For any object to change its motion, it must be accelerated and experiences acceleration. Note that a change in motion is a change in velocity. The object either speeds up, slows down or changes direction, and one of those or some combination is a velocity change. Only acceleration will change velocity. We need to offer the reminder that velocity is speed with a direction vector attached to it. An object can travel at a constant speed and be changing direction. This is a change in velocity because of the change of direction. And a change in velocity is, as stated, initiated by acceleration.

Is variable Speed a motion?

It is not necessarily a motion in itself... Variable speed refers to something that can change speeds, or that the speeds can be changed. There are many things that can be variable speed.


Does motin occurs when there is a change in speed?

ans: do you mean motion? motion is the meaning to move relative to something else, and it occurs (or is seen to be occurring) when two objects pass each other that have different velocities (not necessarily changing velocities). Without this, you would not be able to perceive motion at all. Motion doesn't mean speed has to change, as that relates simply to acceleration.
