• velocity
• size
• motion

When you know both the speed and direction of an object's motion, you know the

• average speed of the object
• acceleration of the object
• distance the object has traveled
• velocity of the object

The rate at which velocity changes is called

• speed
• direction
• acceleration
• motion

The correct equation to calculate speed is

• distance/time
• time/distance
• distance x time
• distance/time²
