Because 0 times any number equals 0
If the applied force is constant, the acceleration will also be constant. To know the actual amount of acceleration, you divide the force by the mass.
If the velocity is constant, then the acceleration is zero.
Acceleration increases
The hands of a clock move at a constant speed, not slowing or speeding up. Therefore, the acceleration is a constant 0 rad/s2
a=dv/dt. By definition, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. In mathematical notation, it is given as the formula stated above. Two special cases: 1. When acceleration is constant: The rate of change is a constant. Therefore, it can be calculated by: a=(vf - vi) / t where a is acceleration vf is final velocity vi is initial velocity and t is time taken 2. When velocity is constant: Velocity is not changing. The rate of change of velocity is zero. Acceleration has to be zero. * * * * * Note that velocity and acceleration are both VECTORS. Therefore, an object going round in a circle, at CONSTANT speed, has velocity and acceleration that are changing all the time - because the direction of motion is changing.
There is not enough information to answer the question. The answer depends onis the object travelling at constant velocity?is the acceleration constant?If it is an object travelling with constant acceleration, which three of the following four variables are knows: initaial velocity, final velocity, acceleration and time.
There is a huge difference between constant speed and constant acceleration. Constant speed is when the object is travelling constant, no change in its velocity and acceleration or in other words no extra force to speed up. Constant acceleration when the object is acceleration constant, it means that the speed of the object is change at the same rate each second. The acceleration rate at which the object is travelling is constant. for example, when a car is stationary at a traffic light and it starts acceleration, picking up speed but the rate of acceleration will not constant because the amount of force applied differs each second due to the acceleration rate.
No it cannot. It is either one or the other. For constant velocity, acceleration must be 0, meaning there is no acceleration happening here. If there is constant acceleration, then the velocity is constantly changing.
well, something has to be pushed by a constantly growing force. Constant acceleration would occur for example if you drop something in a vacuum. Dropping something in normal circumstances is a nearly constant acceleration too.
no because constant acceleration describes and object speeding up at an equal rate wheras constant speed describes an object travelling at the same speed over time. By the way i h8 physics don't ever do it
It is travelling at a constant speed. This does not mean that there is no acceleration or that the direction of motion remains the same.
It means the automobile is travelling at a constant speed in a particular direction.
It is travelling at a constant speed. This does not mean that there is no acceleration or that the direction of motion remains the same.
An example of a change in acceleration while traveling at constant speed can be observed when a vehicle moves in a circular path or takes a turn. Although the speed remains constant, the direction of the motion changes, which results in a change in velocity. Since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, this alteration in direction causes a change in acceleration, even when the speed is constant.
The speed or velocity of a train has no bearing on its acceleration.
Its acceleration is zero, which is constant
If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
