Yes, but only for an instant.

Throw a rock or a Baseball straight up. After a while, it reaches its maximum height,

stops moving up, and starts moving down.

From the time it leaves your hand, its acceleration is constant. But at the very top

of the arc, where it's changing from moving up to moving down, at that instant, it

has zero velocity.

Can a body have zero velocity with nonzero accelaration?

Yes, but only for an instant.


Can there be a body moving with constant acceleration but zero velocity. With examples?

since accelaration is the change in velocity of an object per unit time......if velocity is zero then there is no acceleration.its nt possible


What is zero accelaration?

When an object is not accelerating at all. It has constant velocity.


When velocity zero and accelaration is possative what is the object in motion?

freefall


When velocity is zero and accelaration is possative what happen the object in motion?

freefall


What are the horizontal components of accelaration of a body when thrown horizontally with unifornm speed?

When a body is thrown horizontally with uniform speed, there is no change in the horizontal velocity, so the horizontal component of acceleration is zero. The only acceleration acting on the body is due to gravity in the vertical direction.


What will be accelaration if velocity is uniform?

For velocity to be truly uniform, the object must be moving in a straight line. If that is the case then the acceleration is Zero.


What is the accelaration of a car that travels in a straight line at a constant speed?

a = (v2-v1)/t if velocity never changes then acceleration is always zero


When the velocity of an object is zero then the object has?

Well I tell u like this velocity,v equalls accelaration * time. When v is 0 then accelaration,a and time becomes zero. When a is zero then force is zero then work is zero then Energy is zero then impulse and presrure is zero and when Energy is zero Heat is zero then heat capacity is zero and Magnetic induction is zero.ok any think more/ When the velocity of an object is zero, then the object has no motion at all. (But only according to the observer who says that its velocity is zero. If another observer happens to ride through the first observer's laboratory in a bus and make some measurements on the way, he would say that the object ... and the first observer ... have large and equal velocities.)


When a body move upward in a lift what will be effect on its weight?

When a body moves upward in a lift, its weight will temporarily increase. This is because the lift is exerting an upward force on the body, causing it to experience a higher apparent weight than when it is at rest.


If a car increases its velocity from zero to 100 km h in 10 s its accelaration is how many km h s?

100/10= 10


Describe the motion of a bus whose accelaration is zero but the speed is not zero?

It is slowing down. The bus is not picking up speed--accelerating--and its speed isn't zero, as it is not completely stopped. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The above answer is incorrect as slowing down indicates a negative acceleration not a zero one. The correct answer is that the bus is at a constant speed - any constant speed.
