·              The motion of an object can be described by its position, direction of motion and speed.

·              An unbalanced force acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion.

·               Objects moving in circles must experience force acting toward the center.

C 22.   Calculate the average speed of a moving object and illustrate the motion of objects in graphs of distance over time.
