How to use "Impelled" in context?

There is no one definitive answer to whether or not an object is "impelled" by something else. Oftentimes, the answer is simply that an object is moving due to the action of another object, but there are occasions when an object is actively pushed or pulled by another object. In either case, an object that is "impelled" is moving due to the action of another object.

The most common type of "impelled" motion is travel, where an object moves due to the action of another object. In the case of travel, the object is moved forward, backward, left, or right.
