-- Mark its location as you start your stopwatch.
-- After some time has passed, mark its location again
as you stop the stopwatch.
-- Measure the distance between the two marks.
-- Read the elapsed time on the stopwatch.
-- Divide (distance traveled)/(time to travel the distance) .
The quotient is the object's average speed during the interval.
The shorter the measurement interval, the closer the result is
to an instantaneous speed.
What else can I help you with?
Does motion create speed?
Motion and speed are synonymous terms, with just a slight difference of emphasis. Speed suggests fast motion. Other than that, they are the same thing. Speed is a form of motion, so in that sense, motion does crreate speed. Obviously, an object that is not moving has a speed of zero.
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 motion affect the speed of an object?
Short answer: yes. An object in "motion" has a "speed" simply by virtue of its being in motion. An object possessing a speed is inherently in motion. In this sense they have similar meanings. Speed is a rate of change in position. Motion is a change in position (in progress). In this sense, speed is more specific than motion in that speed has a quantitative value. Conversely, there can be no "speed" without "motion". To be complete, "velocity" is even more specific than speed in that it contains a rate of change in position together with a direction. That is, speed is a "scalar" quantity, and "velocity" is a vector quantity.
What is a change in an object's motion called?
A change in speed or direction of motion is called "acceleration". If an object's speed or direction of motion changes, then the object is "accelerated".
What changes can a force produce in the motion of an object?
it is speed of motion and direction of motion
What do you need to find the speed of an object in motion?
radar gun
What is the rate of motion of an object in linear motion?
That is the object's 'speed'.

What is a rate of motion of an object in a linear motion?
That's the object's 'speed'.
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 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.
What changes can a force produce in the motion of an object?
it is speed of motion and direction of motion
