Compare and contrast speed and acceleration?
-- "Speed" is the rate at which distance changes. -- "Velocity" is speed along with the direction of motion. -- "Acceleration" is the rate at which velocity changes, including the direction of the change.
If an object is moving at a constant velocity what do you know about its acceleration?
"Acceleration" means change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero.
Is it possible for a body to have acceleration when moving constant speed and constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
Is there an acceleration when an object traveling at constant velocity and why?
No. Acceleration is change of velocity / time. If there is no change in velocity, there is no acceleration.
How is speed velocity and acceleration alike?
Acceleration is the derivative of velocity. In other words, acceleration is the rate at which the velocity is changing.
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.
What is the change in velocity over time?
acceleration a----->velocity=acceleration x time: v=a x t
Is it possible for a body to have an acceleration when moving with constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
How does acceleration and velocity differ?
Acceleration is the rate at which velocity is changing.
Does velocity differ from acceleration?
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
What is your acceleration if you have a constant velocity?
If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
Is velocity the same as acceleration?
Both are vectors. But acceleration and velocity have different dimensions. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
