The problem with answering this question is that speed is usually measured relative to something that is considered "stationary"--i.e. the observer.

At the speeds currently thought to be the highest possible--near the speed of light (see relativity theory)--it becomes more and more difficult both to locate and track these objects, and to measure their speed.

the theoretically correct answer is probably "anything falling into a black hole". However I think the fastest objects we observed are quasars. Unless you consider a photon (a 'particle' of light) to be an "object".

What is an object speed and direction?

in terms of speed and direction , in what ways can an object accelerate


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 is the definition of speed of an object and specification of its direction of motion?

If the speed of an object is cited and its direction of motion is also cited, we have the velocity of the object. Velocity is speed plus a direction vector.


Velocity is the change of speed andor direction of an object?

Not exactly. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object's motion.If either speed or direction changes, then the change is the object's 'acceleration'.


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 are the speed and direction of travel?

Speed and direction together are an object's velocity.


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 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.


Which of these would change the direction of an object but not affect the object's speed?

Circular motion would change the direction of an object but would not affect the object's speed.


What describes the direction and speed of an object?

Velocity describes the speed and direction of an object.velocityvelocity


The speed of an object and the direction of its motion?
