Motion refers to the change in position of an object over time, while speed is how fast an object is moving. Speed is a measure of how quickly an object covers a distance, typically measured in units like meters per second or miles per hour.

What does motion mean in science?

Motion in science refers to the change in position of an object with respect to a reference point. It can involve changes in speed, direction, or both. Motion is described using concepts such as speed, velocity, and acceleration.


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.


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.


What are the kinds of motion according to the change in direction and change in speed?

Motion can be classified into four types based on changes in direction and speed: Rectilinear motion: Motion along a straight line with constant speed. Uniform circular motion: Motion in a circular path at a constant speed. Accelerated motion: Motion with a change in speed but moving in a straight line. Curvilinear motion: Motion with changes in both speed and direction, following a curved path.


If the speed of an object does NOT change the object is traveling at a what?

It is travelling at a constant speed. This does not mean that there is no acceleration or that the direction of motion remains the same.

How is motion and speed related?

speed is a measure of the rate of motion.

What is the name for a planet's speed in its orbit?

It is the orbital velocity (speed and direction) or orbital speed (rate of motion). It is usually stated as "average orbital speed" but is actually "mean orbital speed."


Does motion occur when there is a change in speed?

Motion occurs when there is speed. A change of speed is not required.

What is speed of motion?

The average speed of motion is when speed is changing. Speed equals total distance divided by total travel time. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object's motion.
