For the most part, yes; once at terminal velocity, there is no acceleration, so it has direction.
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.
No. A velocity indicates a speed and direction. An acceleration is a change in speed or direction.
Yes, a body moving with a constant velocity in the east direction can still have acceleration in the west direction if an external force is applied in that direction. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so even if the velocity is constant, a change in direction or magnitude of the velocity can still result in acceleration.
-- The acceleration is directed from the body to the center of the circle. -- The velocity is tangent to the circle at the place where the body is. That direction is also perpendicular to the acceleration at that moment.
acceleration of a falling body is 9.8m/s*s and its direction is vertically downward.
A body's acceleration is positive when its velocity is increasing over time. This can happen when the body is speeding up in the same direction as its velocity, or when it is slowing down in the opposite direction of its velocity. Both scenarios result in a positive acceleration value.
If that happens, the body's speed will decrease.
Yes, it is possible for a body to have zero velocity but still have acceleration. This occurs when the body is changing its direction of motion, even though its speed remains constant. The acceleration in this case is due to the change in direction, not speed.
Acceleration of a body is the rate at which the velocity of the body changes over time. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude (how much the velocity changes) and direction (the direction in which the velocity is changing). The standard unit for acceleration is meters per second squared (m/s^2).
Yes a body moving with some velocity in the direction of east have acceleration in the west because when the body will stop or exerts brakes so the body will move a little back and acceleration will be produced in the opposite direction which is west.
When the velocity of a body is doubled, its acceleration remains the same if the direction of motion remains constant. Velocity is the rate of change of position of an object over time, while acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time. If the velocity is doubled while the direction remains constant, the acceleration does not change.
Yes. Acceleration is change in velocity. Velocity is either change in speed or change in direction. If you fix the speed, change in direction can account for change in velocity, i.e. acceleration.
