That's simply called a change in velocity. On the other hand, the rate of change in velocity - how quickly velocity changes - is called acceleration.

Acceleration is the change in velocity, or delta v.

The rate at which an object changes position is called what?

A change in position in a certain amount of time is called motion.


When an objects speed of blank change it is called blank0 what are the answers to the blanks?

The speed is v and the starting speed is v0.


What are differences in speed called?

I'm uncertain about what you are seeking here. The change in an objects speed divided by the time required to change the speed would be the average acceleration.


What do you call it when an objects velocity changes?

A change in an objects velocity is called acceleration. Velocity is defined as an objects speed of travel AND its direction of travel. Acceleration can change only an objects speed, only its direction or both. If there is no acceleration acting on the object, then the velocity remains constant.


What do we call an objects resistance in speed or direction?

The resistance to a change in velocity is called "inertia". It is related to the mass of an object.


What is the change in objects position?

The change in an objects position is called motion.


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.


What do you called if the Speed of objects less than the speed of sound?

Subsonic


An objects speed at a particular moment in time is called?

Instantaneous Speed.


What is called speed of an object at a given instant?

An objects speed at any particular moment in time is known as its instantaneous velocity. This is the rate of change or the derivative of the objects position.


What includes the speed of the objects and the direction of its motion?

Speed and direction is called velocity.


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.
