Yes. For example, if you throw an object up into the air, this will happen when it reaches the highest point. At that moment, its velocity is zero; on the other hand, at any moment, the object is accelerating downward at 9.8 meters per square second.

Can object have zero acceleration and nonzero velocity at the same time.give example?
Yes, for example, a car moving at constant speed.
What has a velocity and acceleration vector in the same direction?
Any falling object has acceleration and velocity vectors in the same direction.
What is a moving object that has a velocity vector and acceleration vector in the same direction?
The net force is in the same direction as the acceleration of an object.
Which describes an object's velocity that changes by the same amount each second?
If the acceleration is constant, yes. However, the acceleration of an object can vary. The rate of change of acceleration is called jerk.
When An object speeds up it has what acceleration?
For an object's speed to change (increase or decrease), the object must be accelerating. If there is an acceleration, there is a non-zero net force acting on the object.note: Velocity and speed are different. An object's velocity can change without the speed changing. Example of this is centripetal acceleration. The object's velocity changes directions, thus the velocity changes. The magnitude (or speed), however, stays the same (if only a radial acceleration is present).

Yes, for example, a car moving at constant speed.
When the acceleration of an object is zero what is the velocity at the same time?
As long as acceleration is zero, the object's velocity is constant.
What has a velocity and acceleration vector in the same direction?
Any falling object has acceleration and velocity vectors in the same direction.
How does acceleration affect motion in the same direction?
It will increase the velocity of the the object in which the acceleration is applied.
What moving object speed up in what direct is the acceleration?
The acceleration is the same direction of the velocity
Can acceleration and velocity be the same?
No. Velocity is the change of location and accelarion is any change that occurs to the velocity of an object.
What is true when the velocity and the acceleration of an object are in the same direction?
In that case, the object speeds up.
If the acceleration of an object is in the same direction as the velocity what happens to the velocity of the object?
a = F/m, where a is acceleration, F is net force, and m is mass in kilograms.
What is the velocity on an object with no net force?
When there is no resultant force there is no acceleration therefore the velocity will stay the same.
How are speed velocity and acceleration are the same?
They all have to do with how fast an object is moving
What is a moving object that has a velocity vector and acceleration vector in the same direction?
The net force is in the same direction as the acceleration of an object.
Which describes an object's velocity that changes by the same amount each second?
If the acceleration is constant, yes. However, the acceleration of an object can vary. The rate of change of acceleration is called jerk.
