Measurement of average amount of motion of molecules is?

The average amount of motion can be determined by the average speed or velocity of an object. The average speed can be calculated by the total distance divided by the total time. Speed is a scalar quantity. The average velocity can be calculated by the total displacement divided by the total time. Velocity is a vector.


The rate at which an object moves is called?

Velocity


Which physicist discovered the escape velocity of an object?

Escape velocity is easily calculated from Newton's laws of motion and universal gravitation.


How is motion related to velocity?

If an object is in motion it has a Velocity, which is speed and direction.


Is velocity a change in an objects motion?

Velocity is a change in an object's motion OR direction of motion.


When is the average velocity is equal to the instantaneous velocity?

Average velocity equals the average speed if (and only if) the motion is in the same direction. If not, the average speed, being the average of the absolute value of the velocity, will be larger.


Can a body in motion can never have zero average velocity?

While a body in motion cannot have zero average velocity, there are many examples where the average velocity - after selected intervals - is zero. For example: a pendulum, or any object under simple harmonic motion, after a complete number of cycles; a rotating object (point on a wheel or hand of a clock) after a whole number of circuits.


What is the motion of an object said to be if its velocity is constant?

the object is on uniform motion


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

the object's 'velocity'


What is a reference point When dealing with motion?

It means, with respect to what is the motion calculated. There is no "absolute" motion, or velocity; you always have to compare an object to some other object, to decide whether it is moving, and how quickly.


How can force be calculated?

V2 X W divided by 2G or 64. Or, Velocity squared times Weight of the object (in motion) divided by 2 Gravity or 64 equals the force of impact of the object in motion.


The speed and direction of an object's motion?

Its velocity vector.
