What is necessary to accurately and completely describe the motion of an object?

To completely describe the motion of an object you will need to know (1) the object's position in space and time, (2) the objects velocity, including the direction of travel, and (3) the object's acceleration, including the direction of acceleration.
However, the Heisenburg Uncertainty principle states that the more accurately you measure object's position, the less information you will have about its velocity, and vica versa. The more accurately you measure an object's velocity, the less information you will have about its position.

True or false A frame of reference is not necessary to describe motion accurately and completely?
It certainly is necessary. Sometimes it may be implied - for example, in practice, quite often planet Earth is used as a frame of reference. But whether it is implied, or explicitly stated, you always need a frame of reference to describe motion, or position.
Is the frame of reference needed to describe motion accurrately and completely?
That's right, motion cannot be measured unless you have some frame of reference within which to measure it.
Is friction necessary for motion?
No. Friction is just necessary for controlling motion.
Who Discovered Kinematics?
Galileo believed that it was necessary for a scientist to describe how things move (kinematics) before he can explain the causes of motion (dynamics).
What are the two factors that describe motion?
The two factors that describe motion are thing. :)

What are needed to completely describe velocity?
Speed and direction of motion.
What is necessary to describe motion?
Something has to either be pushed or pulled by force.

Describe motion as change of position?
Motion = dPosition/dt
How can you describe the motion of an object?
By the relative motion of neighbour objects
