No. Well, such a body can have zero velocity for a brief instant, but it won't stay at such a velocity, because "acceleration" implies that the velocity changes.

When a body has velocity no constant has acceleration or no?

Yes. If a body has a constant velocity there is no acceleration, but if the velocity is changing there is acceleration present.


When a body has constnat velocity what is the acceleration?

When a body has constant velocity, the acceleration is zero. This is because acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes, so if velocity is constant, there is no change and hence no acceleration.


If a body is acted by a constant force the body will have uniform?

"acceleration"


A body falls frreely what is constant?

The acceleration is constant in this case.


Can the direction of the body change when the acceleration is constant?

Yes, the direction of the body can change even when the acceleration is constant. This is because acceleration is a vector quantity that includes both magnitude and direction. As long as there is a change in velocity, the body's direction can be altered, even if the magnitude of acceleration remains constant.


Can direction of velocity of a body change when its acceleration is constant?

Yes, the direction of velocity of a body can change even when its acceleration is constant. This can happen if the acceleration and initial velocity of the body are not aligned in the same direction. The body will still experience a change in velocity due to the constant acceleration, which can lead to a change in direction.


Why is acceleration zero when the body is moving with a constant velocity?

Acceleration is the CHANGE in velocity; you're assuming CONSTANT velocity. So the acceleration is zero.


Can a body be in motion but 0 acceleration?

Yes, a body can be in motion but have zero acceleration if it is moving at a constant speed in a straight line. Acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity, so if velocity is constant, acceleration is zero even though the body is in motion.


Does the distance affect the body's acceleration moving in a straight line whose accelerationis constant?

No, distance does not affect the body's acceleration when moving in a straight line with constant acceleration. The acceleration of an object depends only on the force acting on it, not the distance it travels. The acceleration will remain constant unless a different force is applied.


If a body is moving with constant velocity is it moving with constant acceleration?

An object moves with constant velocity when there is no net force acting upon it. If there are no forces acting on an object, or if the forces acting on it "cancel out" leaving a net force of zero acting on the object, it will have zero acceleration. With a zero acceleration, the velocity of the object will be constant.


Is it possible when a body to have acceleration when moving constant speed?

Yes. "Acceleration" does not mean "speeding up". It means any change in speedor direction of motion. If the body is moving on a curve, even at a constant speed,its direction is changing, so there is acceleration.


Is the constant acceleration of a free falling body?

YES
