What else can I help you with?
What is the noun of accelerate?
The noun forms for the verb to accelerate are accelerator, acceleration, and the gerund, accelerating.
The measure of how fast a velocity is changing at a specific instant is known as?
The rate of change of velocity is known as acceleration. This can come in different forms (linear / nonlinear acceleration, angular acceleration ect).
True or false a negative slope on the velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is not accelerating?
False. A negative slope on a velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is decelerating, not that it is not accelerating. Acceleration and deceleration are both forms of acceleration, but in opposite directions.
The force exerted on an objectis is related in a linear fashion to the acceleration of the object?
Yes, the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it. this means that, as the net force acting on the object increases, the acceleration of the object increases; thus, the function forms a linear pattern.
Is radial acceleration the same as centripetal acceleration?
No, radial acceleration and centripetal acceleration are not the same. Radial acceleration is the acceleration directed towards the center of a circle, while centripetal acceleration is the acceleration that keeps an object moving in a circular path.
What is the difference between gravitational acceleration and acceleration?
Gravitational acceleration is simply acceleration due to gravity.
What is the rate at which an object velocity changes?
Acceleration
What is the differences between tangential acceleration and centripetal acceleration?
Tangential acceleration is the acceleration in the direction of motion of an object, while centripetal acceleration is the acceleration towards the center of a circular path. Tangential acceleration changes an object's speed, while centripetal acceleration changes its direction.
What is the difference between centripetal acceleration and tangential acceleration in circular motion?
Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration directed towards the center of a circular path, while tangential acceleration is the acceleration along the tangent of the circle, perpendicular to the centripetal acceleration.
What are some common questions about acceleration in physics?
Some common questions about acceleration in physics include: What is acceleration? How is acceleration calculated? What are the different types of acceleration? How does acceleration relate to velocity and distance traveled? How does acceleration affect motion and forces?
Is it possible to experience centripetal acceleration but not tangential acceleration?
Yes, it is possible to experience centripetal acceleration without tangential acceleration. Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration directed towards the center of a circular path, while tangential acceleration is the acceleration along the direction of motion. In cases where an object is moving in a circular path at a constant speed, there is centripetal acceleration but no tangential acceleration.
How do you speed up?
To speed up, or slow down, or change direction, are all forms of acceleration (to a physicist at least; in the world of non-physicists, the term deceleration is generally used to describe slowing down, as distinct from acceleration) and as Isaac Newton pointed out, hundreds of years ago, force equals mass times acceleration, from which we may infer that what you need to speed up is force.
