distance
The speed of an object is expressed as a distance traveled per unit of time. When referring to an "object," the formula is v = d/t, where v = speed (meters/second), d = distance traveled (meters), and t = time (second) When referring to travelling systems such as cars, bicycles, or aircraft, it is more appropriate to use a similar formula except that distance traveled is expressed in kilometers or miles and time is expressed in hours.
The physics formula for speed is s = d x t whered is the distance traveled in a period of timet is the amount of time it took to travel the distances is the speed traveled
Rate of change of position = speedIf you also reveal the direction of the speed, then you have velocity.
To determine speed from a distance-time graph, you can calculate the slope of the line on the graph. The slope is defined as the change in distance (vertical axis) divided by the change in time (horizontal axis). A steeper slope indicates a higher speed, while a flat line indicates no movement. The speed can be expressed as the ratio of distance traveled to the time taken, and it remains constant for linear sections of the graph.
you can find the distance when you know your speed and the time you traveled
Speed is the rate of change of position expressed as distance traveled per unit of time. It measures how fast an object is moving from one point to another.
That would be called a "constant speed".(Not 'velocity', since no information about the direction of its motion has been given.)
No, the change in position of an object compared to a reference point is defined as displacement. Speed, on the other hand, is the rate at which an object covers distance in a specific direction, usually expressed as distance traveled per unit of time.
The distance traveled by an object changes over time based on its speed and direction of motion. This change can be described by the object's velocity, which is the rate of change of its position with respect to time.
Speed is the rate of motion usually expressed as distance traveled per unit of time.Velocity is the rate of change of position. Both speed and direction are required. Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity. In common speech, acceleration is only for an increase in speed; a decrease in speed is deceleration. In physics, any increase or decrease in speed or change of direction is referred to as acceleration.

The moon's acceleration is expressed as a change in direction.
Speed --- actually, if your question is 'position' over time, there is no answer since position is a vector quantity. And position divided by time will still yield a vector quantity-- velocity. If the question asks for change in distance over time, then the answer is speed. --gh ---
The word that means distance traveled per unit time is "speed." Speed is a measure of how quickly an object moves from one place to another, expressed as the distance traveled per unit of time.
Average speed is the distance traveled divided by the time traveled. Average velocity is the displacement divided by the time traveled. Displacement is change in position, or final position (df) minus initial position (di). Let's say you traveled from your home to the mall and then back again. The total distance traveled was 30 miles, and the total time driven was 1 hour. Average speed = distance traveled/time traveled = 30 miles/1 hour = 30mi/hr or 30mph. Average velocity = (df - di)/time traveled = 0 mile/1 hour = 0 mi/hr or 0mph.* *In this case the final position and the initial position are the same (your house), so the displacement is zero. Something to think about: When a Nascar driver races 500 miles around an oval track, his average speed might be 160mph, but his average velocity when he finishes the race is 0mph.
The speed of an object is expressed as a distance traveled per unit of time. When referring to an "object," the formula is v = d/t, where v = speed (meters/second), d = distance traveled (meters), and t = time (second) When referring to travelling systems such as cars, bicycles, or aircraft, it is more appropriate to use a similar formula except that distance traveled is expressed in kilometers or miles and time is expressed in hours.
Motion is the change in an object's position.
A change in position in a certain amount of time is called motion.
