What else can I help you with?
Do most object travel at a constant speed?
No, most objects do not travel at a constant speed. Factors like forces acting on the object, changes in direction, and external influences can cause an object's speed to vary. Objects may speed up, slow down, or change direction as they move.
An object will move at constant speed until?
An object will move at constant speed until acted upon by a force.
Is it correct to assume a motion of constant speed?
It depends on your setting. If the net force on an object is zero than the object will move with a constant speed. It will also move with a constant speed (but not velocity!) if a force forces the object to move in a circular motion.
Why do objects in space continue to move in a straight line at a constant speed?
Objects in space continue to move in a straight line at a constant speed due to the principle of inertia, which states that an object will remain in its current state of motion unless acted upon by an external force. In the vacuum of space, there is minimal resistance or friction to slow down or alter the object's motion, allowing it to maintain a straight path at a constant speed.
Why do objects go in a straight line after the centripital force is not exterted anymore?
That's just a special case of inertia. In general, objects have the tendency to move in a straight line, and at a constant speed, when no force is acting on them.
When is a body consider with constant speed?
when a body move with uniform speed
Why most of the object move in a straight line?
Objects will continue to move in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. This is known as Newton's First Law of Motion. When no other forces are present to change an object's motion, it will continue moving in a straight line at a constant speed.
When does a car move at a constant speed?
A car moves at a constant speed when the acceleration is zero. This means that neither the speed nor the direction of the car is changing. Once all external forces are balanced and there is no net force acting on the car, it will continue to move at a constant speed.
What happens of there is no friction?
Objects would move with constant velocity or stay at rest.
What velocity vector will move you 200 miles east in 4 hours traveling in a constant speed?
Positive velocity will move you 200 miles east in 4 hours traveling at a constant speed.
Can an object that move at a constant speed be accelerating?
No, an object moving at a constant speed cannot be accelerating. Acceleration is defined as a change in velocity over time, so if the speed is constant, there is no change in velocity and therefore no acceleration.
What is constant speed?
Constant speed is movement at a fixed (constant) distance per unit of time. The same amount of distance is covered by the object in the same amount of time at each measurement of that same interval. An example of an object moving at a constant speed might be an object in orbit. Something up their above the drag of the atmosphere will move at a constant speed, and will continuously move around the earth at the same speed. Note that velocity is speed with a direction vector. An object in orbit will have a constant speed, but its velocity will be constantly changing because it is constantly changing the direction it is moving.
