Why are you pressed against the car door while going around a curve?

Inertia. You want to go straight, the car (door) [you should be wearing seat belt] is forcing you to curve.


Why does a liquid curve around the edge of its container?

Liquids curve around the edge of containers because water molecules are what we as Chemists call "Free-form" molecules. Meaning they take the shape of the object in which it's contained.


Is it possible to run round an oval running track at constant velocity?

No, it is not. At a constant speed, yes. But velocity has a direction component, and by running on (following) a curve, a change of direction (and, therefore, velocity) will have to be made. Again, note that speed can stay the same, but velocity has a direction vector associated with it that cannot be ignored.


What is the difference between speed and acceleration?

Speed is the measurement of how fast your locationis changing. It is the scalar value of velocity, which is speed in a given direction. Velocity can change without a change in speed.Acceleration is the measurement of how fast your speed is changing. However, since acceleration is more precisely a change in velocity, you could experience acceleration without a change in speed, if your direction of motion changes. The occupants of a car traveling at constant speed around a curve will experience acceleration toward one side of the car.Speed is simply how fast a person is going at a particular instant in time. As long as you keep going at the same speed and in the same direction, then you have no acceleration. Conversely, acceleration can be defined as the process of changing speed. So, just as having zero speed means that one's position, or distance, does not change, so having zero acceleration means one speed does not change.The word speed refers to how fast one is moving but does not involve the concept of which direction one is moving. However, acceleration can be achieved by changing the direction of motion as well as by changing the rate of motion. The concept required is the idea of a vector, which is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. In an extreme case, moving in a circle at a constant speed does nothing to change speed, but does change the direction of motion, and so is a case where there is acceleration.


Are latitude and longitude lines curve or straight?

They curve with the curve of the Earth.

When a bike goes around a curve at the same speed as it was moving on a straight road it has uniform motion this statement is true or false and because?

The statement is false because when going around a curve, the motion is not in a uniform direction.


What are the different types of acceleration?

-- changing direction of motion, like around a curve or a corner -- slowing down -- speeding up


A car moves in uniform circular motion around a curve in the road What is the direction of the car's acceleration?

If the speed is constant, the acceleration is toward the center of the circle.


Driving around a curve what way the car want to go?

A curve to the left, the vehicle would go to the right with no steering. A curve to the right, the vehicle would go left with no steering. Because any object in motion will continue to go straight unless another force takes it in another direction.


When a bike goes around a curve at the same speed as it was moving on a straight road it has uniform motion.?

It goes in to uniform motion


When a bike goes around a curve at the same speed as it was moving on a straight road,it has uniform motion?

It goes in to uniform motion


When you go around a curve is your velocity changing?

Yes; although speed ( a scalar quantity) may be constant the velocity ( a vector with quantity and direction) is changing because the direction is changing


Is it true when a bike goes around a curve at the same speed as it was moving on a straight road it has uniform motion?

NO, Not Actually it is not moving with same speed as on straight road beacuse in circular path there is regular change of direction.


How do you draw a curve with straight lines?

While a curve is one continuous motion, you can create the illusion of a curve by using straight lines. In order to do this, draw a continuous pattern of short straight lines, while changing the direction of each line slightly.


What is curvillinear motion?

Curvilinear motion is the motion of an object in a curved path rather than a straight line. It involves changes in both speed and direction as the object moves along the curve. Examples of curvilinear motion include circular motion, parabolic motion, and elliptical motion.


If you are traveling around a curve at a constant speed of 30 km is the veiocity change?

Yes, the velocity is changing. Velocity is a quantity composed of the speed and the direction of motion. Constant velocity means: Constant speed, in a straight line. If the direction is changing, then the velocity is changing, even if the speed is constant.


Can something keep a constant velocity in a curve?

No. It can keep a constant SPEED in a curve. But if the direction changes, then that's a change of velocity, and the direction in a curve is constantly changing.
