed of an object moving in a particular direction is called the velocity and it's a vector, that is, it has magnitude and direction. Speed is the scalar part of velocity.
How are velocity and acceleration different?
acceleration is the increase of speed in a moving object. velocity is the speed and direction of a moving object.
When do you not feel the speed of any object?
When you are moving with the same speed as the object and in the same direction.
If an object accelerates in the same direction which it is moving how is it speed affected?
The speed of the object will increase.
What does newtons first law say about a moving object if the forces on the object are balanced?
The object will maintain its speed and direction or the object will not change its speed or direction.
What happens to the speed of moving object when it is pushed in the direction of motion?
The speed increases. The object accellerates positively in the direction of motion.
Does speed tell us what direction an object is moving?
Speed is a scalar quantity and has only magnitude and not direction. Hence, speed cannot tell us what direction an object is moving. However, velocity which is the vector equivalent of speed, can tell us the direction.
