Acceleration is defined as the rate change of position true or false?
Scout3ad
Acceleration (ack-sell-uh-RAY-shun) is can be absolute, angular, and coriolis.
All three are accelerations because they change position/speed over time.
Velocity is a measure of distance moved over time. Acceleration is velocity that is changing (speeding up or slowing down, or changing direction)
Absolute: The speed continually changes. (A car speeding up)
Angular: The direction continually changes. (A planet circling the Sun in orbit)
Coriolis: A combination of the above, where a particle changes its distance (absolute) to the center of a whirling mass (Angular).

Velocity is the slope of the acceleration vs time graph?
False
Is science best defined as a body of knowledge true or false?
False. It's a technique used to understand reality.
Is most scientific ideas are absolute and not subject to change true or false?
false
True or false Scientific investigations always follow a series of rigidly defined steps?
Yes.
True or false .During a chemical change atoms are lost or gained to the new substance?
False
A change in the position of an object when compared to a reference point is defined as speed.?
false
True or false acceleration is a change in motion?
'Acceleration' is a change in the speed and/or direction of motion.
Acceleration is the change in distance over time True or false?
False. Acceleration is a change of speed or direction over time.
Is it true or false that balanced forces can change an object's direction?
It is false. Change of direction is acceleration, which can only be produced by unbalanced forces.
Acceleration will only speed up an object True or false?
False. At least the way "acceleration" is described in physics, acceleration involves any change in velocity - so the "accelerating" object can speed up, slow down, or simply change direction.
Is it true or false that acceleration can only occur when the speed of an object changes?
No. Acceleration is change of velocity. It occurs when an object changes speed and/or direction.
Velocity is the change of speed and/or direction of an object?
FALSE. Acceleration is the change of speed and/or direction of an object.
Is vector quantity acceleration?
no, acceleration is not a vector quantity. its false
Is Acceleration is the magnitude of average velocity true or false?
False
Acceleration is a vector quantity?
no, acceleration is not a vector quantity. its false
An object is accelerating if its blank or speed changes?
If an object's speed is changing ... either growing or shrinking ... or the direction of its motion is changing, or any combination of these changes, then the object is said to be accelerated.
True of false The acceleration of an object is inversely proportional to the net force acting on it?
False. The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it. Newton's 2nd Law: F = ma where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. __________________________________________________ The acceleration of a body is "inversely" proportional to its mass.
